Bleacher Report: Campbell to Raiders for picks...UNCONFIRMED RUMOR

[Zarg]

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/377142-oakland-raiders-acquire-jason-campbell-for-draft-picks

Raiders have acquired Jason Campbell for 3rd and 4th round draft picks.


is this real? Anyone know?

[dg28daman]

If this is true, it would be a great trade for us.

Edit: No where else seems to have reported it yet, and the report hardly seems legit. Not saying it isn't, but until I see a more reliable source reporting it, I'm going to be a sceptic.

[bird_1972]

Strange source.

I hope its true.

[blue collar]

The Raiders could not possibly be this dumb.

BR is a trash can IMO.

wow...I hope this is true...we need draft picks

[RSimports]

I pray that is true...Huge win for us if so.

[lovetoaster]

I would find that exceptionally hard to believe.

[Ghost of Nibbs McPimpin]

It's not true, look at the link. Some weird 'in-joke' thing and stupid poll is on that page. Hell, I'm almost worried it's some kind of set-up for a virus.

[MassSkinsFan]

Yeah - I haven't seen anything to corroborate this yet.

[Yeen80]

Nah. Im not buying this.

[RSimports]

Great point :(

[Timmy Smith]

Sounds completely fake to me.

[santana_4_prez]

No way...and I'm not even going to click on this link. Bleacher Report is garbage, makes PFT seem like CNN.

[MattFancy]

Bleacher Report isn't any different than people posting on here. Until Schefter or someone of the like reports it, I don't believe it.

[SantanaClaus89]

I think this is bs, but I love the picture they used for the story. LOL

[bird_1972]

Dammit!!!!

[Soup]

Oh please give us a 2nd round pick Al Davis.

But I'd take a 3rd and a 4th. I feel bad robbing from an old guy

[lovetoaster]

Sounds completely fake to me.

Yeah, I would be happy with either of those picks for JC. Getting both of them is highly unlikely IMO.

[JustAfan47]

lol.........BR is full of sh*t...

[acuratl1984]

Adam Schefter didn't report it, so most likely just a rumor/fake.
3rd and a 4th is awesome value for Campbell... I wish this was true, even though I do not wish Campbell to go to a **** hole like Oakland.

[redskin301]

I think this is fake

[JustAfan47]

Wait can he even be traded with out even signing his tender yet???

[lovetoaster]

I think this is bs, but I love the picture they used for the story. LOL

If the trade was true, I think this one would be more appropriate:

[ntotoro]

Wait can he even be traded with out even signing his tender yet???

I'm sure the team would work with his Agent to make sure the two events occurred simultaneously. Regardless, I don't think is is a legit story.

[TV aka TeeVeli aka BAMBAM30]

This site is just random people posting things in order to make themselves feel like they're really reporters...

NOT TRUE

[talk show host]

yeah, the thread title should be adjusted to indicate that this is totally false.

[Destructis]

I just googled Oakland Newspapers and found nothing on it also.

http://www.insidebayarea.com/raiders

I think it's crap

[flexxskins]

It is fake. I just checked Bleacher Report and there is nothing about that trade there.

[Iced Coffee]

3rd and 4th rounders? no way.

and br is one of the most unreliable sources

[sjinhan]

it is on bleacher report so this has like 0.1% legitimate written all over it…

so basically we trade

Campbell
2010 2nd round pick
2011 conditional 3/4th round pick (equivalent value to 2010 conditional 4/5th round pick)

For

McNabb
2010 3rd round pick
2010 4th round pick

"why you playing with my emotions" - big perm

[Hitman21ST]

Raiders have acquired Jason Campbell for 3rd and 4th round draft picks. Koo beanz huh. Anyway do you guys think the jacka is gettn fat or wat lolol??

That's a legit article if I've ever seen one :silly:

[Oldskool]

If you look at how the post was written, in the style reminiscent of a cracked out 3rd grader and with no source, you know that it has to be bull****.

[RumbleSkinsRumble]

I don't think BR would be the 1st to break this story. We should kno how true it is in the next 30 min.

[Soup]

this would have been a great april fools joke

[Enforcer_FFX]

haha, yeah, totally fake BR stuff....the link in the posting is just a photo of rapper, Jadakiss. lol

[Oldskool]

I don't think BR would be the 1st to break this story. We should kno how true it is in the next 30 min.

If you look at the story, there is one comment. Next to it it gives a time stamp that says "posted about 8 hours ago". If this was real, someone else would have been running with it already.

[DGREENHULK]

Adam Schefter didn't report it, so most likely just a rumor/fake.
3rd and a 4th is awesome value for Campbell... I wish this was true, even though I do not wish Campbell to go to a **** hole like Oakland.

http://twitter.com/ADAM_SCHEFTER

If JC does go to OAK that would make them the favorites in the Division:silly: Ok seriously if we can get a 3rd and any other picks I'd be ecstatic.

[kiingspadee]

Tweeted Adam saying

@Adam_Schefter Bleacher Report has posted http://tinyurl.com/y3syxug saying JC was traded to Oakland for 3rd and 4th picks - any truth?

[authentic]

Wow!!! someone please confirm!!!

[tricks]

I'd hate to see JC go to the Raiders, but we need the picks, I just don't think that BR would be the site to break the news.

