    From FoxSports

    "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)."

    I read this on another forum and don't have the link, sorry.

    It would be the best thing for Atlanta. Could you imagine Schaub throwing to Moss and Porter. Could be a thing of beauty for them

    What a steal for the Falcons, if this it's true.

    They'd be better off asking for one of the Raiders good defensive players and drafting Calvin Johnson at #1, me thinks.

    talk about ridiculous. Moss sucks, Vick sucks, i guess Porters kind of ok, but who knows. maybe the Raiders should just trade Moss, Porter, and the 1st rounder down and STOCKPILE picks, rather than get the most overrated player in the history of sports, and giving up 2 receivers too.

    Or maybe get Vinny. He is surely the answer.

    It won't happen, atleast not like that.

    They already have two 1st rounders invested in Roddy White and Michael Jenkins. They also traded away TJ Ducket (a 1st round pick) for Leile in a 3 way trade. So essentially they have 3 1st round picks invested in the position.

    And now they're going to trade for two more starting WRs and have all 3 invesments ride the pine? Yeah, don't think so.

    Can the Raiders trade for Vick? Sure, you can do alot of things when you picks are so high. But there's no way it will go down like that.

    what a terrible trade for the raiders.......so i guess its going to happen

    who the hell is vick going to throw to? he couldnt get it done with like 3 first round WRs in atlanta, if moss and porter leave oakland hes gonna have absolutely nothing, especially behind that line.

    So Atlanta then could have Matt Schaub throwing to Randy Moss, Jerry Porter, Alge Crumpler, Roddy White, Michael Jenkins & Ashley Lelie along with having the #1 overall pick in which they could trade down for more picks...

    Wow... I don't see this happening but if by some chance it does this would be a GREAT deal for the Falcons and I don't think that Bobby Petrino could possibly screw it up... even if he's a college coach.

    Don't believe it. Usually when Raiders make a run at someone , they do it very quiet. If there is this much talk out there, Im having a hard time believing there is any truth to this rumor.
    Just for argument sake this rumor was true. Raiders would probably be targeting local boy M lynch at 10. Vick and Lynch. Raiders have a new head coach its Lane Kifflen.

    Wow the Falcons would be an instant playoff team if that happened...

    Vick is so overrated and Shaub is so underrated.

    Go look Up Schaub stats. I think alot of teams are overrating schaub.

    Most people seem to think that the gamble on that is long overdue. Vick isn't a quarterback.
