Don't kill the messenger here but I don't believe this for a second. Gruden preference has always been seasoned vet QBs.

Report: Raiders are shopping Derek Carr
Posted by Mike Florio on March 2, 2019, 6:03 PM EST
Well, now the offseason is getting interesting.

Master Tesfatsion of Bleacher Report reports that the Raiders were shopping quarterback Derek Carr at the Scouting Combine.


While few players are unshoppable (Patrick Mahomes, Baker Mayfield, Aaron Donald, maybe Deshaun Watson), it’s not currently believed that the Raiders have serious interest in trading Carr.
 
I'd bring him in for late draft pick and a much smaller contract. Pay Dak $25+ mil or Carr $10 mil? Assuming we can even get a lower contract from him that is.
 
Once it's announced you're shopping a player, you might as well follow through and get rid of him.

Imagine if he's their starter week 1 after this. Is he more likely to have some great season, or an even more disappointing one after discovering he's only there because the team couldn't find a clean way to get rid of him?
 
I would not be opposed of trading our owner and coach but unfortunately we had no takers.
I would like to ask gruden if he would take the Jones boys as gm and president of personnel etc, and just see what he would say,
 
Dak is the face of the Cowboys for the next seven + years. Raiders will never get a call from us .
 
If I'm Garrett, I make the move knowing that there is no way Dak delivers. Garrett is about to get himself fired either way.

It's a pleasant thought but I'll bet Jerry would nix such a deal. His love for Dak knows no bounds! JG's on thin ice, though, no doubt.
