Las Vegas Raiders: 3 trade destinations for Marcus Mariota

Taking over for Alex Smith with the Washington Football Team

Although the Washington Football Team barely won the worst division in NFL history, they still showed promise and a bright future that should see plenty of playoff appearances in the coming years. Washington has a talented young defense headlined by Chase Young, and unlike the other teams mentioned, have a legit elite receiver in Terry McLaurin.

Washington did just extend Taylor Heinicke, though I would be surprised if they are all in on him. There have been rumors that Washington has been reaching out to teams looking to trade for a quarterback, but their only real option outside of Mariota is Deshaun Watson, a player that is not a guarantee to get traded.

The odds of Washington bringing in Wentz is low considering they are in the same division.

Mariota would come into a good situation with a solid running back group, a great target in Terry McClaurin, and a great defense to take some weight off his shoulders. If Marcus Mariota is going to revive his career anywhere, Washington could be the best place to do it.
