Better in terms of value and performance? I think you can make a good case for trading for Carson Palmer instead (lower draft pick cost, even if you bump it up to convince the Raiders to do it) or signing a Kyle Orton/Jason Campbell/Ryan Fitzpatrick type, instead.
You might get slightly lesser performance from the QB, but the lower cost in picks/salary adds quite a bit of value.

Orton is the only one I could get behind, but he was clearly done and looking for an out. Alex can man that role until we find the right guy versus any old guy.
