It isn't a bad trade yet. Mike Brown has a tendency to make some terrible draft picks. The Raiders made an effort to win now, the Bengals are still in their 'rebuilding' mode they have been in for the last 20 years. I think most will be surprised that Carson has some better days ahead. Mike Brown never made the commitment to surround Carson with a team while he was in Cincinnati, ironically enough he has made decent moves around Dalton to help him succeed. Had the same been done for Palmer, he may have still been in Cincinnati. Mike Brown gets two picks, but he can screw them up just like he does with a lot of his other picks/players.
