I think that's something you made up in your head. I think there are very few Raiders fans that view him as anything but 2nd tier. He's been a top 15 QB nearly his entire career and save for a season or two he's never been elite. Remember he's never had a defense ranked higher than 20 in his entire career. I'm not sure a lot of elite QB's could overcome that. I think he's a good guy and I hope he does well and I'm curious to see how he would fare with a team that actually has a good defense.
As for the Raiders, the new regime has decided to move on and hopefully it works out. I just hope that they don't bring in Garoppolo as the Raiders don't have anything near the 49ers defense and he's not a guy you want slinging the ball because your defense is giving up 20+ points every week.
