Is McCown on the way?

The Detroit Lions selection of quarterback Drew Stanton could pave the way for a rumored trade.

Lions backup Josh McCown wants out out Detroit and the Raiders could use a veteran quarterback while JaMarcus Russell learns how to play quarterback in the NFL.

The trade has been talked about for a while. With the Raiders having a couple of extra draft picks this year and the Lions knowing they have another young quarterback, it could make a deal easier to facilitate.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a deal done sometime soon. If not, Tim Rattay could become a stopgap to Russell.
