Las Vegas Raiders: 2023 NFL Scouting Combine dates and events

The Las Vegas Raiders have a lot of work to do regarding the 2023 NFL Draft as the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine kicks off this week from Indianapolis.

It is officially draft season, as the Las Vegas Raiders staff heads to Indianapolis for one of the premier draft events of the season. The 2023 NFL Scouting Combine kicks off this week from Indianapolis, and for a team with a ton of draft capital, there is no week more important than this one.

Last year, Las Vegas did not hold a pick until Day 3, so they missed out on some of the elite talent that draft class had to offer. Things are a lot different this year, as they have a host of top-100 picks and are looking to bolster this roster on both sides of the ball.

So when does the party get started in Indy? Jordan Reid, who does an outstanding job for ESPN as a Draft Analyst, tweeted out the schedule of events on Monday:

As you can see, the prospects have already descended on Indianapolis hoping to take another step toward making their NFL dreams come true. This will be another great opportunity for general manager David Ziegler and his staff to evaluate some of the best talent the draft has to offer, sitting in rooms with players, and watching them work out on the field.

Unlike last draft season, where the Raiders traded away their first and second-round pick to the Green Bay Packers for Davante Adams, the team will be front and center on Day 1 of the 2023 NFL Draft. Holding the No. 7 overall pick, the Silver and Black could go several different ways with the selection, including possibly bringing in their next franchise quarterback, or trading up or down.
