The Las Vegas Raiders still don't have their long-term answer under center, but Geno Smith is a substantial upgrade over anyone the team has had since Derek Carr left. Frankly, he's an upgrade over most of Carr's years in the Silver and Black, if we're being honest.

The easy-to-tab beneficiaries of Smith's presence and an upgraded offensive coordinator in Chip Kelly, are Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers. Meyers produced despite lackluster quarterback play, so Smith being merely capable is a good thing for him.
