They probably will have #2 and nedds either a Linebacker or wide reciver, but who?

The Raiders could use and probably will draft Calvin Johnson out of GT. He's a good fit for the vertical passing game, he's incredibly talented, and the Raiders will be glad to have a receiver who's not a headcase. Brady Quinn is also tempting at that spot, depending on what the teams drafting ahead of them do.

There are too many needs on this team (Linebacker is NOT one of them). I think they should trade down and pick up some offensive linemen, WRs because the raiders will most likely get rid of porter and moss in the off-season, a TE that won't drop balls, and a true fullback in the mid to late rounds. I think Art Shell needs to be fired too; Andrew Walter threw his former offensive coordinator Tom Walsh under the bus, but everything he said was exactly true...AND shell confirmed this by demoting Walsh to TE's coach two weeks later. Shell then benched Walter in favor of aaron bleeping brooks... Walter was drafted last season to be the QB of the future, the least shell could do is play him in garbage time (which was every game after their 7th loss) so he never should have been benched.

They need a quarterback first and foremost. They had oppurtunities to pick up decent qb's who had expreience, and who have proved themselves in the league. Instead they picked up Troy Walters? and Aaron Brooks? What a joke those guys couldnt lead a high school team let alone an NFL offense. QBs and then they need to look at the D because their defense is getting old.

I'm sure they will find another worthless offensive lineman(ala Robert Gallery) to draft. They have a lot more pressing needs than Lb or Wr.

They need a good olineman doesn't matter how good your QB or recievers are if they have no blocking
but I don't think a rookie lineman will solve thier problems they should get a few from free agency or trades
then they should drapt a QB

draft quinn and try and pick up lineman in the offseason. i would have traded porter and moss for some good early draft picks or young recievers. their defense is ranked 1st in passing and 3rd overall based on stats so its the offense causing them to lose.

Their defense is good and they have talented players on offense. Their whole problem is their line. They need quality lineman. If they don't get them through free agency than they should draft lineman. If they do get lineman through trades than Troy Smith should be their choice.

They need a Quarterback, and a leader.
Troy Smith, Brady Quinn; without a consistant passing game, they are toast in their division.
Charger Nation Rules!
