The Oakland Raiders picked up Matt Schaub through a trade this offseason to run the offense and that leaves Terrelle Pryor in the backup role for the team. The team already has Matt McGloin in that role and Pryor could be pushed down to the 3rd on the depth chart. The team has been looking to find a trade partner for Terrelle Pryor with the arrival of Scahub, but have not found anything to this point.
Teams are hungry for quarterback help, but I am not sure if there is any team that is in a hurry to add Pryor onto their roster. Teams already have seen what he is able to do in the league and there are a few good quarterbacks that are available through the draft that have shown some nice potential.
The Raiders could be looking for a late draft pick for Pryor, but any compensation would be good for the team. The Raiders offseason program begins next week and the team is looking to trade him before they start that up according to Pro Football Talk.
Not sure what the team would do with Pryor if they were unable to trade him. They may just end up cutting Pryor and some teams might be willing to wait and see what their next move will be.
