Football Raiders poised to pursue Tom Brady - Page 6

No to mention he isn't leaving a cake walk division for one with Mahomes.

I agree... makes 0 sense to move at his age.

I like the fact that the Raiders are sending the underlying message out to their team that Carr is not the guy. Great for team chemistry this off-season even if Brady doesn't go to Vegas.

I love it, but it appears that Carr won’t be around very much longer.

Gruden has to be thinking,”I come out of the booth to coach, and one of the greatest QBs in NFL history just happens to blossom on my rival’s team a year after I’m here”.

Wasn’t this from last week?

Then there was the report pats will give him 30 mil per. He’s staying with pats.

Never going to happen. I'll go on record and say that "Brady will never play for any other team. NEVER!!!"

Good thing there isn't a team in Thailand. Lots of children there for Brady to kiss.

If he went anywhere it would be to a team like Chicago that's ready to go, just add QB. He's not going to a garbage franchise like the Raiders

Let him go to them. He is toast now.

While I think Brady under center in Oakland is a fools errand, it makes plenty of sense for a team moving into a new stadium in a new city.

And next season he can still beat up on the AFC East

Home Games:
Denver Broncos
Kansas City Chiefs
Los Angeles Chargers
Buffalo Bills
Miami Dolphins
New Orleans Saints
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Indianapolis Colts

Road Games:
Atlanta Falcons
Carolina Panthers
Cleveland Browns
Denver Broncos
Kansas City Chiefs
Los Angeles Chargers
New England Patriots
New York Jets

With Brady under center I think it looks like they could go at worse 8-8 and at best 10-6.

Its a short-term solution but WTF will the Raiders do long-term at QB. Yeah they have the picks to trade up in this draft but if they are signing Brady, they need to draft one of these young stud WRs.

This if from the Athletic. The Raiders just want to get rid of Carr. Brady is an option but they are also looking at others like Tannehill.

I have written several times about the disconnect between Carr and Raiders head coach Jon Gruden and this quarterback market is too tempting for Gruden to ignore. Carr has trade value, which is why everyone from the Raiders always says beautiful things about his future when speaking publicly. But Carr has no future in Las Vegas and Gruden will do everything in his power to fix the position. Will Brady entertain Vegas? It’s hard for me to see Gruden and Brady co-existing even though both men have a competitive drive. The Raiders’ offensive line would be appealing to Brady, but would he be willing to run the West Coast offense after so many years in his offense? Call me skeptical.

—I could see the Raiders making a move for Ryan Tannehill if the Titans do not franchise him. Tannehill would give Gruden the athlete he covets at the position, a player capable of making something out of nothing when the play breaks down. Would Tannehill serve as a good bridge player? Yes, though that’s nothing to get too excited about in the long term, because to beat the Chiefs and Mahomes in the AFC West, Gruden is going to need to find his elite player of the future, not just a bridge.

Perfect!

Honestly what's the difference between Brady, Tannehill, Rivers and Carr?

They guy I think I'd go after is Bridgewater.

Regardless you are going to have to overpay for these guys. If it were me I'd try to draft one and just keep Carr for another year

Not saying I wouldn’t enjoy it, but I doubt Brady brings his family to Las Vegas. Just doesn’t sound like a choice he’d make.
