Al Davis always said his son was a dumbass, and he's proved that since inheriting Al's masterpiece franchise. I'm a Forty Niner faithful now, but still follow the Raiders quite a bit.

I think this is actually a good move for both Jimmy and the Raiders. Derek Carr was an enthusiast leader, but his QB skills were overrated in my opinion. I'm a fan of Jimmy's and want to see him succeed.
