Quinn to Raiders?

[Ickybaluky]

From PFT:

There are rumors right now in media circles that the Raiders are closing in on a deal with (drum roll, please) Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn, who would then be named the No. 1 overall pick in the draft.

Adam Schefter of NFL Network tipped us off to the rumor. Mark Maske of the Washington Post acknowledges the rumor in a Friday afternoon chat, but he says he's not reporting that the deal is done.

We heard earlier in the week that the Raiders had made an initial offer to Quinn. We have since heard that, while hard numbers were not presented to Quinn's agent, Tom Condon, there was enough discussion about parameters and terms to give him a sufficient idea as to the ballpark amount of the deal.

Re: Quinn to Raiders?

LOL if the Raiders draft quinn that will be the best news i have heard all week. Cleveland would take Russell, Detriot would trade down with Atlanta to take Willis, Atlanta would take Calvin Johnson. Minnisota would take Laundry that would leave us with Peterson. Buffalo should be rooting for this.

Re: Quinn to Raiders?

Rumor is;
Kiffen loves Quinn
Davis like CJ
Scouting likes Russell

appears Kiffen won out

Re: Quinn to Raiders?

It probably helps that a pre-draft deal is in place. Russell might have held out for the duration of training camp.

Re: Quinn to Raiders?

Doubt it happens but I do like their mock that has us grabbing AP.

ESPN's Ed Werder reports there is a chance the Oakland Raiders work out a trade with the Cleveland Browns during the first round of the NFL Draft. There is speculation the Browns could send WR Braylon Edwards to the Raiders in addition to the No. 3 pick overall for the first-overall selection.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Trade the first pick, they get Braylon Edwards.. and then they draft quinn third after Russell goes #1 and CJ #2

WOW what a deal for Oakland that would be.. Clev wants Russell THAT bad?

Totally agree. Quinn going #1 would make it even less likely for Peterson to go to Cleveland.

Re: Quinn to Raiders?

All these rumors are making my head spin. Can't remember the last time a draft was this unpredictable. It seems like every team is zeroing on every player. Next they're going to tell me the Pats are going to trade up to #1 to grab CJ.
