What's crazier about the rumor? The idea of former Super Bowl MVP Russell Wilson in a Raiders jersey?, Or seeing Derek Carr traded to the Seattle Seahawks after one of his best seasons to date? Either way, this is a trade rumor that made the rounds earlier this year and it appears that there might still be interest in making it happen.
"My instincts tell me Mark Davis wants rockstar stuff in that stadium," Mike Silver said on The Colin Cowherd Podcast when asked about Mark Davis's plans for the team. "Mark Davis has a kind of Russell Wilson, not fixation, but he was kind of into that concept from what I was hearing. Mark Davis, I think, has felt 'we can do better than Derek Carr.'"
In the end, it remains an interesting possibility, but there doesn't seem to be a good reason to give up on Carr right now. He was a passing leader all season long, helped lead the Raiders to three overtime victories this season, and is one of the promising talents on the team. Getting rid of him doesn't make sense, even for someone like Russel Wilson.
