Carson Palmer Signs With The Oakland Raiders

The Oakland Raiders has added another quarterback to their royster, signing Carson Palmer from the Cincinnati Bengals.

Palmer, who announced at the start of the season that he will retire before playing with the Bengals, got his wish. The Raiders are giving up a 1st round and 2nd round draft picks for the veteran quarterback, after losing their starting quarterback Jason Campbell.

The Raiders love to throw the ball down field to compliment their great running game.The question is, does Carson Palmer still has the arm to throw deep downfield the way the Raiders love to do.

Did the Raiders give up too much for a 31 year quarterback, who does not have a winning track record? What happens when Jason Campbell returns? It's not like he blew out his knee or something, he should be very healthy at the start of next season.The Raiders has a favorable schedule for the rest of the season and should win the majority of them.This is going to get very interesting in the next couple of weeks.
