The Raiders = Bengals West

I hear ya, but they have to do something while they have Trubisky on the cheap, assuming he's even going to be all that good.  And when you consider they spent a #7 overall pick on Kevin White I can't see the fanbase getting too upset with tossing picks at a known commodity like Mack.

Plus, the last time they made a bold move was for Cutler and at least they were playoff relevant and made it to the NFC Championship game with him.  The other years where they haven't been taking big swings that could set them back they've done very little winning.  Basically, they winning 3-7 games when they are playing it safe, so let's see what a risk gets them.

They're also a team that has been trapped in a division with "the best QB to play the game" for the last 25 years with no end in sight.  If Mack doesn't pan out they can go right back to winning 6 games per year, either way. Setting back a franchise 10 years when they're still living off a single SB win 33 years ago isn't too daunting a threat, ha.
