In all honesty, the right thing to do if Davis does indeed move the franchise out of California is to change the name completely and start fresh (like Cleveland Browns to Baltimore Ravens '96).
Eventually there can be a new team in Oakland. It makes sense actually since then you have a relocated franchise, and a new stadium can be built and eventually a "new" Raiders franchise can be brought back.
