Came across this on Twitter, a response from an AP Las Vegas sports reporter to our favorite guy who still owes us all PREMIUM t-shirts. Interesting since there’s a PR/spin war being fought over who told who to go home.

I think the chances of trading Carr are pretty low, given his current contract. I assume that if the Raiders trade him before the guarantees kick in, those guarantees transfer to his new team. What team is going to guarantee him $40 million? It's going to be very similar to the Garoppolo situation for the 49ers last year, but with a much narrower window to operate in.
I'm sure that there are teams that would be interested in him as a free agent, but I doubt there are any that would be willing to pay anything close to the terms of his current contract. It's not like we're the only ones that have any insight into his weaknesses.
I'm also not sure Carr would be willing to take much of a pay cut. I would be very surprised if he took a small, one year deal like Garoppolo did this year. I just don't think he is as driven as many of the other QBs out there. That's a big part of his issues, IMO.

The only chance we have to lock in a trade is if at least 2 teams are dead-set on acquiring him, and neither wants to get all swingin-dick to aquire him as a FA.
Despite how little we think of him, it just takes 2. Wash traded for Wentz AFTER his abysmal year at Indy.
It just takes 2 incredibly wonderfully stupid organizations. Let’s wish this shit into existence.

https://twitter.com/markanderson65/stat ... nrwziS-Bjw[/quote]My guess is that the Raiders would love for Carr to be a team first guy and support Stidham, but gave him the option of running home and getting cuddled by Darren and he chose comfort over his teammates. And remember, supporting Stidham means also putting his buddies Adams, Renfrow and Waller a better opportunity to succeed so it's not just about helping the guy who's replacing him.

https://external-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/em ... sid=a349d5[/quote]Waller in that list sounds wild to me. Hell, even Jacobs does but that at least makes some sense.
It will be wild if all three are gone by the end of the season, is merchandising that far ahead of the game?

I doubt merchandising got information that early, could just be getting rid of excess stuff of players that have been here when they didn't sell enough this year. Probably expected us to be better which would equal more sales.

Lol @ Carr unfollowing the Raiders on social media…petty AF. Guy couldn’t wait till he was no longer employed by the team. He probably thinks he was done dirty and takes no accountability for his poor play. Tells you all you need to know about him really.

https://external-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/em ... sid=a349d5[/quote]The three with the most left in inventory is my guess. Prob had as many, or more, Crosby's to start but they probably sold more.

Carr's jersey is a no brainer.
Jacob's probably because he is a free agent that might be leaving.
Waller's = who knows.
