Bob Carr is a familiar face for Raider fans on social media. He’s the owner of two websites dedicated to the Raiders, SBReport.com and Raiderfans.net, but he’s best known for his photography work from the sidelines. Carr has maintained relationships in and around the team for years and offered an encouraging post on Khalil Mack’s status on Friday afternoon.
He believes a deal will get done before September 10 when the Raiders host the Rams.
“Sources close to Raiderfans.net are reporting that they expect the Raiders and Mack to have deal in place by Week one,” Carr said. “Don’t believe all the trade rumors, this deal will get done. We expect an extension to include around $90 million in guarantees and the contract to be 5 or 6 years.”
Ok, it’s not coming from Adam Schefter and it’s not coming from Ian Rapoport, but obviously there are connected individuals in the Raiders building that believe Mack’s contract is going to be resolved before the regular season opener.
At a time when very few are offering much in the way of good news that Mack will be in uniform for the Raiders in 11 days, you’ll take what you can get, right?
Hey, it’s a lot more credible than coming from a Detroit limousine driver. You can be sure of that…
