The Las Vegas Raiders will add their QB of the future and present at No. 1 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft.

First-year coach Klint Kubiak's tenure will be directly tied to Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, who was selected with the first pick of the draft.

The Raiders also have needs along the offensive line and all across the defense. Vegas could also consider a receiver with an early-round selection.