[Destructis]

This is probably the fastest moving thread I have ever seen here.

Raiders have acquired Jason Campbell for 3rd and 4th round draft picks.


is this real? Anyone know?

The fact that you read that and still asked "Is this real?" saddens me somewhat.

By the way, I answered the poll. I voted for "o yeaaa lay off dat fried chicken boyeeee"

[fdarugar]

Does just anything get posted on there or does it go through some approval process?

[flexxskins]

We are giving this prank way too much attention. Exactly what the prankster probably wanted to accomplish.

[sjinhan]

Bleacher Report.. anyone with a computer and internet connection and post an article on there.. so 99.999999% sure its just made up.

[Titaw]

No chance this is real. I looked into the poster's past and, this dude more than likely holds a lifetime pass on the short bus.

[#98QBKiller]

Definitely not real, but we'd make out like bandits if we could get a 3rd AND a 4th for Candle.

[heyholetsgogrant]

MOD's please close and delete thread please!

[authentic]

perhaps this thread needs to get shut down.....I've looked everywhere any haven't seen anything mentioned about this mess.

[Forehead]

For anyone who cares, silverandblackpride ran an article about Campbell back on April 5th.

http://www.silverandblackpride.com/2010/4/5/1407301/rumor-mill-raiders-interested-in

They have voted 68%-31% in favor of acquiring him, but they aren't Al Davis.

[RenegadeTK]

so there is NO truth to this?

[Ghost of Nibbs McPimpin]

Gonna have to agree with other posters who have said, precluding disability, that there is no way the OP could have taken this seriously, I'm leaning towards disciplinary action for the poster.

Especially when one considers the ridiculous nature of what's written in the article (it's incredibly stupid and silly--not even an article) the fact that the media hasn't been reporting on it and no one here posted it.

The OP needs a vacation, or at least a public reprimand.

[STBonecrusher21]

Maybe they are keeping this open because TK knows there is something actually to this!!!

I was thinking the same thing. But Adam Schefter is usually on point with what the Skins are doing

[samy316]

LOL @ the pic in that report!!

Man their QB situation is bad out there.

WTF the pic in your signature scared me!

[JohnnyUtah]

" ho ho dun pick on him he jez tryn do his thang yadadada"


and people are actually asking if this is real?

Also, this person linked to an article in XXL Mag.

[DGREENHULK]

On ESPN First Take they reported that Mel Kiper thinks the Raiders are going to take Jimmy Clausen with the 8th pick and Dan Pompei reported that JC might not sign his tender in order to see if the club will release him so he controls where he goes and not to where the Skins trade him. It was also noted that the trade waters for JC have been luke warm.....so that just adds to the BS factor of the report.

[Coolio47]

The Raiders could not possibly be this dumb.
Two words: Al Davis.

[dahibachi]

i'll say this... if we manage a 3rd and a 4th for Campbell and then fleece the Lions for their 2nd rounder for AH, many a Skins fans will change their tune about the McNabb trade as well as the thought that "nothing has changed."

[TK]

It's true.
I saved a lot of money by switching to GEICO.:ninja:

[Audible_Red40]

Yeah I wish!

[SMOSS89]

It's true.
I saved a lot of money by switching to GEICO.:ninja:


I wanna cry.

[RWJ]

What picks, TK. Tell us a little more.

[Coolio47]

It's true.
I saved a lot of money by switching to GEICO.:ninja:
lol don't be messing with us!:laugh:

[honejc]

It's true.
I saved a lot of money by switching to GEICO.:ninja:

15 minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance by switching to geico!

[GritzRgreat]

u guys kill me sometimes

[Chris Worthy]

ninja smiley. :)

[c4man5282]

It's true.
I saved a lot of money by switching to GEICO.:ninja:

It's true that it didn't happen.

That is what is true right TK?

[TK]

Consider post #65 the ES IQ test. :)

[Stugein]

Bleacher Report: Where you too can make **** up and be just like Florio!

[RWJ]

unconfirmed rumor is true.

[Titaw]

Consider post #65 the ES IQ test. :)

By the looks of it, some need to ask the guy who posted this article on BR where he got his lifetime pass on the shortbus!

[SMOSS89]

Consider post #65 the ES IQ test. :)

But that's just plain mean. That's like the Cowboys in '05 thinking they would win with a 13-0 lead type mean.

[MassSkinsFan]

So easy a caveman could pass it.

I was just signed to the Washington Redskins. Look for #43-Williams.

[tricks]

Yeah looks like BS, Google shows nothing on it. It appears the guy that posted it was trying to get people to take some stupid poll and may have used that to grab attention to the poll, that's what it looks like to me anyway, he's just a Raider fan on a blog, I doubt he has any inside connections LOL

[Coolio47]

God I hate the offseason.:mad:

WTF the pic in your signature scared me!

lol, his signature is very creepy.

Amen it's a constant roller coaster for Skins fan

[dfbovey]

I tend not to trust news bits that have "koo beans huh?" or an "lolol" in it.

[GaryGreenMonk]

I heard the Patriots are giving us a 1st rounder for him... and then they are trading Tom Brady to St. Louis for the Rams 1st round pick for their 2010-2020 seasons.

:silly:

Can someone please close this thread
