He’s probably not signing anywhere until Rodgers makes his availability known. The Jets are the team he’s relying upon to up his squeeze on the Saints. He’s probably already got a tentative deal in place with them, but that number naturally rises if the Jets find Rodgers is unavailable and get into serious bidding.

There’s nothing else new that’d cause Carr to suddenly sign before then.

Also it’s clear the team doesn’t want to lock into him for 3-4 years. They see him as an obvious upgrade but is still not a “he’s the franchise” guy.

you had to anticipate the beating you were going to take on this one - but I do give you credit for pursuing.

What's your take on Berrios?

Dumbed by raiders too.. talk about a trainreck franchise lol. But that is why I like him, because they don’t ha 

Remember when @Raideraholic obnoxiously screamed at us for an entire offseason that the 2022 Raiders would be SB contenders?

Good times.  Almost as good as the memories of a hearty Jimmy Dean breakfast.

He will be back to tell us how badly Carr sucks and destroyed a SB contending team if we sign him

Well we could also end up with better waiting. Waiting two weeks (in late Feb and early March, no less) isn’t in the same galaxy as waiting two years for some perfect/utopian team scenario and makeup before making a move.

Carr is an upgrade who’d make watching games more enjoyable than they’ve been. I don’t see him getting any further than one and done in pretty much any scenario, and a merely pretty good player a guy you rush to sign and bypass a special player.

There’s no actual binary choice of guaranteeing Derek Carr the next 3 seasons otherwise the franchise is doomed.
