The quarterback for the Las Vegas Raiders does not seem to be on the roster. A fourth-round pick the previous year, Aidan O’Connell is on a two-year contract with Gardner Minshew.

It didn’t work out for the team to choose a quarterback first overall this year. The Raiders decided to load up offensively, drafting two offensive linemen and a tight end with their first three draft picks after failing to locate a viable franchise quarterback.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is entering a contract year and there’s a chance he won’t sign an extension. If he hits free agency, there will be no shortage of teams vying for his services. Pro Football Focus and The 33rd Team’s Marcus Mosher threw out the idea that the Raiders would be an appealing landing spot for Prescott if he leaves the Cowboys in a May 7 X post.

Prescott is coming off his best season in the NFL as he finished second in MVP voting. However, the Cowboys could have major salary cap issues and may decide it’s better to start over at quarterback than to give Prescott a record-setting contract. If that happens, the Raiders would have to be one of the teams he’d consider.

PFF Details How Las Vegas Raiders Are Set Up for QB

The Raiders have been in quarterback limbo since Derek Carr was benched during the 2022 season. Finding a franchise quarterback is never easy and it’s proving especially difficult for Las Vegas.

While they try to remain patient regarding the future at quarterback, Dalton Wasserman of Pro Football Focus detailed why the Raiders have set up their next signal-caller well.

“Either Gardner Minshew or Aidan O’Connell is going to love throwing to former Georgia Bulldog Brock Bowers,” Wasserman wrote in a May 6 column. “The two-time John Mackey Award winner is one of the greatest college tight ends of all time. His ability after the catch is reminiscent of George Kittle. He could immediately pair with Michael Mayer to form one of the NFL’s premier tight end duos.

“Las Vegas also needed help on the offensive line. Second-round pick Jackson Powers-Johnson should start immediately at right guard. He was college football’s best center last season, but he also brings ample guard experience and is an excellent pass protector no matter where he plays. The Raiders will find a franchise quarterback sometime in the future, but they did an excellent job adding talent elsewhere early in this year’s draft.”
