Since they weren\u2019t able to find a potential franchise quarterback, the Raiders decided to load up on offense by using their first three draft picks on a tight end and two offensive linemen.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas Cowboys\u00a0quarterback\u00a0Dak Prescott\u00a0is entering a contract year and there\u2019s a chance he won\u2019t sign an extension. If he hits free agency, there will be no shortage of teams vying for his services. Pro Football Focus and The 33rd Team\u2019s Marcus Mosher threw out the idea that the Raiders would be an appealing landing spot for Prescott if he leaves the Cowboys in a\u00a0May 7 X post.<\/p>\n<div id=\"6f4ca9963a17408a338d00fcdaa692d4\">\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Davante Adams<br \/>\nBrock Bowers<br \/>\nJakobi Meyers<br \/>\nMichael Mayer<br \/>\nTre Tucker<br \/>\nMichael Gallup<br \/>\nGood + young OL<\/p>\n<p>Seems like a pretty good destination for Dak Prescott in 2025\u2026 IF he wants to leave Dallas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<p>Prescott is coming off his best season in the NFL as he finished second in MVP voting. However, the Cowboys could have major salary cap issues and may decide it\u2019s better to start over at quarterback than to give Prescott a record-setting contract. If that happens, the Raiders would have to be one of the teams he\u2019d consider.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>PFF Details How Las Vegas Raiders Are Set Up for QB<\/h2>\n<p>The Raiders have been in quarterback limbo since\u00a0Derek Carr\u00a0was benched during the 2022 season. Finding a franchise quarterback is never easy and it\u2019s proving especially difficult for Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<p>While they try to remain patient regarding the future at quarterback, Dalton Wasserman of Pro Football Focus detailed why the Raiders have set up their next signal-caller well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEither Gardner Minshew or Aidan O\u2019Connell is going to love throwing to former Georgia Bulldog Brock Bowers,\u201d Wasserman wrote in a\u00a0May 6 column. \u201cThe two-time John Mackey Award winner is one of the greatest college tight ends of all time. His ability after the catch is reminiscent of George Kittle. He could immediately pair with Michael Mayer to form one of the NFL\u2019s premier tight end duos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLas Vegas also needed help on the offensive line. Second-round pick Jackson Powers-Johnson should start immediately at right guard. He was college football\u2019s best center last season, but he also brings ample guard experience and is an excellent pass protector no matter where he plays. The Raiders will find a franchise quarterback sometime in the future, but they did an excellent job adding talent elsewhere early in this year\u2019s draft.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Though star wide receiver\u00a0Davnate Adams\u00a0is aging, the Raiders offense is filled with young and emerging talent.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>How Much Money Is Dak Prescott Going to Command?<\/h2>\n<p>The biggest issue with a potential Prescott acquisition is how much money he\u2019s going to cost.\u00a0Spotrac\u00a0projects the quarterback\u2019s market value to be at four years and $203.5 million. That might even be on the low end as Prescott could want to be the first quarterback to make $60 million a year.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Prescott has a career playoff record of 2-5. His performance in the postseason has always been the biggest knock against him. If he lays another egg in the playoffs this year, it\u2019s hard to imagine any team would want to pay him $60 million a year.<\/p>\n<p>The Raiders have been to the playoffs just twice since 2002 so they likely would be happy just to be in the postseason but it would only make sense to sign Prescott if the price was a bit more reasonable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getty\u00a0Antonio Pierce with Davante Adams.
