Why y’all think Raiders would trade Carr lol, then they don’t have a qb?

Ive broken this about 3x now between last nights thread and today's... This will probably be the last time. 

Raiders have been quietly shopping Derek Carr for 3 weeks now. The Colts, Brown and Seahawks are said to be interested. The belife is that McDaniels wants to trade Carr because he is an easy value right now, for the following reasons:

1. Last year of his deal
2. He is going to be expensive this offseason due to his is current contract and elevated market
3. McDaniels wants to hand pick his QB

You can simply type in "Derek Carr Trade McDaniels" on google you will see articles sharing the same thing, and if you venture to the raiders reddit this has been an active topic.

guy's. the smart move if we miss out on DW is to roll with Sam for 2022 use our resources on solidifying the OL so that when we do see an available QB we have a solid system in place for that QB to be successful in. Not a popular option, but it's the right way to build the team.

P.S. first step has got be be fire Rhule and get a competent HC in place to orchestrate the plan.

Is there an actual time that dw has to make a choice

 This poo is getting old

nope. there's no "deadline"

lot of twitter noise though

This could drag on into the summer for all we know. I think everyone involved wants it to be done ASAP though.

Both are better than Darnold who has never even had a winning season. I don't love those choices but I'd take Baker on a rookie contract for a 1 season tryout over Darnold again.

Baker went through 4 different OCs in 4 years... he was never setup for success by that franchise. Browns are a poorly run franchise. Baker with a fair shake might actually be an optimal QB in this league. He took that team to the playoffs for the first time in over a decade, and helped them to their first playoff win in oer 25 years...

Well he'll be going on 5 and 6 here, so nothing changes for him.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
