If you could pick any NFL player to be a Raider...

right now, free agency, contracts aside. WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY...I know its a litttle fantasy in a Dungeons and Dragons nerd sort of way, but don't hate...
I'll start...

I would pick Joe Thomas from the Browns as our starting Left Tackle. This would give our Franchise QB the instant security he needs to confidently establish himself in the passing game. Plus he's fresh, young and made an instant impact for a struggling franchise, allowing ProBowl caliber performances from a noname QB who had struggled the previous year, and providing open lanes for an aged Jamal Brown...

Who would you pick Raider Nation?

Randy Moss. Yes, people will hate me for this, but the Randy Moss who wants to win is the best wide receiver in the game.

I was thinking Joe Thomas too, he is probably the best young LT in the league, he would fill in our biggest hole on offense.

Damn, I was gonna say Joe T...without protection in the pocket, any QB is pretty average.

So I guess I'll have to go with my second, I would say Ray Lewis..maybe even more if he was younger.

My reason...simple...BEAST!

I like Urlacker ... so he's not as young ... he is a BEAST
Great veteran presence, and work ethic.
One guy I would want in the fox-hole with me.

We could really use a WR like Tory Holt, Steve Smith, or Roy Williams too.
