The Raiders & Bengals are close to a trade that would send Carson Palmer to OAK for a first-rounder in 2012 and a conditional pick in future

Holy. Shit.

Can they blame this one on Al, still? That would be a crazy trade.

The trade is expected to be completed by deadline. Hue Jackson has a close relationship w Mike Brown and really worked to get Brown to budge


Wow...

 

[cincygrad]

This is awesome. A first rounder for Palmer? Mike Brown wins!

This would be a great deal for you guys and finally squash the Brown vs Palmer feud that I think was more of a distraction then anything. Good to see the Bengals playing some good ball, should make for some tough matchups down the home stretch.

Wow!

Did Al Davis posses Brown's Body?

The value can't be that high for an older quarterback with only one or two playoff wins

As the Raiders give up a 1st rounder in 2012 for Carson Palmer & conditional 1st rder in 2013, Bengals also had discussed LB Aaron Curry

And a conditional 1st rounder to boot?!

Sounds like OAK gives up a 2012 first and gets back Palmer and a 2013 conditional first rounder. Not OAK giving up two first rounders.

Carson Palmer to the Raiders now official. Compensation expected to be a 1 in 2012 and a conditional 1 in 2013.

Un-fucking-believable!!!

Then I stand corrected. Mort wrote his statement very poorly, and if it is really a 1 and conditional 1, then OAK GM must be flying HIGH.

2 #1's for Palmer, if Brown dosent take that hes foolish

 

[DanBengalfan]

so now we have to root for Palmer so we get a better conditional pick, lol.

But hey, maybe Brown isn't as stupid as we thought. Maybe Marv sent him some sexy ladies (or men if he prefers) to get him liquored up. Whatever works.

glad to be done with it, I was obviously tired of talking about it. congrats on everyone who thought we would get a good deal for him. (you were right)

I'm sure the conditions have to due with making the playoffs and possibly even winning games. Certain percentages, TDs, etc.

What I want to know is what is the low end of the condition? 3rd rounder? 2nd rounder?

Its a #1 next year, with a guarantee #2, that could be elevated to a #1

Praise the Lord! Drinks all around!

Jesus, great trade for a player that was never gonna play again.

 

[cravnravn]

Palmer is damaged goods...I thought you all said MB was stupid?

 

[Tubbs1518]

Well he passed on two 1st round picks for Ochocinco so I guess this time he decided to take it.
