Besides Palmer's declining mobility and arm strength, the Raiders just need someone to manage and not give it away Rex Grossman style.
Wonder if he would have enough zip to get the ball to Ford and Moore.

Now....Now....Al Davis has passed.....I'm sure the Raiders can now draft sensibly. Obviously we won't know until the 2013 draft.
