Dark horse QB option: Derek Carr?

[unicar15]

What if the Raiders offered #17 and Carr for #8?

Pick up a quarterback and a pick. 
 

I wouldn’t be mad about coming out of the first round with Carr and Surtain or a starting OT.

Holy poo. I never considered the Saints or a multi-team deal. If there is a team that has tons of players available to trade and desperately needs to jettison cap, it's them. 

I would melt down if we got scooped by the Saints in a Watson deal.

It does if Gruden wants a QB to groom and CAR doesn’t like the options

Carr checks a lot of the boxes that Rhule/Fitterer have said they look for in a QB. 

Here’s a good article with a video included for those that can’t read...

It wouldn’t be the sexy acquisition most were hoping for that’s for sure

offer a 2nd then draft a LT at 8 or trade down

I like Derek Carr as a QB, a lot. Remember his brother played here with those super white mickey mouse gloves?

The reason we'd be making that deal is concern of being on the outside looking in on the QB run. If that's the case, the Raiders would probably be looking to climb higher than #8. 

[DeAngelo Beason]

Nah.  He's got talent but I wouldn't trade anything significant for him.

Just the opposite.  He takes his team downfield and scores.  Five times last year.  He had a sixth time pissed away after he put his team ahead of the Chiefs with 1:45 to go and the defense couldn't get a stop.

So what you're saying is that instead of 0-8 on drives to win a game, he might do a better?  I honestly wouldn't mind building around someone who can win games.

Seeing word now that the Eagles are mostly but not completely opposed to trading Carson Wentz.

Don't see him here, but he could be one of those "dominoes".

Can't help wondering about Frank Reich and the Colts.

Above average on 8 of 12 boxes and way above on 5 of 12. Seems like a major upgrade to me

Carr’s biggest issue is fumbling which might take him off the board of possibilities
