Bleacher Reports: The starting quarterback for the Cleveland franchise, has officially been traded to the Las Vegas Raiders. According to reports, Wentz signed a four-year, $158 million contract after deciding to play elsewhere following….

The only problem is that Daniels is likely going to be a top-three draft pick and the Raiders don’t make their selection until No. 13. However, there could be things happening behind the scenes. Former LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers players with Daniels and is also expected to be a top-10 pick. The two were recently on Instagram Live together when Nabers decided to drop some insight into where the quarterback might end up.

“Y’all are never going to believe it. [Jayden Daniels] might partner with his old homie,” Nabers said on an April 8 Instagram Live.

These comments caught the attention of Raiders fans as there are a couple of people involved with the team who could be considered an “old homie.” Pierce would be the most obvious person Nabers is talking about but it could also be cornerback Jack Jones, who played with Daniels at Arizona State.

Now, this is pure speculation as Daniels likely has many old friends around the NFL right now considering he spent five years in college. Regardless, there’s been a lot of filtration between Daniels and the Raiders. It’s a situation to watch.

How Las Vegas Raiders Can Get Jayden Daniels
If the Washington Commanders at No. 2 plan to draft Jayden Daniels, there’s no avenue for the Raiders to get him unless the quarterback refuses to play for them, which is unlikely. If Daniels gets past No. 2, then things get interesting.

The New England Patriots at No. 3 need a quarterback but also have many other needs. If they were to trade down with the Raiders, they’d get at least a few draft picks in return. If they’re not ready to start their quarterback clock right now, they could be a trade partner for Las Vegas.
