Raiders 3-round NFL Mock Draft: Moving up Day 1, but what QB lands in Vegas?

We close this 3-round Raiders mock draft with Cam Hart, a talented cornerback from the University of Notre Dame. Hart burst onto the scene in South Bend thanks to his incredible coverage ability, as well as his nose for the football when it comes to breaking up passes.

The Raiders have a glaring hole at the cornerback spot, and if they cannot move up on Day 1, they are likely to take a first-round talent like Terrion Arnold and Nate Wiggins with the selection. Hart is a guy who can come into the league and earn a starting role right away, and to get him in the third round would prove to be a steal if he can reach his full potential.

Of course, the Raiders will still have to address the offensive tackle spot on Day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft, but this haul fills plenty of needs early on this April. If Maye can become an elite quarterback in the NFL, then this trade would be well worth it, but as is always the case, some quarterbacks will prove to be legitimate Day 1 talents, while others will fail.

Telesco's future as Raiders GM would hinge on Maye becoming elite.
