Another team that has yet to be mentioned that I think may consider the idea would be the Saints.
Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed.

I'd puke if he came to the Pats. That's not happening

I could see the Broncos, Titans or Raiders snagging him up.

Good luck w/that lol

If Dallas believes that this will solve their problems then they are just plain naive. There are a lot of other things wrong with that team and they will realize that next season because they won't have TO to blame everything on.

I think a lot of teams will be interested in TO's services, not just Oakland. I think if he takes a pay cut most teams would take a chance on him and just add some good behaviour clauses to his contract. I think people buy too much into the ESPN crap about him being a cancer because for TO standards he really hasn't done as bad as he is made out to be the last few seasons.

I can see a team with a good veteran core snapping him up. I'd love to see him reunite with Mcnabb just so a lot of people in the media would shut up.

obviously he wants to go somewhere where he can win a superbowl very soon, but i don't know if any teams in superbowl contention want to risk their chemistry. Im thinking he goes to a start-up team like an Oakland

F**k it, I'll say it.

Come to Cincinnati, Terrell. You'd be the No. 1 WR the moment you stepped in the door. The owner is the most whipped man in the league and his loyalty is unquestioned. The head coach won't like the situation one bit, but he has no say and you're so talented. You could push elementary-school kids off of playground structures in your spare time and the fans won't care because no one listens to them, anyway. Teams would need six DBs on every play just to figure out who to cover. And, best of all, Cincy wouldn't have to call a running play ever again.

No, it doesn't.

It goes against everything the Titans have been doing in free agency the past 3 seasons.

He could just as well retire even though he has plenty of gas left in the tank...the majority of draftees that came in with him are now out of the NFL and he's 36 years old ( a geezer by NFL standards)...think of the guys that came out of the 1996 draft ....

Keyshawn Johnson
Simeon Rice
Eddie George
Marvin Harrison
Eric Moulds
Ray Lewis
Amani Toomer
Lawyer Milloy
The Moose
Brian Dawkins

most of these guys are well over the hill (or retired) when it comes to their on field career.

Oakland signs TO and still drafts Crabtree?

That could be interesting.

TO could probably play at a high level for another 3-4 years. There aren't many players if any who are in better shape than TO.

I could care less that T.O was released. He was nothing but a problem causer and her couldnt catch the ball in big key situaions. He had 33 drops last year, common now!

Bills are looking at TO and are expected to make him a one year offer.

He accepted the offer.

Lee Evans and TO on the same side of the field. That's a little scary.
