FTA - For that to happen, the Raiders would have to receive two first-round picks for Carr from a team other than the Texans, which they would then package with their own first-rounders in 2021 and 2022 to present a compelling offer of four first-round picks to the Texans for Watson, who has reportedly asked be traded.

Two first round picks for Carr? :snort:

Two first round picks for Carr? :snort:

Thats what i was thinking too but not to that magnitude lol. Again, its the writers opinion.

I could see a 2nd and a 4th...maybe a low 1st and a 6th...

This could change things. IF Deshaun Watson comes to the AFC West, the West is toughest division in the NFL, and I believe steel sharpens steel. FWIW.

If the Raiders trade Carr, does this mean Derek won't be inviting Chuckie and wife from next door over for any more BBQ's?

I don’t think he has to worry about living next to Chuckie. These guys make so much money that houses for them are like checking in hotels. Not much effort at all. They will sell and move out in a Jiffy.

I think this is Cowherd’s dark horse for Watson
I say never in a million years will be willingly enter the AFCW with Mahomes and now Herbert
if he does, instant mad respect his way

There's an 'Arms Race' on in the AFC WEST.

Raiders Not Shopping Derek Carr

The Raiders are not shopping Derek Carr, and the interest from multiple NFL teams proves the value seen in him by the organizationHIKARU KUDOUPDATED:FEB 3, 2021ORIGINAL:FEB 3, 2021
Quarterback Derek Carr isn’t going anywhere.

While that doesn't mean there is no chance that Carr might get traded if a team were to offer a ridiculous trade in favor of the Silver and Black, it's stating the fact that it is highly unlikely.

The point is, the Raiders aren't shopping Derek Carr.

Reports online this week say that the Raiders could potentially acquire Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson in a three-team trade.

They absolutely could.

Sports Illustrated’s Raider Maven learned and reported on Monday that some teams have been inquiring about Carr. However, the Raiders are not “actively shopping” for a new quarterback.

Of course, the Raiders will take the calls. They have to. Who knows if there is a team willing to pay a ridiculous price for Carr. The Raiders will field those calls, but they aren't shopping him.

General manager Mike Mayock said last week that Carr had an "exceptional" year.

While Carr didn’t make the Pro Bowl, he did still have a solid season.

He was 14th in completions, 11th in yardage and 11th in touchdowns

Carr was ranked 10th in passer rating, 10th in completion percentage, and had a three-way tie for average attempts.

Remember, for the Raiders, in order for trade with Carr to make sense, Las Vegas must receive a quarterback and personnel that will immediately show results.

The Raiders aren't rebuilding. They're on the cusp of making the playoffs and with an improved defense could make a push deep into those playoffs.

The biggest takeaway here though is the fact that teams are keeping an eye on Carr.

If the Raiders are receiving inquiries about Carr, and we know they are, that means he’s still one of the best in the NFL right now.

How many games can Raider Nation recall that were lost because of one drive or one call that didn’t go the Raiders way?

There’s still constant rhetoric about "Carr’s not my quarterback" on a daily basis within Raider Nation. If he isn't your quarterback, then the Raiders are not your team. Because he is their quarterback.

We see it all the time. We hear it all the time.

That’s ridiculous.

Derek Carr is your quarterback and the interest of multiple, contending teams asking about his services should tell reasonable people all that they need to know.

Okay, so if the Raiders will keep Carr and ALSO acquire Watson, sounds like a good old QB CONTROVERSY...THAT should work wonders for a healthy locker room...

Is that what you got from that? LOL

I read it as they arent shopping him but if teams call they will listen and see what crazy offer they may get. No one here thinks they will get offered two first round picks which would be a crazy offer.

Starting out with a high asking price is usual bargaining strategy...Chuckie and Mikie would probably eagerly take one late first rounder, maybe even a 2nd and a 5th...

[gzubeck]

To a team like the 9ers Carr might be worth two first rounders. If I was the raiders I would seriously consider it. They could even draft a developmental QB in the first round that could be ready for next year.

[gzubeck]

More water cooler fodder and the possible reason for Rivers retiring...Luck might be coming back to the colts.
