Raiders Shopping Multiple WR's?
According to Adam Schefter on the NFL network, the Oakland Raiders are shopping both Porter AND Moss, two of their best WR's.
This is very interesting, given the Raiders have the number 1 overall pick in the draft.
I have also heard the Raiders are in talks with the Detroit Lions for QB Josh McCown.
Does this mean the Raiders are not completely sold on JaMarcus Russell or is this some kind of smokescreen and they have full intentions of making him their franchise QB.
The difference with the Raiders (compared to a team like the Browns) is Lane Kiffin is a first year coach and a very young one at that. He has time to groom a QB, and wont be on the hot seat for a couple more seasons. Crennel I could understand not taking a QB because he probably only has one year left.
So the only remaining option I can think of, is the Raiders are VERY high on Calvin Johnson and perhaps this is Al Davis's man all along. We all know how he likes to rebel, and most mock drafts have Oakland taking Russell. Thing is, if they aren't sold on him, why not take the best player available in the draft which is arguably Calvin Johnson and draft a QB with their second pick. By that time they could get either Drew Stanton or Trent Edwards to run the show.
What do you guys think about this situation? Im very curious to see this year's draft, it could be one of the most exciting drafts in recent memory.
Until next time,
