Carson Palmer Being Traded Means....

Carson Palmer has "veteran backup" written all over him. If Kitna wasn't around he'd be a good second here. I think he'll go to a playoff caliber team seeking a good backup or a mentor for a younger more talented QB if he doesn't retire.

lol, Palmer will get a starting job somewhere, he's no backup.

I've always hated the Palmer hype. For a long time people still considered him among the best QB's even though he hadn't really done much of anything, only over the last year or so has the opinion of him started to come back to earth but I do think he's a good QB.

Palmer had 1 bad year and they are willing to trade him? If I didn't have a QB i'd take my chances.

Same here. Get him out of that lousy organization and I bet he's a good player again.

I doubt they do it again, but I wouldn't be too happy to see him in Washington.

Oh, and once again, I think we're going to regret not being at #6 when it's all said and done. One of these QBs is going to command a ransom in a trade down.

They run a 3-4. Clark Hagans and Joey Porter at OLB. Nuff said.

As for Cam Newton the Bills, Bengals, Cards, and the Skins are probably all over him. Wouldnt even shock me if Washington trades up to #1 to take him

You're right. I completely forgot that they switched to the 3-4 this year and with Dockett and Campbell as their DEs, for some reason, I thought they stayed with the 4-3. My mistake.

Why ? Mark Sanchez didn't.. and the Jets moved all the way up from #17.

No problem. You do get credit for noticing Docket and Cambell. Those guys can be a pain to block. They are desperate for an OLB. Quinn for the win :)()

Well the success of these young QB's early may change some teams opinions on getting and starting one early. Bradford, Stafford(if healthy), Freeman, Sanchez, Ryan,

Also, a lot of people expect the rookie scale to be set in place. So if any team would be scared to pay these guys that would alleviate some of their worries.


Locker is a very important guy for us in the Senior Bowl

Seems like that was a below-market-value trade, though. Maybe that's why the Browns are where they are. ;)

Key point.

Same here, especially considering the Bengals had "Team Obliterator" on their roster.
