Raiders weigh drafting QB Shedeur Sanders after Smith trade

The Las Vegas Raiders have questions to consider as they approach the NFL Draft. After trading for quarterback Geno Smith, they must decide whether to invest another high pick in a quarterback like Shedeur Sanders from Colorado. The Raiders traded their No. 92 draft pick to acquire Smith, who will turn 35 in October. This raises the possibility that they may want to find a younger replacement for him. Reports suggest that Tom Brady, a minority owner of the team, has a lot of respect for Sanders. Recently, Sanders was seen with Smith, leading to speculation about them possibly teaming up. Some experts believe that if Sanders falls to the Raiders at the sixth pick, they might have to consider drafting him. If they do not find a quarterback they like in the first round, the Raiders should keep looking at options for the second round. They need to plan for the future, especially with Smith being an average quarterback at this stage in his career. Brady and the team's leaders need to determine if they want to invest heavily in the quarterback position. This decision could influence how teams approach quarterback needs in the NFL moving forward.
