Why Michael Vick Will Be a Raider In 07

- Today, Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson declared for the 07 draft.

- Mel Kiper Jr. ranks Johnson as the top player in the draft.

- Georgia Tech is in Atlanta.

- The Raiders have the #1 pick in the draft.

- The Raiders desperately need a quarterback.

- The Raiders desperately need a new face for the franchise.

- The Raiders are currently saddled with a keymaster (Randy Moss), with no gatekeeper (any competent quarterback).

- The Falcons have had it with Vick.

- The Falcons have a viable alternative at QB in Matt Schaub.

- The Falcons WR unit is probably the worst in the league and is in dire need of an upgrade.

- If Vick goes, they will need someone to put asses in seats, because Falcons fans are fickle. Local hero Calvin Johnson could do that.

- Ergo, the Raiders will trade the #1 pick in the draft to Atlanta for Michael Vick, and Atlanta will select Calvin Johnson with that pick.

You heard it here first I am pretty sure.
