Report: Raiders Interest In Matt Flynn Legitimate
(3/28 1:30 PT)

The Facts:
Following up on the ongoing story. ... With Carson Palmer's divorce from the Raiders looking more probable by the day, Oakland is zeroing in on another West Coast quarterback. Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports reported Thursday that the Raiders have "legitimate interest" in acquiring Flynn from the Seattle Seahawks.  Reported by NFL.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It makes sense. Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie worked for years in Green Bay, where Flynn toiled for the Packers behind starter Aaron Rodgers, so the 27-year-old passer is something of a known quantity in Oakland's front office. Flynn also has been linked to Jacksonville, but a source told Silver that the Jaguars have "little inclination" to pursue him. That leaves the Raiders in play to conceivably obtain Flynn for a mid-round draft pick. But NFL.com's Marc Sessler suggests the sticking point for Oakland is Flynn's heady $7.25 million price tag for 2013. Even if the Raiders wind up releasing Palmer, $9.34 million of his $13 million salary would count against the cap this year.
