Where would you objectively rank Carson Palmer?



This may be a tough task for alot of Raider fans out there (including myself) to neutrally answer this question. Alot of talk is made of how Palmer may be washed up, doesn't have the desire (at least by more mainstream media sources) and how he is just getting flat out old.

I on the other hand see a guy who has thrown for over 4000 yards multiple times on some decent at best Bengal teams. Lets not forget how he dropped over 2700 in only half a season's worth of starts with a young receiver corps he didn't even practice with (and DMC had his annual foot injury).

On the flip side, his pick numbers have been far too high, even when he was widely recognized as a top 10 or even top 5 QB in this league. So Nation, do you rank Palmer with the Manning's and Brady's, the Gabbert's and Sanchez's, or somewhere in between?
