Raiders | Looking to Acquire Owens?
Thu, 30 Jun 2005 09:41:47 -0700

WPVI.com reports there is some speculation the Philadelphia Eagles could trade WR Terrell Owens to the Oakland Raiders for WR Jerry Porter. If the trade were to occur, the Raiders would have two of the best wide receivers in the NFL: Randy Moss and Terrell Owens. Moss told reporters Wednesday, June 29, he could co-exist with Owens as long as he got the number of passes he deserves.

Here's the link. Crazy rumor if it turns out to be true.

That's one receiving core I'd have nightmares as a defensive coordinator thinking about.

Nothing is impossible when it comes to the Raiders... They are the kings of bloated contract numbers and fuzzy math.

 

[Jarv]

We play the Raiders this year, don't we.

Sure do, part of our west coast trip

This would be a great trade for Philly. Raiders would probably blow up. Bay area would be one big mushroom cloud before it's all said and done with. Can not see this happening.

I think there is un-capped year looming in the next 2-3 seasons.

Moss and Owens

 

[jterrell]

That would be so sweet. Moss and TO trying to outpreen each other.
The Bay would definitely fall off into the ocean with those 2 ego's weighing it down.

Bad thing is Porter would kill us yearly for a long time

WOW the off field entertainment between Moss and Owens would become stuff of hollywood legend to bad they moved out of LA

 

[k19]

Maybe they'd both "out do" their contacts and hold out

 

[DakAttack]

I actually would love to see it happen. It would great drama to see each week. I can't see how those 2 can coexist on the same team.

 

[WoodysGirl]

Seriously if this trade does come to pass, the Raiders are setting themselves up to truly outscore teams, ala KC. Their D wasn't that good last year, but if it can hold, they might be able to do some damage.

I do. There skills at the Wr position actually complement each other.

This trade may have been a possibility _before_ Porter signed a 5 year deal with an 8mil signing bonus in February, but its a stupid idea now. The Raiders would have to give up Porter, cut more salary, and give T.O. a new deal.

There's no question, the physical ability is there. It's the barn yard thing that will ultimatly kill it. One roster to a barn yard and all.

If this trade blows through, I feel sorry for the AFC.

I'm more worried about us. You put a guy like Porter together with that Philly offense and you'll have trouble on your hands.

Man. Tickets for the circus are getting expensive.

Part of me actually would like to see this trade go through. I mean seeing Moss and Owens together on the same offense ripping through a defense would be a lot of fun to watch.
