I don't think Porter will be a Raider next season he just doesn't do enough I know the whole team is playing bad. But we have other WRs that can play I bet Curry,Gabriel,Morant can do the same things Porter does every week. And they don't even make half the money JP makes.

After watching him drop what seemed like a dozen catchable balls one wonders if that is what he wants. To be playing that way with the kind of money we pay him is just plain wrong. It would not hurt my feelings if we cut him...

We will have a interesting offseason!!!..If we keep Randy, we need to trade porter, and keep 3-4 third wr types, and feed Moss and jordan the ball!

I'm hoping Curry comes back healthy and fully healed. He was our best receiver compared to Porter. Curry in the slot was money in the bank. Moss and Gabriel or Morant as 2nd and 3rd wr set. Porter just isn't very consistent. I think it will depend if Curry comes back then Porter isn't much of a keeper imo.

I think Randy is going to want out of Oakland. As far as Porter, I think its just like the rest of the team, no will to play anymore. He has the talent to be a top 5 receiver, but not when things are going bad. Curry, I believe will be let go. This is the second year in a row with the same injury. We are going to have a hard time finding FA that will want to come here and play in this mess. Big Al is going to have to clean house, pull out his best sales pitch, and show them the money. Are team is a wreck, and not even close to fixing it.

use porter as trade bait. he is a very talented player that we could probably convince someone to take for something decent in return.

you can't trade porter unless you have somebody that is going to be better. Gabriel is not better, he is just as inconsistent as Porter. Morant had a few good games but hasn't gone up against better CBs. Why he's not playing now is a mystery, but not surprising since this staff seems to have no clue about personnel. I don't think it would really hurt us at this point to not activate Zeron Flemister or Delawrence Grant for a week and activate Morant - and actually play him.

I wouldnt expect Curry back next season personally. Looks like he came back to early this season. As hard as he worked, I would like to see him be able to come back and play in the future. We tend to keep players until they qualify for aarp anyway so Curry shouldnt rush back.

[sarcasm]Sure looked like he wanted to catch the ball against Washington and catching the ball over the middle and getting creamed by Taylor and Lynch says he wants to catch the ball. I guess he just upped and said the hell with it all of the sudden? go figure [/sarcasm]

I don't think Porter will be traded. I would have said that trading Gabriel is a better option except I doubt Curry will be back. Maybe if Morant can step up Gabriel may be the one to go.

The passes Porter dropeed were probably from surprise instead of seeing the ball sail 6 feet over his head (LOL!).
