Palmer was pretty much exposed for what he is down the stretch last season. Almost ten months removed from the field due to his trade me or I quit mentality, Oakland will regret this move like they have most of them in the last decade. Many claim he was never the same after the ACL. I think he was never what the media hyped him to be before it. He's not accountable or mentally tough. He's another big arm who never worked on the finer points of his own game or the game. He can put up some gaudy empty yards, but he can't make an easy or smart play when a game or his teams season is on the line.
Apparently it's a 2012 #1 and a 2013 conditional pick that will be a #2 but could become another #1. No word on what the condition is... He's in Oakland having his physical. Apparently the Raiders were also considering Vince Young...
Even if Palmer was still good, that is way too much for a QB who is 32 not named TFB.
This could put the Raiders franchise back a decade if it doesn't work. They would virtually have no 2012 draft. I take back anything back I've ever said about Al Davis, because he must have been the sane one in that organisation
So the raiders are almost done w. their 2012 draft picks.
1st-Carson.
2nd-Pats
3rd-Comp draft for the Idiot QB.
4th-Jason Campbell.
Probably have a 5th, 6th and 7th and I think they will get a compensation pick for Nanmdi. Possibly a 3rd. Maybe a 7th for the TE they lost to Seattle.
