Raiders quarterback Derek Carr picked up Jordy Nelson at Oakland airport on Wednesday afternoon. That's when the recruiting pitch started and it carried on for hours, through dinner at an East Bay locale.

Nelson didn't head back to the airport. He stayed in town, and his camp started hammering out details of a new deal. It was done Thursday morning.

Nelson agreed on terms of a two-year contract to join the Raiders.
