Las Vegas Raiders: Ranking the top-8 options at quarterback in 2023
No. 5: Bryce Young
Young is the consensus best overall QB in the 2023 Draft class coming out of Alabama. It would cost a lot for the Raiders to end up with Bryce Young. If the Raiders were willing to trade multiple first-round picks, they could move up six spots to the number one overall pick and select him.
The Chicago Bears hold that pick currently and are reportedly going to do everything they can to trade back. The Bears need defensive help badly, and with highly talented prospects coming out this year on the defensive side of the ball and teams willing to trade up for quarterbacks, the Bears can afford to trade back and let the defensive players fall to them.
Teams like the Texans, Colts, Lions, and Seahawks are all expected to do their homework on the top QBs, as well as the Raiders. The Raiders would have to hop all of these teams to nab Young. The Bears would likely want the two or three first-round picks and more to move down to seven.
