Palmer to the Raiders

"Oakland and Cincinnati are on the verge of completing one of the NFL's biggest trade-deadline deals in decades, with the Raiders acquiring holdout quarterback Carson Palmer from the Bengals in exchange for two first-round picks, according to sources familiar with the deal."

 

2012 First Round pick is for sure. Bengals get a first rounder in 2013 if they win a playoff game this year and if they don't, the Bengals get a 2013 2nd rounder.

thoughts?

 

Personally I think the Raiders are over paying for a 31 (turning 32) year old QB who threw 20 int's last season and has missed an entire offseason, an entire training camp and 6 weeks of the season. Considering the Bengals are 4-2 with Andy Dalton at QB, I think this deal is making them look real good right now.

They have a point, the current quarterback of the Raiders is a scrub. They needed something to look forward to.

But a first round pick is a first round pick. Depending on how the draft class looks, this could either be a good trade or it could be a bad one.

Jason Campbell was playing well. He definitely wasn't a pro bowl QB, but he knew the offense and was doing a good job running it. I don't know if he's a scrub lol

If he isn't Jay Cutler, he is a scrub!

But nah, I would rather rely on Carson Palmer. I mean look at Roy Williams and Marion Barber, no one expected them to do shit for the Bears and they are doing pretty darn good.

but seeing the raiders i think they value u QB more then any other position.

 

Every team would value a good QB. Carson Palmer was a good QB. Stats suggest he's in decline. Only QB's I'd trade a 1st rounder and another 1st rounder (conditional) for would be Brady, Brees, Manning, Stafford, Bradford, Rodgers.

We'll see how Palmer does in the next few games, but I doubt the Raiders will be do better than they are right now but I think if the Raiders are going to do worse with him, it's not going to be losing all their games with him as the starter.

No I mean the 11 pro bowls, 5 all-pro's, 4 mvp's, and Superbowl Ring. Not to mention probably the most wins by a hybrid Coach/QB wins at the same time.

 

... I was hoping he was just gonna get injured. Lions cannot make the playoffs. My faith in humanity will be torn to shreds.
