Still got Javon Walker in Oakland, but outside him & Higgins there's nothing. That's why they'll be looking to take Crabtree in round 1.

There's also rumours they may move for Torry Holt as well.

You're not wrong.

Apparently Adam Shefter (sp) has moved from NFL network to ESPN.

I thought he was but when i looked him up on wikipedia it says he is a free agent again which is strange http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javon_Walker

I like adam schefter aswell i think he is one of the best reporters i have ever seen and he seems to get to know a lot of the players personally which i think helps

Oakland won't get Crabtree. He'll be gone.

Al Davies will take Derrius Heryward-Bay, or less likely Jeremy Maclin at their pick.

I always had this compunction to want to punch him inthe face for some reason. That was it - he looks smug.

I reckon Crabtree could be there still if Seattle go for a QB or OT. I can't see him going to the Bengals really. And I think Maclin is more likely than Heyward-Bey, unless the Raiders trade down if a QB is on the board still in order to get some more picks.

Jason Peters has gone to Philadelphia, for a 1st & 4th this year, and an undisclosed pick next year, they're already working out a new contract apparantly.

Nah Crabtree will be gone. Assuming that Cleveland will trade Edwards then they would take Crabtree. Seattle possibly but they are more likely OT. Could also be a potentially trade up.

I'd say DHB is more likely because he is A) taller and B) faster. Al Davies loves 40 times and for that reason i'd back DHB. Frankly if i was Oakland i wouldn't be taking any reciever at all until 2nd round.

Not really sure on that trade by Philly. Peters is over-rated and i think they overpaid for him anyway. They could have got an equally as good player in that position in the draft by staying at 21 and 28.

I don't think we're as deep as everybody thinks, we need help at safety and at cornerback which I'm sure will be addressed in the draft.

Fantasy soon Conroy?
