Vegas Oddsmakers Salary
The Las Vegas Raiders have a lot of holes on their roster, but with Derek Carr at quarterback, they have among the best situations in the NFL when it comes to his performance and cost-effective contract he’s playing under.
Offering tour packages for individuals or groups. If you’ve placed a wager on a game in Las Vegas over the past 30 years, there’s a good chance you bet Peter Korner’s line. He’s provided odds for most of the major sportsbooks across.
Due to those circumstances, Carr is unlikely to be traded this offseason despite rumors suggesting he could become available, but the Raiders aren’t likely to reward him with a more lucrative payday, either.
According to Vic Tafur of The Athletic, Las Vegas is in no rush to alter the current structure of his contract, which runs through 2022 and is relatively cheap considering the high level of play he’s provided:
“The Raiders aren’t really looking to trade Carr or give him an extension right now. He has improved in his three years with [head coach Jon] Gruden and has a very friendly, pay-as-you-go contract for two more years.”
Carr’s base salary will be less than $20 million in each of the next two seasons. A comparably good quarterback, Dak Prescott, could get franchise-tagged again by the Dallas Cowboys this offseason and make almost twice that in 2021 alone.
Prescott ranked ninth in Pro Football Focus’ grades in 2020 among quarterbacks, while Carr was 10th. During the 2019 campaign, Prescott was just ahead of Carr as they rated 10th and 11th, respectively.
It is true that Prescott has unsuccessfully negotiated a long-term contract with Dallas over the past two years, but he’ll eventually get his due on the open market if and when he hits free agency, or in a tag-and-trade scenario.
The same can’t really be said for Carr, who’s somewhat stuck in limbo.

Is Carr underappreciated by the Raiders?
The Favorites In regards to this year’s top teams, Gonzaga and Baylor have been the cream of the crop for most of the year. They have pretty much had the top 2 spots to themselves the entire year. We had Gonzaga and Baylor both between a 100.5 and 102.5 power rating for a majority of the season and have had trouble distinguishing between the 2 teams. Recently, Baylor has gone on pause for COVID 19 which has caused us to drop their ratings 2-3 pts once they returned to play. Michigan has made quite a leap over the course of…
