Raiders Focus on Kubiak and Webb as They Groom Mendoza for No. 1 Pick

Las Vegas has narrowed its head-coach search to Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb, pairing an offensive-minded leader with the team's plan to develop Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, the expected No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Kubiak is the favorite after his work with Seattle’s high-powered offense and a strong NFC title performance; Webb, 31, is viewed as a long-term head-coach candidate but lacks coordinator experience. The Raiders intend to grow a young coach and Mendoza together while keeping a Plan B ready, mindful of timing around the Super Bowl and other opportunities for Webb.

Colbert’s receivers were among the league’s leading culprits in drops, while Lynch had recently been promoted to CBs coach.
