Who should the Raiders look to draft at QB -- 2025 Edition

[Desert Rat]

Sounds like Jacob Eason. Looks like an NFL QB but just can't play.

The amount of polish he has to his game is complete BS also.

Maybe I just see flaws with these dudes and not the good...

I remember some anonymous source saying this about Davis Webb too. There's always somebody who does this.

It’s liars club time.

Please no

Quinn Ewers’ [visiting] Vegas, that Pete Carroll meeting, I would just say file that one away,” Pelissero said. “I don’t know. The Saints certainly are a possibility there. Write it down and don’t check the odds on it because I can’t give gambling advice.”

Pelissero said it was just his “opinion” that Ewers would be a fit with the Raiders, but his platform is different than a lot of the talking heads and tweeters on social media. It’s a safe bet (or should be, at least) that his thoughts are based on more than a gut feeling.

Watch his game vs Georgia either one

I'm not advocating him as a starter in the near future. Kids got plenty of warts. He's also got physical tools and ability. Develop him a couple years and there might be something there

Hes got a lot of questions - including arm and athleticism. But there's a qb mindset there. Holding off arch was tough in and of itself

You might as well just burn that pick if you're going to select him. Unathletic QB with questionable arm strength. Thats a pass in our division. Milroe has warts but he has a cannon for an arm and can run.

Would fit the franchise theme. Add wrong Texas QB to the list.

He didn't hold him off. They were on some seniority shit because he came back to Texas when they were down bad and left TOSU. Any Texas fan would tell you they wished he transferred last year because they felt like he was the weakest link on their team. Three of the fastest receivers at the combine the last two years have come from Texas. They had RB1 last year in the draft. Plus, not to mention all the times he's looked frail as fuck and gotten hurt. This pick would make me throw up.

2.37, let sit for two years and learn, profit.

I don’t think he’s lasting that long.

I still worry about out Milroe’s baby hands. He had Kenny Picket small hands.

They grew on second measurement. Shit just ain't reliable anymore.

Plus, you'd want the fifth year option for cost control. If they like him, they'd better trade back into the bottom of the first.

fifth year options don't matter much anymore especially for QBs. If the player is good, a new deal is done before then anyway. If he's borderline the cost is usually too much to bother with.

@SportsInfo_SIS did a study that on-target rate on intermediate throws translates to the NFL more than short throws and a lot more than deep throws. Here are throws between 5-20 air yards:

2024: Dart (83%), Shedeur (79%), Ward (74%), Shough (70%), Milroe (70%)

2023: Nix (78%), Jayden (76%), J.J. (70%), Caleb (70%), Penix (66%), Maye (60%)
