Analyst says Michigan Wolverines star would be great for Raiders and 'screams Pete Carroll defense'

Just one calendar year removed from winning the NCAA championship, the Michigan Wolverines should be pretty well-represented in this year's NFL draft. Of their best prospects, three of them are defenders — cornerback Will Johnson and defensive tackles Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant. Johnson is considered the second-best cornerback prospect in the nation this year behind Colorado's Travis Hunter. Joel Klatt, a college football and NFL draft analyst for Fox Sports, considers Johnson a great fit for the Las Vegas Raiders, who recently hired Pete Carroll to be their new head coach.

Latest NFL insider hints Raiders may be involved in Matthew Stafford bidding war

The Las Vegas Raiders need a quarterback if they even want to think about competing for a division title in the brutal AFC West, and no signal-caller out there would help them more than Los Angeles Rams standout Matthew Stafford. After weeks of speculation linking Stafford to the Raiders and some extra fuel being thrown on that fire in recent weeks due to Tom Brady's front office influence, it would seem that new head coach Pete Carroll and GM John Spytek are trying their best to prove things will be different under this regime.

Raiders showing interest in $160 million Super Bowl-winning quarterback

The Las Vegas Raiders are in a familiar position once again in 2025, as the team is searching for a new starting quarterback after striking out on multiple signal-callers over the past few seasons. The list of failed quarterback experiments includes Jimmy Garoppolo, Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell. Ideally, the Raiders stop going with the quick-fix route and find a long-term solution in the 2025 NFL Draft. As a result, Las Vegas could look to sign or trade for another veteran quarterback this offseason - and it appears such a move is indeed on the table.

Where the Raiders Excelled the Most This Past Season

There were few positives from the Las Vegas Raiders' 4-13 campaign, which included a 10-game losing streak and ended with the Raiders firing former general manager Tom Telesco and former head coach Antonio Pierce. The Raiders were ravaged by injuries to some of their most critical players on offense and defense. Las Vegas was not expected to have a chance to select Bowers in last season's NFL Draft, as most draft experts believed Bowers was at least a top-10 pick.

Rams QB Stafford Could Save the Raiders from Themselves

The Las Vegas Raiders need a quarterback and have multiple ways of securing one. Las Vegas owns the No. 6 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft and about $100 million in cap space for free agency.

A Look at Raiders' Safeties, Impending Decisions

The Las Vegas Raiders will be one of the most active during free agency. The legal tampering period begins in a few weeks, and new general manager John Spytek has several important decisions to make. The Raiders have over $92 million in cap space to spend, second only to the New England Patriots. This financial flexibility and several selections in the 2025 NFL Draft give the Raiders a great foundation to build a team.

Six key free agent decisions facing Raiders in 2025 offseason

Pete Carroll made it clear during his introductory news conference this past month that he wants the Las Vegas Raiders to start winning "immediately." In Carroll and new general manager John Spytek's quest to turn around the franchise after three straight losing seasons, they have a bevy of roster decisions to make. Las Vegas has a handful of needs, especially at quarterback, plus 17 players who are becoming unrestricted free agents at the start of the new league year on March 12. The Raiders are projected to have the second-most cap space, according to Spotrac, which should help their efforts to field a competitive roster for the 2025 campaign.

REPORT: Raiders' Front Office Ready to Make a Splash

REPORT: Raiders Land Veteran RB in Recent Prediction

The Las Vegas Raiders were well known to have a weak running game last season, as they ranked in dead last in the NFL in average rushing yards per game. While the Raiders obtain youthful options such as Sincere McCormick and Dylan Laube, the cause might need some strong veteran leadership. Both Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah were brought in to be those veteran running back options, but they did not consistently provide for the franchise.

Raiders encouraged to trade for NFC quarterback before NFL Draft

The Las Vegas Raiders are at a crossroads regarding their quarterback situation. Holding the sixth overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the team is in a precarious position, as the top three teams all have significant quarterback needs. With only three clear first-round talents at the position, there's no guarantee that the Raiders will land their preferred signal-caller. That uncertainty has fueled speculation that the Raiders could pursue a veteran quarterback instead—with Kirk Cousins emerging as an ideal target. The Raiders' new leadership duo of head coach Pete Carroll and offensive coordinator Chip Kelly is expected to prioritize a strong run game and efficient play-action passing—a philosophy that perfectly aligns with Cousins' skill set.

Why the Raiders Should Avoid Former Pro Bowl RB in Free Agency

The Las Vegas Raiders need to add weapons at every position except for tight end this offseason, and perhaps no need is more pressing for them than running back. The Raiders ranked last in the NFL in rushing offense this past year, averaging a meager 79.8 yards per game. Maybe that shouldn't be too surprising considering they watched running back Josh Jacobs walk via free agency last March, but they were expecting bigger things from Zamir White. Unfortunately, White was a huge disappointment, and while Sincere McCormick provided Las Vegas with some life during the second half, it's clear that the Raiders need some help at the position.

