[quote=Lamonica_D post_id=1002753]It’s a nice feeling to have an elite QB.

I feel bad for the teams that don’t. Not.

Looking like Rodgers out there just flicking those angles and wrist. Too damn good.

And too damn accurate compared to other QBs. Those ball placements are insane.[/quote]Whatever happened to this joker?

[quote=Lamonica_D post_id=1002914]You guys don't need to worry about Carr's contract. He has already publicly said he has made enough money in this game and from the last contract. This was when he was saying he would retire than play for another team.

Davis has the leverage now after the comments and Carr has mentioned taking less money.

He's going the route of Tom Brady. He will get paid handsomely but he won't be one of the highest paid anymore. Like I mentioned before....Carr's contract right now is a bargain when people were complaining.

Just have to appreciate Carr because before him we never had a player that would commit and play with us for so long (QB). He will be a legend with the organization. Ring of Honor?[/quote]Wow, here’s some comedy gold!

Carolina is supposedly interested.I don’t get it…but whatever.

Make it happen.

“If Carolina does not land a first-round QB, then Las Vegas Raiders QB Derek Carr could be an option, according to a league source.”

Indeed.

[quote=Dark Horse post_id=1122968]“If Carolina does not land a first-round QB, then Las Vegas Raiders QB Derek Carr could be an option, according to a league source.” [/quote]Do these reporters not know that a deal for Carr has to be in place within 3 days after the SB? There is no waiting until after the draft.

[quote=rdr43vr post_id=1122906]What happened to the guy who started this thread. He appears to be MIA since Derek was benched. [/quote]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYbliK9ZrHI

[quote=RI RAIDER post_id=1122948]Anyone who thinks we are getting picks for Carr are setting themselves up for disappointment. There are to many factors that make a trade unlikely including teams knowing that he will be released...[/quote]This is where the "Why in the hell would they do that?" factor comes into play.

If there are multiple teams that want him, one or two may be motivated enough to want to lock him down and therefore be willing to pay what we believe is an idiot king's ransom for the guy. IOW, instead of getting into an uncertain bidding war, they'll take the safe route, pay the contract, and give up a pick or two for him in order to avoid losing him.

Hopefully that's what happens.

[quote=Willmark post_id=1122902]I think most national media no matter how big or small did not. In fact I’d say that the lot of us have watched far more games than even the beat writers.[/quote] Its because they get all their ideas from reading twitter posts.

The only thing that distinguishes these guy’s and members of this forum is a blue check mark on twitter.

[quote=Dark Horse post_id=1122968]“If Carolina does not land a first-round QB, then Las Vegas Raiders QB Derek Carr could be an option, according to a league source.” [/quote]That is absolutely NOT going to happen because that means the Raiders would not waive him after the Super Bowl and would be on the hook for 40Million since the draft is in April.

Carolina would be a good location for him. They have a great Carrtoon on the side of their helmets.

It looks fierce growling and all. Would make Carr look meaner. Some players might mistake him for a tough guy.

The Carrolina Panthers! This would be a great business opportunity. They could sell THOUSANDS of seats!!! Just think of it. They could also have over the public address system after he makes a play or throws this 18th touchdown in 17 games instead of a growl a Carrrrrrrrr. Or when he threw an interception or missed a wide open receiver or did his patent gopher ball the crowd could hissssssss at him like a kitty cat.

Even better yet Eddie Peneiro has #4. So him and Carr could have a cage fight for the number. Bruce Buffer could be the announcer. In this corner weighing in at 5-11 and 190 the kicker, Eddie the "kick ass" Pineirooooooooo! And in this corner (Buffer covering the mic, where did he go?! Drag him back in here!) weighing in at 6-2 and 215 pounds the new Panthers quarterback, Derek the "gopher killer" Carrrrrrrrrr!

[Attyla]

OK fellas, here is where we are at. I have it on good authority that these teams will at least inquire if he is available via trade to their teams. This means will Derek waive his no trade for them:
Carolina, Tennessee, Jets, Green Bay (yes, you heard that correctly) Indianapolis, Houston, Washington (but this is not firmed up as of this moment)

What I am hearing very second hand says he would waive his no trade to any of them.

So there is at the very least passing interest and that we are in contact with his agent. I have heard no compensation details other than the low level scout for the Titans who thinks it is at least one first round pick. FYI the scout I am speaking to is a fairly new friend of mine (yes, f[raiders_icon]ckers, I have friends) so this is a new source for me so I am not sure how connected he is.
