News, observations and reader questions about the Oakland Raiders

Early free agency musings

*According to Foxsports.com, WR Jerry Porter is set to join the Jacksonville Jaguars. I figured Porter would jump to a playoff team that needed a receiver. Such a move makes sense.

*Fox Sports is also reporting DE Tyler Brayton will visit Carolina. Don’t shed tears all at once, Raider fans, over possibly losing Brayton, who provided us all with this highlight in 2006.

*Chicago free agent WR Bernard Berrian is set to visit the Vikings according to several reports. If the Raiders can’t land him, they could look at Arizona free agent WR Bryant Johnson. If they simply want speed, there’s New Orleans’ Devery Henderson. The Vikings are said to be interested in Bengals DE Justin Smith, too.

*The Raiders are still interested in re-signing Josh McCown, but he might visit a few teams first.

*Would the Raiders really sign OT Kwame Harris? If so, why?!?! Many Niner fans believe he is their version of Robert Gallery. My guess is he’s a good athlete and might allow the team to play Paul McQuistan at guard.
