The Raiders & Bengals are close to a trade that would send Carson Palmer to OAK for a first-rounder in 2012 and a conditional pick in future

[BigHouseUSA]

First round pick? LMAO

[Macken]

Coach Marvin Lewis strongly indicated on NFL Network Monday that Carson Palmer will remain in the reserve/retired list and not be traded before Tuesday's deadline.
"I can’t speak for Raiders but our organization is very firm in statement that Carson (Palmer) is retired," said Lewis. "We have moved on and that’s enough to be said because we don’t need to make anymore headlines." In other words, the Bengals have not only moved on from Palmer as a player for their team, but as a player for anyone else's team, as well. It appears the 31-year-old quarterback will continue to rot, while the Raiders will be forced to pursue alternatives on the trade and free agent markets.

Yesterdays news.

Jay Glazer is da man.

Al Davis lives!

[SHOGUN]

:wut:

[Woy]

Official now.

1st in 2012, conditional 1st in 2013.

I'm convinced Al Davis made this trade from his coffin.

@ potentially getting 2 first round picks for a player who was never going to step foot on the field for Cincy again.

[Tailback U]

Fuck it. Not going to make us any worse this season.

Trust me when I say there is no way Carson Palmer won't make this team better (this season). Kyle Boller is fucking awful. So awful that I don't even think he should be in the NFL anymore, I really don't know why. At least Palmer can complete a fucking out route.

This team is in playoff contention for the first time in 10 years. Might as well get after it. Obviously a dumb move but whatever because Boller is Jamarcus Russell bad.

[Goober]

Holy shit I didn't think it was possible to downgrade at GM from Al Davis, but apparently it is.

Yeah because the guys in Denver have been doing so much better lately.

- Draft Franchise QB. Trade him.
- Draft elite WR. Trade him.
- Fire HOF coach.
- Hire rookie Coach.
- Fire rookie coach.
- Draft Tim Tebow with your 1st round pick.
- Draft Knowshon Moreno with your 1st round pick.
- Lose to the Raiders twice a year.

And you're giving up two first round picks for Carson Palmer, that's almost as much as what the Bears gave up for Jay Cutler.

The Bears traded for Cutler when he was 25 and coming off a break out season.
The Raiders are trading for Palmer when he is 31 and coming off a few shit seasons.

The compensation between the two shouldn't even be close.
