MattsRiff 01-23-2011, 04:32 PM Hmm, think Donovan or Albert would look good in tiger stripes?
Carson Palmer wants Cincinnati Bengals to trade him or he may retire, sources say - ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=6051119)
GTripp0012 01-23-2011, 04:42 PM Yeah, I've written this elsewhere, but I would definitely go after Carson Palmer, when Palmer comes available. There's a point at which the price may go too high, but I doubt there will be a better player on the market in the next two years at the QB position. Andrew Luck excluded.
tryfuhl 01-23-2011, 04:59 PM Maybe it's part him, part the team, but he hasn't looked very good in a few years.. couldn't justify that anymore than the McNabb trade

Exactly!! If you have watched him close, his arm strength seems to have waekened badly
skinsfaninok 01-23-2011, 05:10 PM No way in hell would I want Palmer. Old and washed up
GTripp0012 01-23-2011, 05:10 PM Maybe it's part him, part the team, but he hasn't looked very good in a few years.. couldn't justify that anymore than the McNabb tradeWell, if they pay the McNabb price, I pretty much agree with you. He'd still be a better acquisition, just not a justifiable one
GTripp0012 01-23-2011, 05:15 PM No way in hell would I want Palmer. Old and washed upYou were for the McNabb trade, though?

You can't compare the 2, Mcnabb is a border line HOF that been to multiple playoff games and to a SB.
What's Palmer done? O yea nothing. And he's had plenty of talent around him

And he's had plenty of talent around himThere's no way McNabb's a borderline hall of famer, being that he's at the end of his career and doesn't qualify for the hall of fame by pretty much any criteria. Palmer is much closer to the middle of his career than McNabb is, and I think he's been better than McNabb going back to 2005. He certainly was this past season.
I can't speak as to the declining arm strength/skill sets of one or the other, and wouldn't expect Palmer to have another run quite like 2005-2007 here, but I'd expect him to look better than 2009-10 anywhere once he escapes Cincinnati. He's was that offenses' best player this year. I think Chad's the one who is most obviously in decline.
GTripp0012 01-23-2011, 05:44 PM Palmer in 2010:
3970 passing yards, 6.8 Y/A, 26 TDs, sacked just 4.2% of the time. The 20 INTs are one of the reasons the Bengals lost 12 games. But like I said, escaping Cincinnati will be good for him.
