Report: Bengals close to shipping Palmer to Raiders

Posted by Mike Florio on October 18, 2011, 10:07 AM EDT


It’s trade deadline day, and it’s time to wake up.


The Raiders want Carson Palmer, and the Raiders just might get Carson Palmer.


Jay Glazer of FOX reports that the Raiders are close to a deal that would send Palmer from the Bengals to Oakland for a first-round draft pick and a conditional future pick. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the conditional pick is a 2013 first-round selection.


Raiders coach Hue Jackson previously worked for the Bengals. Glazer says that Jackson worked Bengals owner Mike Brown hard to get the deal done.


Jackson must have been very persuasive. The Raiders are 4-2 and the Bengals are 4-2. Both teams are positioning for the playoffs, and if the Raiders don’t win the AFC West, they could swipe a playoff spot from the Bengals.


The Raiders will have to scramble to fit Palmer’s prorated $11 million base salary under the salary cap. As of early October, the Raiders had $6.1 million in cap space.


The fact that the Raiders have given up a first-round pick, and possibly two, means that Palmer isn’t a one-year rental. And that could mean the Raiders don’t particularly like what they’ve seen so far from Terrelle Pryor, who now lands in line behind Palmer on the succession plan.


The move, if it happens, also likely means that Jason Campbell’s time as a Raider is over, and that if he returns from his broken collarbone before the end of the season, he’ll be sitting behind Palmer — unless Palmer stinks it up.
Florio says the deal is close but both ESPN and NFL Network have pretty much said it's a done deal. So are the Raiders a better team with Palmer or do you think he's going to not be the same Palmer he was in Cinci?

Palmer isn't worth a first round pick.

This will bite them in the ass.

To a point, but someone will always overpay. Oakland is not the only team known for that.

I think a fresh start is what Palmer needs. Good line, good running game, and some potentially dangerous WRs.

Should I be embarrassed that I secretly thought we should have kicked the tires on Carson? Cuz I'm not

But the question is, would you trade the next two years 1st round draft picks for him?

because at this point that's what we know it would take.

spoke too soon. VERGE of happening. 1st round pick 2012, conditional 2nd in 2013 (1st round if Raiders win playoff game) and restructuring Palmer's contract

If Colt isn't the answer, we'd be shopping in 2012 anyway, and since we have another 1st next season I don't see it as a major problem. Carson Palmer used to be a good QB. Where I don't think someone like delhomme ever really was.

If he could play decently (for him - which IMO is better than Colt's decent), I think he could transform our offense. He's smart and can throw the ball. Hesitant with his recent quitter attitude, but that would be my only reservation.

Hell no I thought the same thing! A 1st and a conditional 2nd? Done fucking deal where do I sign? Then I would have went out and signed his favorite slot WR T.J. Houshmanzadeh.
