That is a pretty bold statement. After seeing what Tebow and Newton have done in the NFL at the QB position, I think Pryor has a good shot at turning into an NFL QB.

I agree. I was simply pointing out that reporters and analysts across the networks were saying he had no shot at being a QB.

Low key...I'll leave that alone as he has been everything but low key, he was the main part of the Tatgate shitstorm and its aftermath.

What I was talking about is how every interview I read, his answers just rub me wrong. For example, when he's confronted about the QB position and stuff, he really just acts like a turd about it. But that's just my IMO.

Every interview I've read or seen with him he seems to be saying the right things in the right way. Compared to the interviews when he was a Buckeye he seems much more mature now.

Take your tattoo covered glasses off and you'll see Terrelle Pryor is not the devil.

what's Hugh Jackson have against TP that he would rather ship off two first round draft picks for Palmer as opposed trying to get TP in there and see what he can do?

I doubt he has anything 'against' him.

From most accounts, the Raiders think they are a contender this year hence the trade for Palmer. Having a completely untested rookie, who didn't practice with the team for the first 5 weeks, just one play away from being 'the guy' is pretty risky.

Why waste your 3rd round on a supplemental draft if you're just bringing in Carson Palmer without even giving him a shot?

Teams generally don't count on 3rd round QBs to start as rookies--keep in mind that counts as next year's 3rd rounder, so it's like getting a recruit to enroll early at school, getting a head start on the next season. ANY contribution from TP this year is just a bonus for the Raiders. They still need a #2 along with Palmer (and maybe the occasional Wildcat), and to me that seems like a perfect spot for a developing QB over the next few years...

He's no where near ready to play in the NFL as a starting qb. The Raiders did him a favor by giving away a first and second round pick for Palmer. Now he can spend a while learning how to be a qb in the NFL.

Carson being a cocksucking piece of [Mark May] has nothing to do with him playing in Cinci or Mike Brown. He was born and raised that way. [censored] Carson Palmer.

Bingo. Carson was a jerk long before he arrived in Cincinnati and he'll be a jerk long after he's left, IMO. Mike Brown being a good or bad owner has nothing to do with it.

I can't wait to see Carson Palmer throw a couple of pick 6's, take a knee when a play is still alive, run the play clock consistently down to zero, and fold like a cheap suit when being rushed in Oakland

Raiders have special plans for Pryor
Posted Oct. 21, 2011
By Eli Kaberon

Two new quarterbacks joined the Raiders' roster this week, but with completely different roles and expectations. Veteran Carson Palmer, acquired in a trade from the Bengals, will step right in as the starter, the man most responsible for helping the team reach its goal of a playoff appearance. Rookie Terrelle Pryor, fresh off a suspension following his selection in the August supplemental draft, will also impact the team but in a very different role.

According to a team source, Pryor's snaps under center will be very limited. Having missed much of training camp and the first six weeks of the regular season, his familiarity with the playbook and his development as a quarterback are not where they need to be for the coaching staff to trust him with playing time at QB. Yet the rookie has a live arm, good mobility and great athleticism, which means head coach Hue Jackson will find a way to put him on the field.

We hear there are specific formations and plays in the Raiders' playbook that can utilize Pryor's skills. These include Pryor throwing, running and receiving, both lined up wide and at quarterback. A version of the "Wildcat," which would feature Pryor and RB Darren McFadden, is believed to be one of the ways Jackson will use the rookie, per our source.
