NFL Draft 2024 Rumors: Raiders, Vikings ‘Most Strongly’ Linked to Trade Up for QB
One month away from the 2024 NFL draft, it’s becoming clearer which teams want to make a trade up in the first round if they can get their preferred quarterback.
On Thursday’s SportsCenter, ESPN’s Dan Graziano reported the Minnesota Vikings and Las Vegas Raiders are the two teams “most strongly” believed to be preparing to make a “big jump” if the quarterback they like is still on the board.
It’s unclear which quarterback the Raiders and Vikings might prefer, though Graziano seemed to indicate it was LSU’s Jayden Daniels for both teams.
“If Washington takes Jayden Daniels (at No. 2), that might make the Vikings or the Raiders less motivated to go up if Daniels is the guy they like over Drake Maye,” he said. “If Washington takes Maye, and the Vikings and Raiders both want Daniels, all of a sudden that Patriots pick at number three becomes very valuable.
