Raiders
The Raiders were one of the many teams rumored to be interested in a quarterback during the draft, but ultimately left without adding any rookies to the room. Las Vegas GM Tom Telesco noted they were considering taking a quarterback, but it didn’t work out in the first round and they didn’t consider it much after that.
“On the third day? No. Really not the second day either. First day, yes. But not after that,” Telesco said, via Myles Simmons of Pro Football Talk. “[I]f we felt there was a quarterback out there that was better than we had, or could potentially be better, certainly we would have done something [about] it. But it didn’t line up.”
