Dylan Raiola transfers to Oregon as Dante Moore mulls NFL draft decision

Oregon has its Dante Moore insurance policy.

Former Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola announced Monday he has committed to Oregon in the transfer portal, giving the Ducks their potential new starter should Moore enter the 2026 NFL Draft, or Moore’s successor in 2027.

It’s a big get for Dan Lanning, whose No. 5 Ducks just got crushed by No. 1 Indiana in the CFP semifinals on Friday, 56-22.

Moore has been projected as a top-two pick and a potential QB of the future for the Jets, who have the No. 2 pick in this year’s draft — assuming the Raiders take the Hoosiers’ Fernando Mendoza at No. 1.

But Moore said after the loss that he did not know what his decision would be regarding whether he’ll enter the draft.

The 20-year-old went 24-for-39 with 285 yards, two touchdowns an interception and two lost fumbles against Indiana — including a pick-six on the first offensive play of the game.

He finished the season with 3,565 yards, 30 touchdowns, 10 interceptions and a 71.8 completion percentage in 15 games.

Raiola, 20, played in nine games for the Cornhuskers during his sophomore campaign before suffering a season-ending broken fibula.

He finished 2025 with 2,000 yards, 18 touchdowns, six interceptions and a 72.4 completion percentage.

The move gives Raiola a chance to play for a better program, which could improve his stock in either the 2027 or ’28 draft; Nebraska went 7-6 each of Raiola’s seasons under Matt Rhule.
