How Georgia Star Fits Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders are having a difficult season, causing several members of Raider Nation to retire for the year.

The Raiders are 2-6 and have lost four games in a row with seemingly no end in sight. Coach Antonio Pierce’s first year as full-time head coach did not go as the team had planned.

While Pierce and the players on the team won’t give up on the season, many Raiders fans are ready to think about what’s next for the Silver and Black.

The next nine games will feel long for Raiders fans as the upcoming offseason looks set to be exciting. At the top of the Raiders’ offseason list is their next franchise quarterback.

That will likely come in the 2025 NFL Draft, be it in the first or seventh round. The Raiders need to acquire young talent.

One quarterback they might consider is Georgia’s Carson Beck. From the moment he stepped foot on campus in Athens, Beck was a winner.

In three seasons as a starter, Beck is 26-2. He completed 69 percent of his passes for 6,420 yards, 45 touchdowns and 16 interceptions.

Beck is one of the tallest quarterbacks in this draft class at 6’3″ and 220 pounds. He’s a tall, skinny quarterback who moves well in the pocket.

Beck has one of the best arm talents in his class. He is a pure thrower who can drive and layer throws. He has an elite IQ and can run offense at a high level.

Although Beck isn’t the most mobile quarterback, he is capable of making plays with his legs. The Raiders wouldn’t use many run-pass options with him, but Beck can scramble and get first downs.

Beck would certainly like to throw another shot to his old college teammate, tight end Brock Bowers. Beck and Bowers have formed one of the best quarterback-receiver duos in college football in recent seasons.

Raiders fans would enjoy seeing Beck throw to Bowers again, this time in a silver and black uniform. It worked at a high level in college and it could work again in the pros.

If the Raiders wait until the second or third round to sign a quarterback, Beck could be a viable option.
