The future of Terrelle Pryor

What does Oakland do with him after this season?
It's painfully obvious that he's the only reason this team has any wins.
That said, I'm not super dazzled by his play or anything. But he's definitely good, and with more help on his line and at the skill positions I think he could be a real QB.
Would it be more likely that OAK drafts a QB in the 1st, or drafts a skill/OL guy to help build around Pryor?

The Oakland Raiders need to trade down, accumulate draft picks, and build an offense and defense around him. He's not the problem, but I also don't see him as the long term solution on offense.
That said, build around him, and then draft a quarterback down the road.

Their D is complete garbage. Nick Foles has scored 42 points against them by himself in 2.25 quarters.
Their offense has nothing. Their line is hot shite, their "star" RB is injury-prone, inconsistent and likely gone after his rookie contract expires. They have no one at WR, you wouldn't have been able to name a guy out of that group until Pryor started throwing to him.
They're playing above their talent level because they feel elevated by the spark he's providing. It's a joke to believe otherwise.

They're having a bad game. It doesn't change the fact that the D has played well before today. It wasn't Pryor that forced 5 Chargers turnovers. It wasn't Pryor that held the Jags to 9 points. And it sure as hell wasn't Pryor's 88 passing yards and 2 ints that beat the Steelers last week.

Pryor has been up but also way down.
And it's not just because "the Raiders have no line or receivers" as you suggest.
As a Raiders fan, it's painfully obvious he looks for one receiver and then takes off...he doesn't let his line set the pocket - and actually makes the line look worse than it really is.
Raiders have had some good running games when DMC is in there.
Pryor isn't the answer in a passing league.

This, that way they'll see if the problem is him or not. If he doesn't perform at least you have a good defense and some offensive weapons to lure another QB

I do somewhat agree with this. I just feel like it might not be a well-received change to get rid of the only player to give a team a spark in a while.
Does anyone know how much time his rookie contract has left on it? Could they trade him?

The QB is taking too many opps away from the skills players to create that spark
Thats never a good thing in pro football. Egos are in play (and paydays)
