So if doesn't the Raiders don't get back anything?

And how many 1's did the Raiders give up to get him?


Wow.

Hmmmm, if they get the decent Palmer this could be a good move for the Cards. They did jump out of the gate at 4-0 when Kolb was playing a little above average. Then the floor fell out from underneath them when he got seriously hurt and they started rolling out the misfits at QB

The only question is, can they protect Palmer who is older and less athletic than Kolb? My guess is......no.

What a steal for the Cardinals! They will no longer be a walkover in the division. This is not good news.

Funny how USC guys are solid gold for you.

i like the idea of the Cards having an even less mobile QB back there in the pocket. I don't think there is any chance Palmer makes it through the season having to play the Rams, Hawks, and Niners twice

Nnamdi Asomugha chooses #49ers and has agreed to terms, per sources. He had also considered #Saints. #NnamdiWatch

You gotta be shittin' me! Palmer now gives the Cards a legitimate pro quarterback. They will be much improved.

They'll be improved, but they're still about as bad on offense as the Raiders. That OL is about as bad as there is in the NFL.

 

[NinerSickness]

Alan Branch just signed with the Bills for more than Nnamdi can make with the Niners.
