John Clayton reported on ESPN that Trent Green is rumored to be traded & the Raiders & Dolphins are both interested. Should the Dolphins lose out on Green, Clayton suggested that they may trade up from #9 to snag Quinn. The Raiders are a true wild card as there are many a scenario that they are said to be mulling. Will they take Calvin Johnson, JaMarcus Russell or trade down? I'll be glad when the draft is over so all the speculating can end. I'm sick of all the so-called experts badmouthing Quinn w/o fair balance.

With Al Davis in the mix, it's even more impossible to predict. He is the worst combination: crazy, stupid, and lots of power.

What an effen tool. I wish he stayed in Oakland the first time. You never saw a worse group of fans, than Raider fans in L.A. It looked like a mass of extras from 'The Shield".

That isnt really what he said. He said if the Dolphins get Green before the draft then they will try to trade Culpepper to Oakland allowing them to take CJ instead of Russell. Green has said he'll only accept a trade to Miami and told Cleveland last week he wasnt interested. He has a deal in place w/ Miami and just needs the two teams to agree on compensation. Similar to what happened w/ Miami and the Lions last year over Joey Harrington. Oakland hasnt talked to the Chiefs about Green, and I doubt the Chiefs would trade him within in the division if they called.

Also, the Dolphins getting Green isnt going to keep them from trying to get Quinn. Green is a short term option, Quinn long term. Green knows the offense already and could teach Quinn and be a pretty decent stop gap until Quinn is ready to take over the job full time.

Anything to keep BQ out of Oakland is a good thing. I kinda like the sound of him as a dolphin, better than a raider or a lion...

Couldn't have put it better myself. There is no way that KC will trade Trent to a divisional foe. Nuff said.

You can dream all you like. I'm sure it's a very nice dream. Seeing Bradys all decked out in purple and gold. A very nice image. I'm totally fine with it. However, Mr. T has one thing to say:

Brad Childress is too much of an ego case to admit that he was wrong about Tarvaris Jackson. I don't see them taking Quinn even if he is available at that pick, which I don't think he will be.

I am praying that Brady goes to Cleveland.
