Chop .................Any thought on the Sun Belt match up tonight ?
TIA .
This will go down as one of the worst trades in NFL history. There are better QB's available on the waiver wire. With Palmer's contract, I wouldn't have taken him for 'free'. The guy hasn't taken a snap in nearly a year, and he was steaming dogshit then. All you have to do is look at how the Bengals have done without him for evidence.
the Raiders are a solid team with a lot of good young players and no QB.
It is pretty hard to get a good QB if your in that spot since your draft pick isn't gonna be good enough to get the really highly touted guy and nobody is gonna trade a QB.
What were they supposed to do just let all of their young talent rookie deals expire and leave? The AFC is weaker than its been in 10 years so they're gonna take a shot. Sure they gaveup a lot but its not a bad move when you consider how wide open the AFC is and that Oak is a team that is pretty solid besides QB.
