Raiders preparing to make run at Vick

he'd fit it nicely with that organization IMO

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).

Sucks for Jim Mora, maybe with Shaub he'd have a chance in hell of winning, that is if he still had his job

jim mora does have a job

Quote:

Jim Mora has reached agreement with the Seahawks to join their defensive staff as assistant head coach/secondary. These discussions apparently began Friday. Mora had been in the mix for the Dolphins' head-coaching vacancy, but Miami went with Cam Cameron.

I emphasized Mora's relationship with Hawks president Tim Ruskell in my analysis yesterday, but it appears Mike Holmgren was leading the way on this one. I get the sense from talking to people in the organization that Holmgren feels some added urgency heading into the final two years of his contract, particularly after coming so close to a second consecutive NFC title game. Mora and Holmgren worked out the details Saturday. The team confirmed the deal moments ago.

"I'm excited to have the opportunity to add someone to the staff with the energy and passion that Jim brings to the game," Holmgren said in a statement. " He is a strong teacher and talented coach who will make us better."

And from Mora: "I'm thrilled to join not only what I believe is a quality organization, but for
the chance to work with one of the finest head coaches in the league. That, coupled with the opportunity for my family to be in the great northwest is extremely exciting."

Vick in a Raiders uniform? Al Davis can print money. Imagine the merchandise sales.

If I were the Falcons I would pull the trigger on that trade. Al Davis is getting really desperate.

Well, theres 1 less team to worry about in the AFCW for several more years.

Fits in nicely with the trade king carl is about to announce;

we're trading LJ to Oakland for Aaron Brooks, Jerry Porter and a third rounder.

**Bowser** · 01-22-2007, 11:26 AM

Wow. If that's a legit offer, I'd jump on it.

**noa** · 01-22-2007, 11:32 AM

Why on earth would the Falcons want Randy Moss? They already have several unreliable receivers. It sounds like a good deal for the Raiders. They get a franchise QB without having to groom a rookie and they get rid of Moss and Porter, which seems like it was already one of their priorities.

Good fit. They'd never win anything, so noone would be messin' wit' his cooler.

RedThat · 01-22-2007, 12:45 PM

Wow...Thats a crazy trade.

I wouldn't make that trade if I were the Raiders. That's too much.

**Dave Lane** · 01-22-2007, 01:04 PM

Isn't that called "Pass the Trash"? Vick for Moss... Classic

That would tremendously help the Falcons.

They are never going to succeed until the Vick pall is lifted from the organization.
