Report: Raiders show big interest in one of the best quarterbacks of the 2023 NFL Draft
The 2023 NFL Draft is really close and all the teams are searching for the best prospects to add. The Las Vegas Raiders hold the No. 7 pick, which could be useful for adding a quarterback.
After losing Derek Carr, the Raiders decided to go to the free agency market and sign Jimmy Garoppolo. The two-time Super Bowl champion is looking forward to succeed with the AFC West team, but it seems like his arrival is just a momentary one-year solution.
For this reason, the Raiders have met with Anthony Richardson, one of the best quarterbacks of the 2023 NFL Draft class. The Florida player had dinner with the AFC West squad on Wednesday.
Unfortunately, the No. 7 pick may not be enough to land the quarterback, who had an amazing NFL Scouting Combine and surprised everybody. The team might need to go higher in the Draft in order to select who could be their franchise quarterback for a long time.
