That is an interesting scenerio played out in that article. It does make alot of sense.

yep!! an interesting article .... if T O ends up in silver and black ill be forced to once again change my oppinion of him.
very similar to drafting winslow once he dons the silver and black he'll be a Raider... However I still have nightmares of J.Shrader poor judgement

T O is a fine athelete not doubt .. but he sure aint worth the 2nd overeall pick not sure he's worth our 2nd round

Bring him aboard

Well if we wanted to get fitz and all I think I'd rather take owens because hes experienced and ready to start

I think I'm seeing what Willis was talking about.

I want him. He has attitude but at least its not like Winslows. I would trade our #2 pick he is proven and the whiners aren't in our divisiion. SFGate finally said something worth reading. And Glenn Dickey at that. Where that other thread with the favorite pairs. OP Owens and Porter. Damn that would be awesome. If we can get Owens w/o giving up our #2 pick then we can trade down and save some money. By the looks of things we aren't going to get a replacement for Turnstile Simms shame

So We might as well pump up the D. This is of course if we get Owens. Owens is in denial if he doesn't think the S & B uni's are right for him. Sometimes a winning attitude can be a good thing. I feel Owens has that passion. You know what would really be funny is seeing Gannon and Owens attitudes together on the field for the same team. Owen doesn't necessarily have to break away downfield to make positive yards RAC. He is a big target and with the exception of last year has good hands. I think it is a win win sitchi ation for us.

Willis made a reference on how we might be getting our information in the future. Now we have BK and RhodeRaidah dropping hints about TO right before FA kicks off. It could be nothing or it could be alot.

I missed that. I only seen a reference to SFGate. Did they post something about TO before? Thanks for the response

This guy is an asshole. This guy won't be happy unless he gets his huge contract, which we can't afford to pay. I don't know what the status of Brown and Rice are, but there would be a whole lot of

and

. Everybody would be crying about how their not getting the ball. It would only be a matter of time before Owens has one of his patented tantrums. Let him be the Eagles problem!
