    I would like to see the Raiders return to the days of:

    Stable/Branch/Casper/Biletnikoff and their gruesome tough defense.

    or

    Plunkett/Allen

    .... and let's us never forget the best at his position.... EVER!!!!

    Palmer is a Step up from ANY QB the Raiders have had on the Roster for many years .

    No one want Jim Plunkett when the Raiders picked him up either.

    You mean her response mirrored that of Barack Obama's, but in her case she was held to a different standard?

    one thing for sure.....

    Jason Campbells inability to slide just ended his career as a starter.

    He is decent, but he played in a system that was not his strengths. I hope he finds success in Oakland. Situations like this has been a key for success for the Raiders in the past.

    No. Living in Cincy, the Brown family are (*)(*)(*)(*)ing idiots who can't run (*)(*)(*)(*) and most fans here wish they'd sell the Bengals to an owner willing to actually put money into the team instead of trying to scrooge around all the time.

    Cincy sucks because the Brown family sucks despite their long pedigree in Football, current season notwithstanding.

    I remember when Herschel Walker entered his career in Cincy the (*)(*)(*)(*)er didn't do (*)(*)(*)(*) for 4 years but suddenly gets traded to San Fran and he starts busting out 1000 yard seasons like they are going out of style. It always happens cause cincy sucks so bad. They get great picks and then destroy their careers, usually through injury because they refuse to build a decent offensive line that can protect the backs, or trade them off where the players then finally come into their own with good teams, coaches and organizations.

    Players just come to Cincy to open their careers, slack around for a few years waiting for the "big time" because Paul Brown is a (*)(*)(*)(*)ty ass owner who refuses to do what is needed.

    haha this is so true. Been saying that since last year, Campbell does not know how to F'ing slide. He fumbled one earlier in the game by not sliding and looking like a goof on a headfirst dive.

    Im a die-hard Raider fan. I love the fact we got Palmer, hate the fact that it cost 1, possibly 2 first rounders. Im stoked for the rest of this season but kind of worried about going forward with an aging D-Line and weak Lbacker corps, as well as a pretty weak secondary. DVD is terrible.

    weve been looking for a qb since Sirigusa belly flopped rich gannon in the playoffs....

    2 1st round picks is a small price to pay if he can play at a high level for 5 more years

    We have one the Yongest Linebacking corps in the league (Our Middle guy is second year) ? And our D-Line is stacked with guys who could start & thrive elsewhere , We need help at corner until our Young Guys develope and we get Johnson back .

    You are right the LBs arent that old, but McClain haas not convinced me yet and Curry is still questionable. I hope Seymour and Kelly have 3-5 more years left. CJ is not making me feel much better at corner. Chekwa has looked better IMO.

    Add some playmakers on D via Free agency, and if Palmer pans out this roster is set for a couple years and could do some damage.

    NFL draft is like my favorite time of the year and it sucks when your team has no picks.

    Neither is Campbell - he hangs on to the ball waaaaaaaay too long.

    It's too high a price, but I wish the Raiders good luck. A change of scenery might do Palmer some good, too...

    What shape is the Raider offensive line in? Palmer's gonna need a solid line in front of him to be successful...
