Really?  I wouldnt count on it. They did trade Macl for peanuts 

 

That's because they knew they couldn't afford him----Mark Davis is the poorest owner in the NFL---he isn't a multi Millionaire like most of the other owners. part of the move to Los Vegas is a money grab.

There were a lot of rumors last year that the Raiders line was letting defenders get clean shots on Carr because the QB was outspoken in the locker room in both his support of Trump, and opposition to the kneeling. 

It would make sense if his team mates no longer want to play with him--the situation may be beyond salvageable. If that's the case, it would make sense to trade him, even if he is a "great" quarterback. It may be easier to fix that position, than 10-20 other positions on the team that don't want to play with the guy anymore.

 

The question would be if Carr is able to win the respect of new teammates. If the answer is yes, you have your solution at QB for the foreseeable future.

WTF was the point in trading Khalil Mack if they aren’t going to keep Derek Carr? 

 

I thought the Raiders felt that they could pay both Carr + Mack and still build a solid team. 

 

This is not very good asset management by Gruden if they really do trade Carr...

His cap hit is only around $21-$22M in 2019 and beyond. I believe it would be even less to the team acquiring him because of the money the raiders already paid (like Dareus in Jacksonville). 

 

Plua, the dead cap hit isn’t bad at all if you do eventually move on from him ($7.5M in 2019, $5M in 2020, $2.5M in 2021).

 

If I were running the Bills, I’d be all over this. And I would keep Josh Allen, too.

 

#1) it gives Allen the time he needs to develop. He was always more of a long term project anyway, IMO.

 

#2) it creates competition at the most important position in football. McDermott is all about competition for spots. 

 

If Allen ever does legitimately earn the spot,you can trade Carr and his cap hit will be even more appealing at that time. Or if Carr shows he is the legit franchise QB we’ve been searching for since Kelly, then you can trade Allen. 

 

Fitting his cap cap hit in this season would be a problem, but I’m sure they can find a way to make it work. 

 

I sont see see this happening, but I wish it would...

Hard pass!! He’s the most overrated QB of the last decade. There is no way that I’d pay that for below mediocre play.

 

Obviously many people associated with the NFL,  ( i.e. Players, coaches, etc.) don't agree with you as Carr has played in the last 3 Pro Bowls.

 

 

Here are his NFL Stats thru last season.  How are these overrated?

I don’t care if they agree with me. I have zero interest in Derek Carr. He is the most overrated QB of the last decade. I guess that I need to add IMO.

What? That's all done. They have all their picks next year and then some. They currently have the #3 defense. This is a match made in heaven.

 

So easy, it's hard.

I'm talking about what they feel they have invested to get Allen. Do you honestly think they give up picks this year for another QB with a hefty contract? Only if they feel Carr makes us a SB contender. I don't know if he does, but in the short term it would surely make us better. Would I do it? Yes because I'm not sure what Allen will end up being.

If this is real, then I'll make this simple.  You give them whatever the ***** they want!  You don't hesitate.  I don't know how you work it in capwise, but you make it happen.

 

Carr was on the verge of being a top 5 QB IMO before be BROKE HIS BACK.  He was rushed back and now plays for a team that is completely checked out.  Oh, as for Allen, big deal.  If he pans out, trade the worst of the two in a few years.  You can solve your QB, maybe even your WR problem immediately.

 

You do this and we are 3-3, and can make the playoffs this year.  

 

Do it.

Allen doesn't make a dime and if he pans out, you are in a Brees situation with San Diego.  You can't have enough starting quality QB's on your roster, especially when you are the Bills
