Might be some truth to the rumor. Darren Howard for? Oh boy!

Taken from another board:

California's biggest sports talk guy, Lee Hacksaw Hamilton reported as his #1 story a "major rumor out of Oakland" claiming the Raiders are trying to trade for Howard and have offered Phillip Buchanon straight up. Hacksaw's been pretty accurate (100% by my count) on "rumors coming out of Oakland", so I would tend to give this one a little more credence than any of the Internet rumors.

In my opinion, I don't see how the Raiders have the cap room to deal a guy in his rookie contract for Howard who's carrying a $7M+ cap number... but if Hacksaw's now behind this, this rumor might finally have some bite to it.

If anybody wants to listen to the streaming broadcast, here's the feed:
