Being a HUGE Broncos fan and someone who keeps up with the team in the offseason I'm going to tell you right now this deal will NEVER happen.
First of all, the Broncos don't want Moss. They don't want to pay him and they don't want someone who has questionable character on their team. The Broncos are very concerned with the image and attitude of the locker room and will not do anything to damage it. When they flirted with TO last summer it was the team that said they did not want to take the risk and have someone be a prima donna and a distraction to the team.
The Broncos are set at WR. They have Javon Walker who is back to his star pro bowl form. Brandon Marshall who is coming into his own and has great chemistry with Cutler. Rod Smith is the team captain and the team's heart, he gives more effort and passion to the game than anyone else and will produce even if he is getting a little older. So what would that make Randy the Broncos' 4th reciever? Plus they also still have Darrius Watts and other recivers on their team. Its not going to happen.
Finally, the Broncos are not even remotely close to friendly with he Raiders. Al Davis and Mike Shanahan absolutely despise eachother. I can't recall any trade ever happening with the Raiders and its doubtful it will ever happen.
I'm not saying the Broncos couldn't find use for Randy and they do want to get something in return for Plummer. If some fantastic offer came through I'm sure the Broncos would give Randy a go but with the relationshiop between the Broncos and Raiders I really don't see any senario that the Raiders are going to be willing to pony up some sweet deal to the Broncos.
End of story.

That is a lopsided trade. On his worst day Moss is better than Plummer. The Raiders kinda get jacked in this trade because Plummer is not young and they still wont have there QB of the future. Plus you never know what Jake Plummer youre gonna get. Denver on the other hand may not always know whether Moss is gonna show up to play but they have a pretty good running game and an insurance policy in Javon Walker.

I think both teams will be trading one bad player for another, cuz Moss is just so lazy and worthless these days, he runs routes and half-speed when he feels like it, and it hardly seems like he's trying to be the great WR he was before with the Vikings. Denver doesn't need a guy like Moss demoralizing their young QB. Moss isn't going to help Cutler out at all. If plummer's still got something left in him, than the Raiders could get some worth out of him and his ability to throw on the run. But he's not going to be the answer to their problems. I say if this trade goes through it's not going to have any positive significance to either team.

No they wont make that trade. If they trade Moss it would be to a team not in the Division. Plummer is washed up. The raiders could do better by trading Moss or Porter to Houston for David Carr. Cut A. Brooks and draft a QB to bring along for the future. They can get a receiver either in the draft round 2-4 or free agent. The Raiders could help themselves if the sign Jamal Lewis. He is expected to be cut.

I just don't know what to make of Moss. For his first 6 years he was the most talented WR I have ever watched. Period. Bar none. He had the most amazing blend of size and speed I've ever seen in a reciever....he could leap,...his hands were good...he was just awe inspiring.
I don't know if what's happeming with him now is mental, or injuries, or what....but I'm not sure i'd want him.
He was given every chance for two season in oakland to thrive....and he didn't just look bad....he looked HORRENDOUS.
He just wasn't getting separation....he was jammed at the line...sometimes one on one.
There has to be some serious injury that people don't know about.
This guy just doesn't look like the same player.
Plummer....in my opinion....is worthless. He's too much of a head case to be a mentor....and he doesn't have enough time left for a developing team like the raiders. If the raiders are going to suck...and rebuild...they can get a younger palookah then Plummer to take lumps while they groom a replacement.

No way. Randy Moss pretty much sucks and the Broncos already have a decent WR set. They won't need another WR. The Raiders will probably take JaMarcus Russell in the draft anyway, so there is no point in taking Plummer. Plummer isn' that great either. He would die behind that O-line; at least Russell is more mobile.

It's a stupid decision. They could get something better than that for him. Even a first round pick would be better. They are in good position to get a qb in the draft and Randy Moss is worth more than Jake Plummer.

Jake Plummer has been rumored to go to the Texans, who will be making a big mistake, in my opinion. David Carr hasn't been a Pro Bowler, but he's had a horrible offensive line his whole career, and still has been surprisingly durable. Raiders and Broncos rarely trade with each other. Intradivision trades are very dangerous, as you can be burned twice a year by your old player...

I think Randy Moss will be traded, but not for Jake Plummer. Unless a couple draft picks are thrown in there as well, cuz Plummer is washed up.
