Reply to comment by [deleted] in [Rapoport] Sources: Raiders QB Derek Carr has informed the team he won’t accept a trade to the Saints or any other team. The team is expected to release him and he’ll be a top free agent. by BCLetsRide69

His current deal is favorable to any team looking to sign him. They can cut him every year with minimal dead money. By getting cut he get's to double dip on guaranteed money and pick his own team.

Carr’s extension only had $5.6M in signing bonuses. That’s the only dead money if he’s waived.

Which is great for Vegas, but there’s certainly no guaranteeing what he will get on the open market… Carr was financially spoiled while with the raiders …. Reality check incoming

The Broncos are paying Russel Wilson 40 million a year.Carr is objectively better than Russ over the course of five years. Derrick Carr is the definition of replacement level but that disregards the guys he is significantly better than. Which is half the league.
