One of the popular names tossed around to replace Derek Carr for the Las Vegas Raiders is Jimmy Garoppolo. While his best years were with the San Francisco 49ers, the linkage between Raiders’ head coach Josh McDaniels and Garoppolo is strong as they worked together with the New England Patriots.
Also, barring negotiations going south between the Baltimore Ravens and Lamar Jackson, Garoppolo will have the best track record of any quarterback available in free agency this offseason. However, many Raider fans still scoff at the idea of bringing in Handsome Jim.
