As far as Flynn goes, I could think of a handful of other guys with expierence that would have come cheap and been a better alternative then Flynn.

Guys like, David Carr, Charlie Whitehurst, Derek Anderson, Shaun Hill, John Kitna.

flynn has way more upside than any of those guys.
raiders paid too much for palmer, who is probably thrilled. poor campbell, guy can't catch a break. probably his best year, and now he's out for at least 6 weeks.