Raiders projected $20 million free agent could leave to reunite with former team

The Tennessee Titans are a team that has many needs this offseason. The team finished with a dismal 3-14 record in 2024 and will have the first pick in the 2025 NFL Draft as a result. In addition to having the top pick, the Titans are also projected to have an ample amount of cap space. Over the Cap currently projects the Titans to have around $51 million in cap space, which ranks 11th in the league.

Jets predicted to leapfrog Raiders via trade, draft elite quarterback prospect

As the New York Jets turn the page to a new chapter in franchise history after the hire of head coach Aaron Glenn, the team will do so without quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who the team announced won't be back in 2025. Now, the Jets are in the same boat they were before Rodgers came aboard for two seasons, with the team looking for a new starting quarterback. In his latest mock draft for NFL.com, Gennaro Fillice has the Jets making a move up past the Las Vegas Raiders via a trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars for the No. 5 pick, which they then use on Colorado's Shedeur Sanders.

NFL media thinks Raiders top free agent could be underpriced on market

By most accounts, the top free agent set to hit the market from the Raiders is safety Tre’von Moehrig. One such account was ESPN recently who had him as one of just two Raiders free agents in the top 50, coming in at 13.


It makes it all the more interesting that Kevin Patra at NFL media just listed Moehrig among those players who he thinks will be underpriced on the open market.


This could be a swing-and-miss on my part, as Moehrig might have a stronger market than I anticipate. However, GMs have mostly eschewed spending on safeties in free agency in recent years. If they do so again, Moehrig could offer some C.J. Gardner-Johnson-type dividends. A playmaker who has improved every season, Moehrig showed versatility in the past two years, playing more toward the line of scrimmage (104 tackles in 2024). He’s generated five INTs, 18 passes defended and three sacks since the beginning of the 2023 campaign. At 25, he’s the type of still-growing, multi-talented safety teams should want in their secondary.


This is just to say that Moehrig is worth more than he will fetch, which speaks highly of his talents. The question is how hard the Raiders will push to try and keep him off that open market. And if Moehrig will test it to see what kind of market he will have.


Both Moehrig and fellow safety Marcus Epps are set to become free agents. So too is slot cornerback Nate Hobbs, who should also be a high priority for the Raiders to bring back.

Insider Expects Raiders to Make Major Move With Maxx Crosby

The Las Vegas Raiders are entering an absolutely pivotal offseason that will almost surely determine the direction of their franchise for the next five years, and whether or not Maxx Crosby will be a part of it is starting to become a question. Crosby has spent his entire career with the Raiders since entering the NFL as a fourth-round draft pick in 2019, but some have wondered if his time in Las Vegas could be coming to an end. As a matter of fact, Crosby has said he is actually very optimistic about where things are headed in the desert.

Saints Projected To Trade $150 Million Four-Time Pro Bowler Back To Former Team

The NFL quarterback carousel is sure to be spinning fast and furious this winter, but the question is whether or not the New Orleans Saints will hop on for the ride. Two offseasons ago, the Saints gave Derek Carr a four-year, $150 million deal after the Las Vegas Raiders, his longtime team, released him. The results have been a mixed bag, as Carr hasn't played poorly, but New Orleans has floundered at the bottom of the NFC South standings. Now that Carr is entering his age-34 season, the Saints have a decision to make.

Why Raiders Fans Shouldn't Fret Over Losing Out on Tee Higgins

Well, it's looking like the Cincinnati Bengals are going to slap a franchise tag on Tee Higgins for the second straight year, which basically eliminates any chance the Las Vegas Raiders have of landing him. Yes, the Raiders can still technically swing a trade for Higgins, but the Bengals are apparently very open to discussing a long-term deal with the wide receiver, which would remove him from the market entirely. First of all, the possibility always existed that Higgins could return to Cincinnati.

49ers predicted to pull off blockbuster trade for Raiders $94 million superstar

The San Francisco 49ers had a terribly disappointing 2024 campaign that saw the team fail to build on its Super Bowl appearance from the year prior en route to missing the playoffs entirely. Now, the Niners will look to reload in order to get back to the postseason, and one of the areas the team could address is the pass-rush after San Fran tallied just 37 sacks last season, tied for the ninth-fewest in the NFL. The team has both Nick Bosa and Leonard Floyd under contract in 2025, but Floyd is 32 years old and will be a free agent in 2026 and Bosa could use a long-term running mate. With that in mind, TWSN's Marissa Myers predicts the Niners will pull off a massive trade for Las Vegas Raiders superstar edge rusher Maxx Crosby this offseason.

Raiders free agent pitch adds $18 million quarterback Chip Kelly would love

The Las Vegas Raiders have many needs this offseason, but none are more glaring than the quarterback position. Gardner Minshew, Aidan O'Connell, and Desmond Ridder each got the chance to start for the team in 2024, but none impressed. Now, Minshew could be a potential cap casualty while Ridder will be a restricted free agent. It's safe to say the Raiders will add at least one quarterback this offseason.
