Raiders Expected to Pursue Quarterbacks, Explore Trades in Offseason

The Las Vegas Raiders are at a crucial juncture as they seek to stabilize their quarterback position following a disappointing 4-13 season. Newly appointed head coach Pete Carroll is considering several potential candidates, including Sam Darnold, Aaron Rodgers, and Justin Fields, while a reunion with Russell Wilson remains uncertain. With ample cap space, the Raiders could also target free agents like Chris Godwin to bolster their receiving corps, especially following the trade of Davante Adams. Additionally, the team faces decisions regarding star defensive end Maxx Crosby, whose future is uncertain under Carroll’s new regime. The Raiders' strategy this offseason will focus on building a competitive roster through free agency, trades, and leveraging their high draft pick. The prospect of acquiring Deebo Samuel through a trade has also emerged as a possibility, potentially reshaping the Raiders' offensive dynamics.
