10 quarterbacks who could be the Raiders' starter in 2024
By Ryan Heckman
3. Mac Jones via trade
The New England Patriots are an absolute mess. Bill Belichick could be staring at either a top-5 draft pick or being out of a job, or both for that matter. At quarterback, New England is far from set. They might end up moving on from both Mac Jones and backup Bailey Zappe.
Is Jones a great option for the Raiders? Not necessarily. But, the offensive scheme and coordinators in place over his first three years haven't been ideal. Maybe a fresh start and some competition would be good for him.
4. Bo Nix via 2024 NFL Draft
We have come a long way from the Bo Nix at Auburn. At one point, if you were to tell me that Nix was a future first-round pick, I would have laughed. There was no shot of this guy going in the first round after his time with the Tigers. But, Oregon Bo Nix is a different player. The transformation is real, and Nix is now one of the best prospects in next year's class.
Nix has a strong build at 6-foot-2 and an above average arm. Overall, he's become a competitive and feisty quarterback. The kid loves to win, and does whatever it takes to do so. He certainly has some old-school Raider in him.
