Raiders News: Jon Gruden Says Nobody Else Will Be Dealt After Amari Cooper Trade

Scott PolacekOct 22, 2018

The Oakland Raiders are done trading players and are solely focused on the upcoming game against the Indianapolis Colts.

At least according to head coach Jon Gruden.

"We're not trading anyone else. We're trying to stay competitive and figure out a way to compete this next game," Gruden said when asked if Oakland would trade quarterback Derek Carr, per Chris Mortensen of ESPN.

Gruden's comments come after the Raiders announced they traded wide receiver Amari Cooper to the Dallas Cowboys for a first-round pick.

Cooper isn't the only impact player Gruden and the Raiders have traded since he took over as coach. They traded pass-rusher Khalil Mack, a 2020 second-round pick and a 2020 conditional fifth-round pick to the Chicago Bears for a 2019 first-round pick, 2020 first-round pick, 2020 third-round pick and 2019 sixth-round pick.

While losing Cooper and especially Mack was a blow for the Raiders, they are well-positioned to accelerate a rebuilding project with so many first-round picks. Their own first-round pick in the 2019 draft figures to be quite favorable as well considering they are 1-5 and just lost one of their impact receivers in Cooper.

That Gruden was asked about Carr and insisted there would be no additional trades is notable considering there is a 2019 out in the quarterback's contract, per Spotrac.

That implies the 27-year-old will still be featured in the Raiders' rebuild as they eventually shift their attention toward the upcoming move to Las Vegas.

Gruden will also be a major part of said rebuild considering he signed a 10-year deal with the team prior to the 2018 campaign.
