Rotoworld: Raiders Could Trade for Russell Wilson

[jarntt]

Yep, because Payton is backed by owners (when they traded for him from NO) and they traded for RW when they had a different coach.

They are sacrificing next season and probably going to select a QB in the '25 draft. Payton is going to remake the team in his image. He is in it for
the long haul.

They will release RW.

They might release him this year but my point is but pretending that you know they definitely will, like it’s a no-brainer, is silly.

Not after the jimmy g fiasco.

Yeah, probably can't say anything is definite or a no-brainer but Russ being released seems to be about 95% likely at this point.

Thats is click bait.....just like this one:

Justin Fields Rumored to Be in Trade Talks with Las Vegas Raiders

The Chicago Bears will need to explore trade ideas for Justin Fields. ESPN thinks the Las Vegas Raiders are a good trade partner this offseason.

I believe JF would become a Raider before RW......but I still dont believe anything until it happens.......

This makes sense. Pierce probably has people in his ear that were Justin Fields believers.

Maybe Kingsbury even backed out because he didn't want another murray style QB and as the interview went deeper he was told the plan.

Pretty sure Kingsbury backed out because it was unclear on what the Raiders are doing at QB.

The Commanders are going QB at #2 and prolly trading for the #1 pick so they can take Caleb. Who Kingsbury worked with this past season at USC.

There is 0.0 percent chance the Raiders trade for Fields with Getsy.

Are you sure? He kept using him.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Are you sure? He kept using him.

Sure lol. Because the alternative is Bagent and its not really his call who starts I'd imagine.

But I can assure you in that interview he had to pin the failures of the Bears offense on Fields moreso than himself.

This isn't to say Justin doesn't deserve blame mind you.

But Getsy got fired and the coach kept his job. That's painting him as the fall guy.

on the magazine cover it screams fall guy, but what were the discussions behind the green door?

I don't disagree with your last part, but that's not the Raiders or Pierce or Getsy doing the painting. How hard do you think it would be for Pierce to convince himself the Bears organization is a mess and everyone looks worse there?

Pierce could be happy with a top 5 rushing offense and then his defense will do the rest, throw it to Adams on third downs and boom.

No, because Jacobs is likely gone and they will be turning to a younger RB in Zamir White.

Be more of a passing offense next season.

If they move for Fields it's because Pierce wants to run it.

 

[shopson67]

If they move for Fields it's because Pierce wants to run it.

If they wanted to move for Fields they wouldn't have hired Getsy.

 

[eaglesnut]

If they wanted to move for Fields they wouldn't have hired Getsy.

Unless, of course, Pierce is just fine with a top rushing offense that the Getsy-Fields combo produced the last two seasons together.

You know... the actual discussion here.
