Possible Trades; Raiders Look To Take On Chargers

As the trade deadline gets closer and closer, the Raiders have the lines off the hook and are probably in contact with teams. The Raiders currently have four Quarterback's, and since Josh McCown is close to healed, one QB will be gone via trade.
Andrew Walter, who has some experience as he started most of the Raiders games last year, will probably be traded if not McCown. It's all up to Lane Kiffin right now, who has to figure out one thing which will solve the QB sitaution: Who is the Starter? If Culpepper is now the starter, and him and McCown both having one-year deals, could McCown be the odd man out? McCown could provide depth at QB for another team, and is more attractive than Walter at the moment.
However, Walter, C-Pep, and McCown both are in their last year of their contract. So, one of them may get re-signed after the season, or the Raiders could look for another Vet after the season is over to mentor Russell.
It would be wise of Kiffin to try a package deal here, Fabian Washington, who appears to have been beaten out of his starting role opposite of Asomugha by Stanford Routt, could be traded as well. For example, Kiffin could put Walter/McCown in with Fabian Washington, and try and trade for the talented Deangelo Hall from the Atlanta Falcons, who would welcome a new Qb and CB. Hall has been heard to not like the coach and wants out sooner rather than later, so why not try and get it done? Hall would be a great compliment to the team, but yeah, might not happen, but it just might happen. Walter has lots of talent, and might flourish in Petrino's offense. Either way McCown or Walter looks like a better option than Harrington or Leftwich.
Also, there are some rumors Warren Sapp might be on the block as well, but I doubt the Raiders trade one of the defensive leaders of the team just because he doesn't have a sack yet. I'm sure they will entertain offers if there are any though...
The other possible trade could be...Justin Fargas. Why not? The kid has 179 yards rushing against the fins, so teams are going to look at him as an option (like the Bucs). Why could fargas be traded? Because Michael Bush could be activated next week, and that makes Fargas trade bait since Jordan is the starter, Rhodes will spell him, and then you see Bush get a carry or two. Doesn't make sense if Kiffin keep them all, so look for a possible trade here.

Norv To Face Former Team
Norv, who failed with the Redskins and Raiders as Head Coach, now has possibly saved his job with the win over the Broncos. Now he faces our hungry Raiders who look to show the rest of the NFL they are contenders. This won't be just another game, this will be a HUGE game (worthy of being moved to Sunday Night). It should be somehwhat emotional too. Norv is going to want to beat the Raiders (or Al Davis rather) for showing him the door after two failed seasons at the helm. Lane Kiffin will have to shut down LT, who threw and ran for a touchdown last year in San Diego when the Raiders got screwed with the BS fumble call. Anyways, Kiffin needs Rob Ryan to help him out big in this one. Derrick Burgess is goin to have to have a big game and fire up the defense and get to the quarterback consistently.
The Raiders hope to have Jordan back, if not there will be a series of Dominic Rhodes and Justin Fargas, which might not be as productive if they don't have a punisher (Jordan). Culpepper will get his second start, and will try to make some plays against the Chargers defense who will probably blitz. Expect to see a lot of passes to Rhodes and/or Jordan, who should be a big part of this game. I think this will be the game where the Raiders tight ends finally get REALLY involved in. The game should be close, and who ever wins this game can call themselves the best of the AFC West, at least for now.
