"You can't help but appreciate Hue Jackson's enthusiasm when he called the acquisition of quarterback Carson Palmer "the greatest trade in football."

There's nothing wrong with Jackson polishing up this trade, and only time will tell where it will go down in history.

But really?

Does the Raiders coach mean the greatest trade this season? Because this deal certainly wasn't the greatest trade in franchise history – or Bay Area history.

The Raiders have dealt for quarterbacks before, with great success.

In 1967, Oakland shipped Art Powell and Tom Flores to the Bills for Daryle Lamonica, and the "Mad Bomber" led the Raiders to Super Bowl II."
