Somewhere's in the 4 year. 2.5 million with like a half a million dollar signing bonus.
I LOVED Rich Gannon. He took charge in the huddle and KNEW how to lead. Plus he had lots of weapons!
One of the VERY few that I can respect when he critics the Raiders because he played there and know how it really is working under Al Davis and the pressure to be a Raider QB.
Yeah, I am not expecting them to have a QB as good as Gannon for some time. Someone must have had a man crush in KC to keep Grbac over him.
IMO the Raiders have peaked as far as how far they can go until they can get a strong and stable coach. Looked like maybe that would happen with Cable over time, but then suddenly beating all of your rivals twice doesn't mean you keep your job. There's no reason to expect anything less than 2-3 different HCs, maybe 4 different OCs over Pryor's 4 year contract. Just not a recipe for success or a 'commitment to excellence' as Al would put it.

Na, he'll move to TE or a slot recvr if he has a strong enough desire to get ON the field.
3 days later, the Raiders have yet to sign him.
Three days later, still no Terrelle Pryor contract | ProFootballTalk

Not surprising, they are depleted at the LB after another season ending injury, he will have to wait....simple as that.
...or perhaps Terrell can play linebacker! Dude is athletic if nothing else...

Being/looking athletic does not equal being able to hit or tackle. He is a QB and right now, LBs are what the Raiders desperately need.
Yes, and no idea. His agent also has a 3rd round pick who is a Raider... should have been a pretty quick deal. Pryor could be wanting more... Raiders might want to pay less... Raiders could be holding off so they can sign a LB and make other roster moves to free up cap space to sign him, etc.
Haven't read about any leaks leaning one way or another.

Pryor should count for less than ~$750k of the Raiders 2012 cap though depending on how it's structured, which is why I think there are people wondering why it isn't done.
Just watching some talking heads discussing the suspension and explaining why Pryor should fight it. He would get paid during the appeal, and more importantly he would be allowed to get practice reps he would be barred from otherwise...
I think the pickings are bare now and I have a strange feeling something strange is gonna happen....
