[Jakest3r]

The Raiders are preparing to make a run at Michael Vick, according to NFL sources. The Raiders package would include receivers Randy Moss and Jerry Porter plus the No.1 overall pick in the 2007 draft for Vick and the Falcons first round pick (10th overall).

Noooooooo!

I want Randy Moss, not the Falcons.

 

[longtimefan]

thats A LOT for the falcons to pass up I think

 

[Jakest3r]

Hell, i'd do it. You'd be getting Moss, Porter, and then Jemarcus Russell. Good deal imo.

And The Raiders just hired a new head coach... USC O.C. This rumor is making more sense.

Vick in the AFC would be interesting. Would Atlanta try to pick up another QB or would they go with Schaub?

Why would the Falcons not go with Schaub.... he may be (Note I typed MAY BE.) the best Back up QB in the NFL. The kid is a future star in my opinion.

If this is true, the Falcons can set this kid with two un-happy very talented WR's.

Moss and Porter would have a an impact on the kid's confidence and success ratio.

The Raiders get Vick which would sell tickets in Oakland. In fact it would have a huge impact on season ticket sales, something the Raiders need.

However, I think Moss and Porter can be had for Vick in Atlanta right now by not giving up the first round pick.... But offering them another pick.

Atlanta is sick of Vick based on the sports radio here.

Al Davis maybe giving up more than he needs too.

However, Al is thinking at the age of a 101 year old mind, and we all will lose our ability to think at that age.

This should be interesting.....

Now.....if Oakland gives up Porter AND Moss to get Vick.......who would Vick have left to throw the ball too???

 

[GakkofNorway]

he's not gonna throw, he's gonna run hahahaha

The guy I know who has inside information that has to do with all packer stuff just posted this..

"The Moss rumor...although many people are getting ahead of themselves....there is some truth to it. It has been discussed but specifics have not. A real important factor that works in the Packers favor is that Moss and Favre have the same agent....which is huge. "

The WR they draft with the 10th overall pick.

That'd be my only guess, they could get Dwayne Jarret as the 10th pick, or Ginn. It's a good deal for the Falcons though, It's gonna be real hard for them to pass it up.
