In a new NFL mock draft, the Las Vegas Raiders shockingly land elite WR Malik Nabers at No. 13 and trade up for QB Michael Penix Jr. in Round 2. Nabers is compared to Odell Beckham Jr. for his quickness and skills, making him a top talent. The Raiders' moves are considered bold as most projections had Nabers going in the top 10.

By the Numbers
  • Nabers falls to No. 13 for the Raiders in the mock draft.
  • Raiders trade up to No. 33 for QB Michael Penix Jr.
Yes, But

The mock draft overlooks the Raiders' need for a right tackle in Year 1, focusing instead on offensive skill positions.

State of Play
  • Raiders secure an elite WR and a potential QB upgrade in the latest mock draft.
  • The team could still address other positions, like right tackle, in free agency.
What's Next

If the Raiders follow this mock draft scenario, they may have a dynamic offensive duo to build around for the future.

Bottom Line

The Raiders' surprising draft choices could reshape their offense and set the stage for an exciting future.
