    Adam_Schefter Done it before and doing it again: With trade deadline Tuesday, Raiders have informed teams they're willing to trade any player on roster.

    Huge contract but still in his prime and best or second best corner in the game. He would provide leadership and a mentor for KJax and Glover for the future. This would instantly make their defense average to above average to go with a good to great offense. Character is not an issue with this guy and always plays hard.

    No excuses for McNair/Smith/Kubiak not to make a play for this guy and give up draft picks and maybe JJ to make it happen.

    They would probably rape us of draft picks but he would look amazing in a Texans uniform.

    I would love to see him go to the Texans.


    But I seriously doubt he'll be traded.

    Every player is always available (Peyton Manning notwithstanding). It's just a matter of what you're willing to give up and what they're willing to take. Davis would gladly take Andre Johnson, I'm sure.
    Not happening. Unfortunately, the Texans just don't have things they're willing to give/the Raiders are willing to take.

    Look at it this way, we're pretty much trading away the future's Kareem Jackson and Amobi Okoye's for a sure-thing, 1A/B CB in the NFL.

    We'd pretty much have to give up AJ.

    Won't happend. No way ANY team pays that salary PLUS good draft picks. Those type of trades rarely happend in the NFL. And when they do, they usually are terrible for the team giving the draft picks plus paying a ton of money. See the Cowboys trades for Joey Galloway and Roy Williams.

    Or you can look it like your trading the future Brian Cushing and Duane Brown for a cornerback who is making $16 million dollars per year. I also like the fact you are pretty much calling Kareem Jackson a bust after 5 games. By the way, Nnamdi Asomugha only started one game his rookie season and he was considered so "slow" they moved him to safety.

    Duane brown and cushing are alright or at least with roids. I would take Nnamdi over both those guys.

    Texans should be all over this and do whatever it takes to get this guy. Send a 1st rounder this year and a 2nd rounder next year. The guy is the best at his position in the NFL.

    He is the best cornerback in the NFL, he is well worth it

    We are going to spend our next two first rounders on defensive anyways, probably secondary, so why not send them to the Raiders for Nnamdi and avoid another epic fail like KJ.
