The Las Vegas Raiders are looking to resolve their quarterback woes following a turbulent two-season stretch characterized by uncertainty at the position. With the sixth overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, they may have the chance to select a promising prospect or opt for a competent veteran to bolster their roster. Notably, the team’s search for a new head coach has also intensified, with Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson emerging as a prime candidate. Johnson is considering various head coaching offers, and the Raiders' vacancy stands out due to potential backing from new part-owner Tom Brady.

Despite the challenges surrounding the quarterback situation, analysts view the Raiders' coaching opportunity as one of the more appealing prospects available this offseason. Vinnie Iyer of the Sporting News ranks it as the third-best, emphasizing the need for a robust offensive system to support the future franchise quarterback. Johnson, known for his offensive acumen, will undoubtedly weigh the prospects of working with a strong quarterback against other enticing offers. The Raiders remain hopeful about securing Johnson's commitment soon, which would mark a pivotal moment in their transitional phase.
