Note: DARREN HOWARD THREAD

The Raiders are so hurting to free up additional cap space that they've already had quarterback Kerry Collins restructure his contract twice! Collins understandably is not taking any more calls from the Raiders.

Oakland is still desperate to unload cornerback Charles Woodson, who's due to make more than $10 million this season, and, sources tell The Post, the club is willing to take less than the two No. 1 picks required to sign a franchise player.

"At this point, we'd probably take a one and a five or a seven," one front-office member said. "We're hoping to get something done before camp."

IF n.o. could come to a workable contract with him it seems workable. that is a big IF though. howard has expressed his preference for dallas too and would demand a little more from big al. woodson's mo as a trouble making prima donna is a solid negative too. with what they are saying as woodson value then players straight across with oakland giving a 2nd would seem like a decent exchange.
how bout a howard destination discussion- first lay out all the likely destinations then vote on the likelihood.
