When it's Game 7 with everything on the line, Maxx Crosby is taking Kobe.
Ever since Mac Jones was playing at Alabama, I’ve had an infatuation with him leading an NFL team as a game-manager, but a damn good one. He has the tools of being an elite processor, great at manipulating defensive backs with his eyes, and beautiful touch on his deep-ball to where he can be an upper-echelon NFL Starting QB.
I’m not sure about you, but I believe Mac Jones will have a long-career as an NFL Starting QB.
Potential Trade
Raiders Receive: QB Mac Jones
Jaguars Receive: 2025 3rd Round Pick
This article is connecting the dots between a QB who people thought was “Washed” and becoming a key piece of a Championship contending team.
In preseason, Jones went 38 for 52 (73.1%), 421 passing yards, 20 rushing yards, 3 TDs – 0 INTs, and a 116.0 passer rating.
Yes, the Raiders have Gardner Minshew as their starting QB, but does that give the big-name-Raiders much hope about their future? Aidan O’Connell was pegged by Raiders fans to be the 2nd coming of Tom Brady, and now he’s not getting a shot to start.
The Jacksonville Jaguars seem content with their franchise QB Trevor Lawrence, so if they are, while it’s important to have a great backup, they could also get value out of him since he’s only on a one-year deal.
The Raiders are in Las Vegas, which means there is no time to waste. Either they trade for a star QB like Dak Prescott, be average this year and trade up in the 2025 NFL Draft for a QB, or trade for Mac Jones who helps them win now while being the potential franchise QB.
