Why would the Raiders give up a gem like Bowers? They need to build on the talent not get rid of it. Their next QB needs to have someone to play catch with! 
 

If the Colts would just prioritize the position for once they could find their own guy in the draft….or maybe, dare I say, sign a free agent?

the raiders have to do whatever they can to get a qb, that means they may trade anyone for draft picks for draft capital to move up to draft a qb or trade for one. imo a te is no help if they dont have a qb

The Raiders have only 2 games left against teams with loosing records.

Jags and Saints.

If they win only 1 more game(probable), it will probably be a top 4 pick in the draft. They have all their picks and future picks plus some additional mid and late round picks.

RIGHT NOW I don't see the neccesarity for them to sell Bowers. 

The teams above them are all qb needy teams,too. So collect picks for what, if nobody in front of you is willing to make a trade, knowing that the Raiders will pick a QB,too?

In that scenario,they may take a shot at Lawrence for a 2nd rounder maybe?(Really don't know what he's worth).

All in all, I can't see them trade Bowers to us nor any other team that can't give them a better draft position through that trade. (Like Jags,Titans, Giants or whoever picks in top 3).

Yeah, I'm with you.

He's hell of a TE and every team would be thankful to have him on the roster.

But maybe we're lucky to find a gem on our own somehow.
