And Carmelo was going to remain in orange. It just doesn't happen.
And frankly, if he makes that decision I'd drop him just for being that dumb.
Peyton did the same thing despite being the most ready you could possibly be for the pros after three years, and rookie contracts were a lot more lucrative back then.
lol @ using Pro Bowls as any type of actual stat. Its a popularity contest and the top QBs typically always pull out, thus making the lesser players become "Pro Bowlers"
if Carr was so great, and since finding a QB is so hard to do in today's NFL, you think the Raiders would even think about getting rid of him...?
Like I said, you don't want Carr. Set your sights higher than that.
Because the Raiders are dumb, Mark Davis needs to save money, and he isn't Gruden's pick, he's moving everything that isn't bolted down and wants to clear the decks for Vegas, Oakland fans be damned when they go 2-14 the next two years. Carr's regressed since two years ago but it's not like he's got some great talent around him either, guys like stonehands Cooper, past his prime Jordy Nelson, and Jared Cook aren't scaring anyone. Neither is the corpse of Marshawn. I could actually see Carr having a second life somewhere else.
I mean just two years ago he threw for nearly 4000 yards, 28 TD's, 6 picks and went 12-3 in fifteen games. The year before he was around 4000 yards with 32-13 TD/int's. Even last year he was meh but not as awful as the Raiders' record would suggest.
