I think the Raiders can win the West, they couldn't with Boller...but have a real shot at it with Palmer.

I didn't think Campbell's injury would help the Bengals so much.

The conditional pick looks to be second round at worst, according to Jay Glazer, who is a dumbass.

@mortreport says its a 2nd rounder that turns into a first if the Raiders win a playoff game

I don't know, we all know Norv Turner will shit the bed at some point this year. The other 2 teams are just awful.

Who actually had faith in him? I'd say he's 2-3 years out from doing anything significant in the NFL.

I just don't see it. Carson hasn't done shit this offseason, and he didn't look good with the Bengals his last 2 seasons.

I'm not saying he gets them there singlehandedly. As long as he plays average and the Chargers have a Norv letdown, they basically make it by default.

That's a lot of ifs. He didn't even play average last season. Norv chokes in the playoffs not the regular season. He already avoided his trademark early season slow start.

The raiders do know it is called a NEGOTIATION correct? They dont have to accept the first offer that the bengals put forth.

The Bengals outsmarting the Raiders is like saying "I'm the skinniest kid at fat camp"

Then he's in the small minority. I think he could be a QB in the NFL if with the right coaches/team. Oakland isn't it.

The Jay Cutler to the Bears trade was almost as bad as this one (two 1st rounders, a 3rd rounder, and Kyle Orton). Cutler and Palmer are basically the same player statistically (plus they're two guys who just totally lack that intangible "it" factor).

The only difference is Cutler was younger and hadn't been sitting out like a bitch for half of the season when he was brought in.

Haha Pick6 doesn't count. He thought Troy Smith should have been starting in the NFL.

Auto yeah 2-3 years he should be a pretty decent #2 or 3 WR!

Only trade I can think of that is worse than this is the Herschel Walker trade. I don't think anything will ever top that.

Cutler is way better than palmer right now. He still has a strong arm and is fairly accurate. His problem is he has a line that absolutely sucks and other then forte not many weapons.

Raiders definitely telling Terrelle he better start learning how to run the pass routes with this trade. I doubt they ever intended for him to be a QB at anytime.

How do you what Palmer did in the offseason? Did you live in his basement?
