Lord knows there's a lot of bullshit on X, like constantly, but I've seen a few rumblings of some kind of trade between Baltimore and Las Vegas, with Lamar Jackson going to the Raiders.

Uhhh.... no thanks. First of all, the #1 overall pick has to be completely off limits, barring an incredible return. It just doesn't happen very often. Secondly, Lamar is due an absolutely MASSIVE cap hit of like $74.5M in 2026. It will be reworked, but he's still owed a lot and he'll still want a massive contract.

For Mark Davis, it would put butts in seats at Allegiant and I would guess that's an attraction in itself. But I hope it's bullshit.

Besides, how can anyone even consider a move like this when they don't even have a Head Coach yet?

I’d be intrigued. Jeanty + Lamar + Bowers certainly is a heck of a skill player trio. I really don’t see Mendoza as a high end NFL QB. The dollars obviously complicate things but I can see why they would explore the idea.

The answer to your question is listed in the paragraph above = Mark Davis. You’re parsing this as a rational person, as I’ve stated before, I don’t think he is one.

The Raiders have always loved the splashy moves, since they last won the last SB; Al modeled thus behavior for Mark.

If I’m the raiders, I’d be thrilled to trade out of the #1 pick for Lamar but I’d want the ravens to give me their first back for the salary.

Unless you think they’re going to be smart enough to not take Mendoza

My opinion hasn't changed; unless they absolutely LOVE Mendoza, I would much rather they trade out of the #1 slot to someone that does. The haul could really fill some holes on the roster, get a QB in the spring of 2027.

Roster full of holes, always the right move imo
