One quarterback who could be available to the Raiders in later rounds is Tulane\u2019s Michael Pratt. While Pratt was successful in college and was 2023\u2019s AAC Offensive Player of the Year, his limited upside makes him a questionable fit in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPratt has the tools to be a valuable NFL backup and spot starter, and he\u2019ll make sense for plenty of franchises,\u201d Knox wrote in an\u00a0April 8 column. \u201cHowever, he isn\u2019t likely to unseat O\u2019Connell on the depth chart or become Las Vegas\u2019 quarterback of the future. The Raiders can and should take a swing at the QB position later this month, but they don\u2019t need to go chasing their QB3 on draft weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pratt does what both\u00a0Aidan O\u2019Connell\u00a0and\u00a0Gardner Minshew\u00a0do well, which is protect the football and throw it accurately from the pocket. If the Raiders are going to take a swing on a quarterback, it would be wiser to add one with more athletic upside.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis toughness, touch accuracy and moderate athletic ability should help him keep the ship afloat in a pinch,\u201d\u00a0Derrik Klassen\u00a0of the B\/R Scouting Department wrote about Pratt. \u201cHowever, Pratt\u2019s uneven decision-making and lack of high-end traits limit his upside.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"311f2eaa9d9010d135ea9934afcd18dd\">\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Just finished Michael Pratt\u2019s performance in the 2022 AAC Championship<\/p>\n<p>His command, quick decision-making, willingness to throw over the middle, aggressiveness to attack safeties, and solid ball-carrying stood out<\/p>\n<p>Also flashed anticipation, connected on a few rollouts, and\u2026<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Just finished Michael Pratt&#39;s performance in the 2022 AAC Championship<\/p>\n<p>His command, quick decision-making, willingness to throw over the middle, aggressiveness to attack safeties, and solid ball-carrying stood out<\/p>\n<p>Also flashed anticipation, connected on a few rollouts, and\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fOhRkjQ0lo\">pic.twitter.com\/fOhRkjQ0lo<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Taylor Kyles (@tkyles39) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tkyles39\/status\/1777101155081798117?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 7, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Las Vegas Raiders Expected to Add Michael Penix Jr.<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s looking more and more likely that if the Raiders decide to draft a quarterback in the first two rounds, it\u2019s going to be\u00a0Washington\u2019s Michael Penix Jr.\u00a0He may be available to the team in the second round but Pro Football Focus\u2019 Max Chadwick is projecting them to take Penix with the No. 13 pick.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 1983 NFL Draft set the record for the most first-round quarterbacks, with six hearing their names called,\u201d Chadwick wrote in an\u00a0April 8 mock draft. \u201cThis class not only has a strong chance of tying that record, but all six could go in the top 15.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPenix has NFL-level arm talent and was one of the best signal-callers in college football in each of the past two seasons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Penix is a pocket passer but his athletic traits are more exciting than Michael Pratt\u2019s. He\u2019s got a big arm and can also run fast for a quarterback of his size. He\u2019s got the kind of upside that would be worth taking a risk on.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Should Las Vegas Raiders Hold off on Adding QB?<\/h2>\n<p>Michael Penix Jr. could be a great NFL quarterback but he\u2019s also suffered two separate torn ACL injuries in his career and will be 24 in May. He\u2019s not a sure thing and does have some red flags, which is why he\u2019s not considered a top-10 pick.<\/p>\n<p>There are many teams in the NFL that need a quarterback right now and the Raiders not picking until No. 13 puts them in a tough position. They may need to hold off on trying to find their franchise quarterback until next year when there shouldn\u2019t be as many teams at the top of the draft expected to draft a quarterback.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2024 NFL Draft is closing in and the\u00a0Las Vegas Raiders\u2018 plan at quarterback remains unclear.
