    Eagles: Owens joining Moss in Oakland?

    News
    The Raiders' busy offseason may not be over yet. Philadelphia television station WPVI is reporting that there is a trade in the works that would send disgruntled wideout Terrell Owens, who had 1,200 yards and 14 touchdowns for the Eagles last season, to Oakland in exchange for Jerry Porter and possibly a draft pick. Porter caught 64 balls for 998 yards and nine touchdowns in 2004.

    Terrell Owens: Headed to Raiders?

    Update: A report has surfaced that the Eagles are in negotiations with the Raiders on a trade that would send Owens to Oakland for Jerry Porter, according to ABC sports.


    I don't really know what to make of this. Moss and Porter is already a deadly combo but having Moss and TO would give us possibly the best WR duo ever.
    I just don't know if the benefits outweigh the risks here, Porter has gamebreaker potential and Owens is 31 years old with a pain in the ass agent.

    Kerry Collins suddenly becomes a first round draft pick in fantasy football leagues across the land.

    Kerry Collins is having the highest jump in fanstasy drafts in history first with getting Moss alongside of Porter. Now if they throw Owens in there he might be getting up higher and higher in value....if he has Moss and Owens on the same team and doesn't throw a crap load of TD's this season he is going to be crucified lol.

    That would either be the greatest receiver tandem ever or, they'd kill each other over who gets the ball.

    Phillip Buchanon is burnt toast and that is my opinion.

    Terrell Owens is the best WR in the NFL (not already on the raiders), Buchanon cannot cover a Lions FB on a fly route.

    And if It was up to me, I'd rather keep Porter.

    Moss, Porter, and Curry is what they want -- Moss, and TO together will be a disaster.

    Live Aid is out of control. Can't we just send the raiders some green stamps or something.

    Between Moss, Owens, and Sapp, how can the Raiders afford to have anyone else on the team?

    True, especially since Owens wants a new contract.

    NO MORE REALITY TV!

    Unless of course it is a reality show that involves me and Mariah Carey in a pornographic environment on the Spice Network.

    I was listening to Mike and Mike (don't know who's filling in) and they talked with Sal Paolantonio who said he called Porter's agent who hadn't heard about it, and the agent called up his own sources and then told Sal it wasn't true. Of course he said if it was real, the Eagles do it because Owen's has already had his "last straw" moment and everybody from McNabb up to ownership want him gone. Porter is 5 years younger, cheaper, and not a pain in the ass at all. But then he said there is probably no team that is both willing to trade for him and has the money to pay him what he wants.
