Show Notes
The Las Vegas Raiders, with the number one pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, are expected to select quarterback Fernando Mendoza. New head coach Klint Kubiak aims to surround Mendoza with playmakers, particularly at wide receiver. Free agent Rashid Shaheed, a 27-year-old with strong hands and explosive returns, is a potential target. Kubiak, who coached Shaheed in New Orleans and Seattle, sees him as a perfect fit. Mendoza, a Heisman winner and national champion, struggles with holding the ball too long and missing pressure from the blind side. Kubiaks challenge is to fix this flaw and build a contender with weapons like Shaheed.
