Las Vegas' second-year player could be in for a major season. There is a lot of excitement building around the new-look offense for the Las Vegas Raiders. The addition of Geno Smith, combined with Ashton Jeanty being drafted, has given this unit a lot of juice going into the 2025 season. The duo of Jeanty and Brock Bowers will instantly be one of the league’s best, and the hope is that the additions at wide receiver can help round out the offense.

The heir to Geno Smith's throne in Las Vegas is hiding in plain sight. No team in the NFL improved its quarterback situation more than the Las Vegas Raiders this offseason. The addition of Geno Smith gives the Raiders a bonafide franchise quarterback who can run the offense at an elite level, and his familiarity with Pete Carroll makes the fit even better. But even the biggest Geno Smith fans will admit that he isn’t a long-term solution as the veteran quarterback will turn 35 in October.

The Las Vegas Raiders should by no means be considered done in terms of adding talent before the 2025 season starts, with safety Justin Simmons at the top of this hypothetical list despite his very public overtures for the Philadelphia Eagles. The Raiders would be wise to target their former division rival, especially considering they have one of his more respected coaches on the staff. This X-factor could make them a prime landing spot.

Much has been made about Geno Smith’s volume of interceptions in 2024, but that shouldn’t be a problem for the veteran quarterback with the Las Vegas Raiders. The Las Vegas Raiders had what they hope was a transformative offseason, highlighted by the hiring of Pete Carroll, trading for Geno Smith, and drafting Ashton Jeanty. Along with a host of other promising moves, Vegas is hoping it can quickly go from one of the league’s worst teams, to a legit contender.
