Derek Carr out…Aaron Rodgers in?

If No. 4 is definitely on course to be traded from Vegas this offseason… Raiders star Darren Waller is making it clear he wants Rodgers to replace him.

In fact, the tight end is all but recruiting the Packers star to Nevada while assuming Carr is a goner … and saying, “If you come, it’ll be lit!” at Jay Glazer’s Super Bowl party in Arizona this week.

Waller added in his pitch that Las Vegas is a better place than Green Bay “in most cases.”

“If he comes,” Waller said of Rodgers, “I’d be a happy camper.”

Of course, many pieces would have to fit together to make Waller’s wish come true. First, Carr would have to be traded. Then Vegas would have to trade with the Packers for Rodgers.

But Carr already seems close to being moved – he just met with the Saints this week. And all signs seem to point to Rodgers also being jettisoned from Green Bay (that is, if his isolation retreat leads him to another year of football).

Where Carr might end up – Waller told us he thinks the signal caller could go to one of three spots…two of which are in the AFC.
