Should the Raiders trade for Bears OLB Briggs? - Inside the Oakland Raiders - A look inside the world of the highly classified Oakland Raiders from the writers of Bay Area News Group

YES! Al what are U waiting for....sent them Bush, DHB,Grove..

Our first-round pick for a 31-yr-old (in Nov) LB whose production fell substantially last year?

He went from 118 total tackles and 2.5 sacks in 2009 to 89 and 2 sacks last year, starting the same number of games. Last year was his first season since he was a rook that he was below triple digits in tackles.

Strange time for him to be getting all up in the Bears' grill about wanting more money.

After much deliberation with the other voices in my head, I would counsel Al against this one.

They don't need Bush, they have Forte who's a machine and they picked up Marion Barber to back him up. And nobody wants Clank or Groves.

No, they'd want our first rounder or someone serious like maybe Routt or Kelly.

Fuck this trade, we have 3 solid LBs.
