I think they overpaid but hey the raiders are relavent for the first time in a decade, does Carson have any knowledge of the playbook or is this a classic al Davis plug in and try effort? If yall win a playoff game its 2 first rounders, steeeeep

Im loven the move. Carson is the best passing qb weve had since Gannon. He needed a fresh start and he really hasnt been in a offense with this strong of a running game.

I LOVE THIS DEAL!!!!!!! campbell was getting better but carson is a better QB. you never like to give up 2 first round picks but if this works out he can be are starter for awhile and help us maybe get to the super bowl and win.

The Raiders get a 1st round pick, Franchise QB in Palmer. I think the Raiders get screwed having to give up ANYTHING more than their 1st rd pick for 2012... Thats where my complaint would be. Its his free agent year coming up I believe... This is a pure Money Run for the Raiders. Lets hope he takes them to the promise land... I love seeing good football being played in the Bay area!

Good luck Raider fans!!!!

lol @ the Raider haters tryen to down play this. A team thats not close to the Superbowl huh? Our secondary could be better but lets be real. Were averaging 30 points a game damn near and our passing game this year has not been that efficient.

I agree, the Bengals knew we were in need and we wanted Palmer so they jacked us and took advantage.

Bad move by the Raiders. Carson Palmer is done! I seen it his last year playing with the Bengals. To bring him in at his age and decline for a 1st round and conditional is horrible considering the Raiders need multiple draft choices and positions of need.

Next year you guys barely have any draft picks, and this does nothing but hurt your cap even more when you have to pick up free agents and vet minimum free agents. QB got hurt, suck it up and don't panic...this was a panic move like the Colts made when they signed another over the hill guy in Kerry Collins who was also done.

You suck up the loss of Campbell and you live to fight another year, because you weren't going to the Bowl this year anyway but things were looking on the UP. AND EVEN If you are to mortgage the future you spend two picks or whatever on Andrew Luck the best rookie prospect since Payton not on Carlson Palmer.

QB isn't the reason that you are not elite...its that poor defense. If you ask me who's had the best season in their career I'd tell you Palmer over Campbell, but who's been the most consistent and who's better now I would go Campbell. Same thing I said when my Skins got a over the hill McNabb...peep this and tell me what you think.

we're getting picks for gallery, miller, and nnamdi dumb shits so we will have draft picks.

our QB is now better than all the teams talkin shits QB lol

we wont know for real though until he plays, but i mean how many people said seymour wasnt worth a first rounder?

we been building the draft through our later picks in the past 3-4 years. D.Mo 5th rounder. Houston, veldheer and ford all came after the first round, and are all impact players now. shaugnessy, branch and bush were also after the first round.

Tony was loyal to Aaron Brooks and hopped off the Saints nuts before they got Brees & Sean Peyton when Brooks came over years ago. That's not bandwagon.


Plus the Raiders are really really fast on Madden
