As much as Moss would be an impact player, the price of Buchanon and a #1 (#7 overall) may be a bit too high.

This would have a big cap hit, with Moss and Woodson eating up 20 million dollars (if CWoodson is franchised again) and loosing a 1st round player and a 1st round pick as well.

Likely a FA RB will cost significant $$$ also.

What will be available to fix the defense? Not enough unfortunately.

The Raiders will risk becoming all "O", no "D" and have a payroll from hell.

At least we will play Indy well.

If Moss would redo his contract and Min would accept a conditional, future 1st round pick, then I think there is some better justification for the trade.

Let's just hope Al doesn't pull the trigger at that price

what if we get minnesotas #1 pick thrown into the mix...that would be pretty tempting to turn down....

That may happen... if the new Min ownership is insane..

I think Raiders may have anothers team draft choice if they put a plain Franchise tag on Porter, let another team bid and simply walk away instead of matching the offer

this way, Raiders lose porter, a 1st pick, and Buchanon (Is really a lost if he doesn't want to stay with the team?)
But the Raiders win Moss, and a couple of draft picks
