The Raiders have had a successful off season, including a deal with the Texans and a deal to move up to No. 38 in the 2026 draft. Mendoza was a standout player for Indiana in 2025, throwing 27 touchdowns and no interceptions, and completing 73% of his passes. Crawford improved from Year 1 to Year 2 with Auburn, earning 36 pressures and five sacks last season. The Raiders drafted former Arizona safety Treydan Stukes in the second round, adding to their defensive needs at safety. The team also acquired Johnson from the New Orleans Saints in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round pick and DE Tyree Wilson. Washington, one of the top running back prospects in this year's class, has the potential to be the perfect wingman for running back Ashton Jeanty.
