You guys don't need to worry about Carr's contract. He has already publicly said he has made enough money in this game and from the last contract. This was when he was saying he would retire than play for another team.

Davis has the leverage now after the comments and Carr has mentioned taking less money.

He's going the route of Tom Brady. He will get paid handsomely but he won't be one of the highest paid anymore. Like I mentioned before....Carr's contract right now is a bargain when people were complaining.

Just have to appreciate Carr because before him we never had a player that would commit and play with us for so long (QB). He will be a legend with the organization. Ring of Honor?

In this case I think the Raiders should just let it ride and see what happens thru this season and 2022 as well. Following Carr's third year, the 2016 season , when he still had a year remaining for his rookie contract, the Raiders jumped the gun a bit by signing him to a long term deal , probably because they wanted to show faith. But this time around it's different because Carr is older and he is already set for life financially.

Carr balled out yesterday, it will be interesting to see if Gruden was holding him back or if he just performs one week and doesn’t the next. Consistency has been my main issue with Carr.

yes that is correct, however as I have said before it is rare for a "franchise" QB to go into his lame duck year without a new deal, it does happen but not a lot. Which would mean that if we plan on retaining him we have a couple choices, do a deal this year, do a deal in the off season or franchise him after 2022. The franchise option is the safety net option but can piss off players making them uninterested in resigning.

Frankly I think it is far too early to discuss what the Raiders should do with Carr. Let the season play out and then shift the focus to what the team needs to do moving forward.

Carr and everyone in house has to be focused on the next game. Nothing else matters right now. Nothing.

By "franchise him" you mean that for year 2023 the Raiders would have the option of retaining him for a single year, 2023?
Isn't it also an option that he plays under current contract for the rest of this season as well as year 2022 and the Raiders sign him to a long term deal following the 2022 season ?

it is but it also allows him to leave via free agency. he has stated he will not play for anyone else but those are hollow words, many players have said similar only to follow the money. Carr may be sincere but if Mark wants to retain him, why risk the possibility of him signing elsewhere.

I think that was the logic following the 2016 season, to lock up Carr so he would not sign with another team. This time around he is 6 years older and still has not played any playoff game football. My guess is that other NFL teams would have only moderate interest to sign a 32 year old Carr.
If Carr led the Raiders to a playoff win or two, this season or next season, then I think he will have earned himself a new Raiders contract.
But without playoff wins I don't believe the Raiders should resign him.

After Week 3 the talking heads were “pay the man!”

Weeks 4-5 silence.

Best bet is as you note to wait and see. Yes he played very well this week. He’s also played meh. There is no rush as the Raiders are in the drivers seat with his contract.

Carr says as much, however Steve Young is very very concerned about this.

yep, myself personally if I were in charge, wait til the off season and if you are not sold on him, let him play his lame duck year. Then you either franchise him, which will not cost a kings ransom or you compete to sign him if he is worthy, or you wish him well. all solutions are on the board at this time

Note
- mods have been discussing how to make the boards better and more usable
- given the polarizing nature of Carr discussion, we've tried to keep it from dominating every thread, however a Carr super thread was never the goal.
- the old Carr thread contains so much trolling and so many pissing matches that it just invited more.
- we decided to let new Carr threads form (please don't take this as a reason to turn every discussion on another topic into a Carr thread).
- This isn't 'the' Carr thread, it's just a good start at a fresh start. If there's a unique idea for another Carr thread, go ahead and start another.
- I picked a nice link posted by raiderandbulldog as the starting point to split this out of the other thread, apologies if I missed some prior amazing posts but this just seemed like a good post to start with and the thread was refreshingly void of trolling or stupid memes after that point :cool:

Carr's most obvious exceptional skill is long pass accuracy.
