Wouldn't be the first time, were used to screwing up deals.
But after the last few seasons he's STILL an improvement, and getting better inside our system.

All I'm saying is basically I wouldn't give up a #1 pick on a QB.
Fresh outa school, their either gonna light it up, or tank...very seldom is there an in between.
Now take into account the JR factor where ya pay some lazy slob 60mill having NEVER proven him self....I think ya get the point.
Gimme a solid 2nd or 3rd rounder who's proven himself in school, and flown just under the "hype radar" *most* of the prolific HOF's. were NOT #1 picks.

Too damn much hype in being #1.
It basically means the WORST team in the league wants your inflated value as a player to deliver them the Lombardie around a squad who couldn't beat their way out of a paper bag the season before

Just because Crazy Al made hilariously awful decisions when drafting a QB with the #1 pick doesn't mean drafting a QB number one overall is a awful decision.

Also, #1 overall picks now get a fraction of what Purple Drank got.

Congrats on making a Franchise QB easier to acquire. Enjoy that brokedick for the next few years.

Can't wait til you draft the nest Russel, Leaf, or Akili Smith.

At least, after 30 years, we've decide to start dating again...

Sorry, it's our time for a Franchise guy.

No, we mean the incredibly overrated quarterback you traded half the team for who has yet to lead your Raiders anywhere near the playoffs.

That phrase looks familiar...

OH SHIT, ABANDON TEAM! THINGS WILL ONLY GET WORSE!

:D

you do realize that you won 2 more games than the Chiefs....and those 2 wins are against Jax and KC...yup vastly improvedROFL

Well we could of used those 2 draft picks to pick Ty Jackson, Glen Dorsey, Ryan Sims, Gallery, Russell and a slew of busts. Palmer is better than that overrated bum you have in SD. He might be the only guy who is better at throwing INT's than Palmer.

Wait wait wait wait wait... this is delcious. Hold on one sec.

Are you really suggesting that we SHOULDN'T draft a QB in the first round?

I'll bet you're ****ing pleased as punch that one of Al's last big diarrhea episodes was acquiring Carson Palmer instead of risking another Jamarcus Russell.

AFC West smack talk at its finest. Your crappy QB isn't as crappy as mine. Your crappy team isn't as crappy as mine. Every fan of every damn team in this division should make a banner in protest of their team for crying out loud. This is what it has come to? Geezzzz.

The Donkeys are the best team in this division and they got curb stomped by AFC's real teams, or closest to it, compared to the rest of the shit in this conference, the Pats and Texans. Chiefs fans seem to be the smartest because we have had enough of it. The rest of the fans are just happy with 8-8 it seems. Why else talk shit? It doesn't make sense other than there are some dumbass fans out there. We want to win another Super Bowl before we die, getting a top pick is the only way besides changes in the organization.

That is what we all choose to think but not how I saw those games. Every freaking donkey game they lost so far they had multiple TO's and got down big. In the end against all of them if they get the 3rd down stops they need I honestly don't think the other team would of stopped Manning. It's pretty simple watching that team they are a threat to the super bowl. That offense is gelling and the Manning system is taking over. It pisses me off to no end that Melonhead signed with that pile of crap franchise with horseface running the show.

I think they are a threat to go the Super Bowl as well. The conference doesn't have any other team besides the Pats and Texans, IMO, that could hold a fork to an improving Manning-led team. Manning isn't clutch in the playoffs so that will probably hurt them, but again, the conference isn't that strong so you never know.
