If it wasn't obvious before, it is after fellow top quarterback prospect Dante Moore decided to stay in school. Barring something completely unforeseen, the Las Vegas Raiders will be taking Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza with the first overall pick in April's draft.
The bigger question is how the rest of the roster will be shaped around the rookie signal caller. Refurbishing a roster Pete Carroll played a key role in arguably making worse than it was when he took over will take some work. But it's safe to assume general manager John Spytek and whoever the new head coach is will be better aligned than Spytek and Carroll were.
