Thanks to the tiebreakers, the Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> earned the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft with a 3-14 record. Raiders ownership let head coach Pete Carroll go and whoever they bring in will have to start from scratch on offense to build a unit around running back Ashton Jeanty and tight end Brock Bowers. Las Vegas was among the teams we considered to be prime candidates to trade up for a quarterback but now they can just sit tight and pick between Oregon’s Dante Moore and Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza.<\/p>\n

We have consistently had Moore slightly ahead of Mendoza, although we don’t see either guy being a Day One star. Moore feels like a guy who can benefit the most from the talent in Las Vegas and should have a year to develop.<\/p>\n

We also landed Moore a target in the third round with speedy wide receiver Chris Brazzell II. He’s a great deep threat and can pull safeties out of the box to open up the field for Jeanty and Bowers. We didn’t forget defense, landing potential rookie starters at defensive tackle and cornerback.<\/p>\n

First round – QB Dante Moore – Oregon<\/p>\n

Second round – DT A’Mauri Washington – Oregon<\/p>\n

Third round – WR Chris Brazzell II – Tennessee<\/p>\n

Fourth round – CB Malik Muhammad – Texas<\/p>\n

Fourth round – OT Max Iheanachor – Arizona State<\/a><\/p>\n

Fourth round – G Keylan Rutledge – Georgia Tech<\/p>\n

Fifth round – TE Oscar Delp – Georiga<\/p>\n
