Oakland trading down to #3 makes a ton of sense to me. They don't want a QB, and Johnson and Peterson should be there at #3. BTW, I think Russell goes #1 overall now.

Oakland has Lamont Jordan,and pays him a lot of money. They're not picking Peterson. RB is the least of their concerns, and they have a ton.

They need most help at O-Line and QB. Their receivers are actually pretty solid even if you include Moss. Not sure what they'll do with Porter, but Curry isn't bad if he doesn't get hurt.

So let me get this straight. You guys think that Lamont Jordan and Justin Fargas are better than Aaron Brooks and Andruw Walter? If anything, the Raiders might have a strength at QB.

The Raiders have holes everywhere on offense. They can take whatever offensive player they want and be correct in doing so.

QB- Brooks and Walter-One guy that's proven he can handle the position and one guy who is young and has a big arm plus a little bit of game experience.

RB- Jordan and Fargas- Two guys that might get cut. One will be gone for sure, neither were ever any good to begin with.

WR- Curry- Moss and Porter are both gone. At the very least they need to compiment Curry, if not add a #1.

OL- This was the most glaring weakness for the Raiders this past season. Unfortunately, they are probably not one player away, and in fact might be five or six players away.

TE- Do they still have Teyo Johnson? Do they wish they did? No taking a TE #1 overall, but perhaps Miller or Olsen will be available at pick #33.

[/ QUOTE ]Yes I think that a healthy Lamont Jordan is a better football player than either of those QBs. I also think that franchise QBs are hard to come by and thats what gets drafted early in the 1st. There are quite a few adequate RB options that will be available through FA/trade. I still think they should trade down because the #1 pick has more value than taking a non-QB with it this year imo.
