Rumor: Owens to Raiders for Porter (x-post from OOT)
ABC sports reported the sides are talking. link
This would be awesome on paper for the Raiders, but Moss did say on ESPN about 3 weeks ago that Owens is not even in the same league as him. Could they co-exist? As a Raider's fan though, this is certainly intriguing.

As I said in the original, misplaced thread:
Are they going to change their name to The Trainwreck as well?

Re: Rumor: Owens to Raiders for Porter (x-post from OOT)
Given Porter's reasonable contract, the possibility of Owens sitting out, and the likelihood that Owens is cut after this season make it seem not so stupid to me. Sure, it's a significant talent dropoff, but they're not gonna get equal value.
Anyone know the exact cap ramifications? Would the Eagles be responsible for Porter's signing bonus?

I guess the reason I am surprised is that I am not high on Porter at all. He has never really performed up to expectations. There is no way that he can come even remotely close to doing for the Eagles what Owens did.

[/ QUOTE ] Porter's entire seven year contract would be accelerated -- not the salary itself, but all the bonuses. The Eagles would be able to pay about three other players.
