The money will be there when he trades Michael Huff on draft day. He has been looking for a Lester Hayes, Mike Haynes combo for decades and now he can finally get it. Keep an eye on Jason Taylor and Julius Peppers. This will give Al bookends at the DE and CB spots. Then he can go after McFadden in the draft. Al will get a deal done with Nnamdi.

Every few years the "Uncapped Threat Rears Itself" yet never happens, so I could see Nnamdi trying to max his value and not fall into the one year trap of possible injury or appeared down year (i.e. Lance Briggs). The flip side is he could follow Asante Samuel's example and include a tag restriction the following year and get the max payday he's seeking...

Woodson was hurt a lot and would not practice much, he was also beat a lot or was flagged for interference. I do not think the Raiders even considered paying Woodson what he wanted. Asoumgha on the other hand I believe the Raiders will sign to a long term deal long before he ever becomes a Free Agent. Poor old crazy Al, yes crazy like a fox. People tend to forget that the Raiders have played in 5 Super Bowls and were a play away from playing in another 5 Super Bowls. That is 10 Super Bowls that the Raiders have been a part of or knocked on the door of. That is almost 25% of all the Super Bowls played. When you add the fact that the Raiders have played in more Conference Championship games then all but 1 team in the entire NFL and more then any other AFC team that says a lot. Add the fact that the NFL Hall of Fame almost has it's own wing for the Raiders and the one constant through it all is Al Davis. So they had a rough 5 years Davis track record says he brings them back. The Raiders are not bringing in Hall to replace Asoumgha but to pair the two up together.

If the Raiders are somehow stupid enough (not a big stretch lately) to let Asomugha get to the open market, I could surely see a team like the Packers, with 35 million in cap space once Favre's retirement papers are filed, opening the vault BIG TIME for him.

The Raiders are one of the few teams in the NFL that play a lot of man bump and run coverage that the packers employ. Plus the Packers need a third corner and Woodson and Harris are not getting younger. I think the packers might be interested and they have a lot of money left under the cap.

They'll have $34 mil in cap space once Favre officially files his retirement papers. While they'll have three starting caliber CBs, I'm SURE they can find a way to get all three on the field as much as possible. This also allows them to be more flexible in the draft by not having to focus on a CB to play nickel. If the Raiders take off the tag, I think the Packers should try and swoop in and pick him up.
