What? You said that if Flynn is traded to the Raiders, he'll have a better season than Alex Smith.

Please explain how that is possible when the Raiders don't have shit for an offensive line, wide receivers, tight ends or running backs (McFadden has been nothing short of a bust).

Looks like it's Joeckel at 1.

Flynn deal shows Raiders don’t think much of rookie quarterbacks

So much for the Raiders being interested in Geno Smith with the third overall pick in the draft.

The reported trade that will send one-game wonder Matt Flynn from Seattle to Oakland means that the Raiders won’t be drafting Smith, or presumably any other quarterback.

Unless it’s all an elaborate smokescreen.

Flynn’s contract carries a base salary of $5.25 million in 2013, $2 million on which is fully guaranteed. In 2015, Flynn is due to make $6.25 million.

While Flynn has limited NFL experience, Raiders G.M. Reggie McKenzie knows what he’s getting. McKenzie worked for the Packers during Green Bay’s Brett-Favre-barricade draft of 2008. Within weeks after the Packers finagled Favre’s retirement by demanding a commitment early in the offseason, Green Bay drafted both Brian Brohm and Flynn.

It’s unknown what the Raiders are giving up to get Flynn, but McKenzie declared last year that the team won’t be trading draft picks.

For now, it appears they won’t be using any draft picks on a quarterback.

You don't actually think the Raiders and Chiefs were going to trade with each other did you?

Why didnt Dorsey ever make a play for Flynn? He obviously knows him pretty well too....

Do you even watch football when you can run it opens up the passing.

What if Oakland gave up a 2nd for him would people stop bitching then about the Smith deal?

The Qb receives the ball from the vented. This is called a "hike". The Qb will then throw the ball to a receiver. This is called a pass.

I mean seriously though look at what I wrote. You're acting like this is SO impossible so is it not reasonable then to infer that if this does happen......or even comes close to happening ... that Flynn would have to be given a lot of credit.......and cassel 2.0 by your admission has so many more weapons so he will have a MUCH better season than Flynn ' right?
