NFL News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Raiders' Mendoza Draft Prep: Full Immersion in Playbook. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
It's March 28th, welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI and ready for kickoff. The Las Vegas Raiders are gearing up for a big move, with just 26 days until things get official. It looks like they're locked in on Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza as their first overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Earlier this week on the Pat McAfee Show, draft expert Daniel Jeremiah drops a mental. He said Mendoza is already diving deep into the Raiders offense, guided by former NFL quarterback and coach Brian Grease. This isn't just basic drills, it's full immersion in their playbook, verbiage and core plays. Jeremiah compared it to how Joe Burrow prepped ahead of his draft, getting a head start on team schemes. Grease and Raiders coach Clint Kubiak teamed up last year with the 49ers, so their solid familiarity there. Grease stepped away from coaching after the 2024 season, making this a smart fit. Betting odds have Mendoza as a massive favorite at minus 10,000 to go number 1 overall.
Signalling the Raiders are all in and the buzz is. Building fast.
