Raiders came out on this deal smelling like roses...meaning, if DC wanted to hold the Raiders hostage for way more $$, could had. Lucky for the Raiders, Carr is not that type. btw, it's just a mater of time before some QB, such as a Marcus Mariota or Jameis Winston, could command 30m +

$25 mill per and he hasn't even played in the playoffs or won a playoff game or a division title. I know this kid is being paid on potential and could command that somewhere else. Carr better not dissappoint and no more bible thumper speeches.

I agree. Carr reminds me of Farve a lot I think he will be worth the he money. That praise Jesus shit does need to go! Raiders paid you! Not the invisible man in the sky.

I just hope he's the real deal and thats not putting up numbers in the regular season but LEADING and producing in the playoffs and winning in January...thats any great QB's legacy.

Dereck Carr is the real deal.

They did look like shit in week 17 and the playoffs especially on offense. That would happen to any team with a back up journeymen QB in McGloin starting and a 3rd stringer in Cook starting that never took a snap in an NFL regular season game. Carr can't force shit thinking he's Superman and or Brett Favre like he did in his first two years. We need the defense and running game going to take pressure off of Carr feeling like he has to do too much. First time we've had a legitimate franchise QB that we drafted since the Snake Stabler in the early 70's.

And Carr bails reggie's ass out by doing a friendly deal. What a kid. What a fucking competitor this kid is. I challenge anyone to tell me who in this league, other then Brady, has as much fucking heart as this kid?

He wants to win SBs, of course. But I bet this kid wants to win them for his teammates and coaches even more than he does for himself.

Of all the fucking QBs that could have fallen in our lap in round 2 like mana from heaven, we get the kid who will soon be considered the best in the league.

Show Them all what you've REALLY got this year, Derek. Cuz we all know you haven't even come close to peaking yet.

Fucking awesome. Nothing like having a franchise QB who's worthy of the moniker.
