1) I really doubt Porter is an option. He is frustrated with his role in Oakland, he isn't going to do well coming here and being third or fourth on the depth chart.

2) Didn't we get Coleman via a trade with the Raiders? I doubt we could trade him back to them. Plus, he really isn't that good.

3) Singleton is our most tradable commodity. He is a savvy veteran, his price is cheap, he is in the last year of his contract and he is a decent starter.

4) I haven't heard too much about New England, but isn't one of their receivers (Branch?) holding out? But I think even he is too big of a name, I think we will get someone younger with just a bit of experience.

Since Green was primarily drafted to be a kick returner, it might be prudent to let him return a kick before we axe him.

Porter is currently pissed off at the Raiders because he doesn't like being the #2 WR in their offense behind Moss. But he's going to happily come to the Cowboys to be their 3rd WR for a team that doesn't plan on using a lot of 3 WR sets in this offense? Or be the 4th receiving option after TO, Glenn and Witten?

I foresee someone more in the line of Alvis Whitted. I think the Cowboys are going to look for a speedster, because Terry Glenn is really the only true one we have on the roster.

I think Green will make the team. We'll see, of course, but I think he'll be our best punt returner very soon. Like someone already said, he'll need to shine in preseason games on returns... and I think he will.

I can't see Porter coming here unless there's more to his unhappieness than simply wanting to be the #1 guy.

I do think we need to trade some of the guys who will be cut on defense because they'll have some talent. I just don't know who we'll try to trade with, at this point.

It's nice to be so stacked at DL and LB that our cuts are still good players.

These teams in question could also wait and claim them off waivers...'cause if we are willing to trade them, there's a good chance they won't make the final roster anyway.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is that we shouldn't expect much in return even if a trade does happen.

Is Joe Jurevicious still available? He played very well for Seattle last year and would make a nice veteran role player.
He signed with Cleveland. That would have been a great 4some with TO/Glenn/Jurevicious/Crayton.

Doug Gabriel if they would trade him would be a better option than Curry. The Achilles is a tricky thing to get back your explosiveness.

Didn't realize that was the reason he missed most of last season.

Stick a fork in him.

Curry tore his Achielles two years ago and tore his ACL last year. And we're going to have to give up a pretty nice package to get Doug Gabriel, because the Raiders are in love with him.
