Doesn't Anyone Think the Raiders Will Take Brady Quinn?

It's extraordinary how quickly Brady Quinn has fallen down draft boards. It was only two months ago that nearly everyone said Quinn would be the first overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft. Now I'm scouring mock drafts around the web and I can't even find one that has the Raiders taking Quinn first overall.

We've heard that he's a fraud, that the Dolphins like his chances of being around when they pick ninth, that the Browns think Charlie Frye and Derek Anderson are good enough that they don't need Quinn, and that the notion that the Eagles would trade Donovan McNabb for an opportunity to draft Quinn is laughable.

So does anyone think the Raiders will take Quinn first overall? It doesn't appear that way. But I wouldn't rule out seeing him go No. 2. Detroit Lions president Matt Millen loves nothing more than to make a splash with a big-name player on draft day. Quinn might not be slipping as far as everyone seems to think.
