Damn. If that offer is actually put on the table, and the Falcons don't jump on that, I don't think I could ever respect the organization again.
Not only do you get two quality receivers, but you get the #1 pick, and get rid of a QB who hasn't delivered on the potential you've been waiting for. People are already saying that Schaub could be traded for a first round pick, so could either make him the starter, or trade him and draft a high profile QB in the draft.
I say that that the Falcons make the trade (if it is offered), immedietly trade Moss for really any decent defensive player (to get rid of that headache), make Schaub the starter, and draft Calvin Johnson. So many possibilities.

Having heard nothing more about this rumor if anything is going to happen I would expect it in the next week or two. Now they just need to focus on getting some identity for that offense. The Defense last year didn't look at all bad, if it hadn't been for a really weird call in the Chargers game they would have won, in fact, they almost beat the Chargers, Broncos and the Chiefs, their 3 Division rivals.
As for Vick, if he comes to Oakland, he's really going to need to control his temper. I don't live anywhere near Oakland, however, I do live near San Diego and having gone to the Oak/SD game a few times I can tell you there's a few of those fans who just go looking to get a piece of someone.
Example, a few years ago I went to that game, Tomlinson busted free for a nice run, I stood up yelling "YEAH!" and for my efforts the 4 guys dressed in silver and black decided to empty thier beers onto my head. This soon broke out into a brawl as the guy next to me didn't think that was cool and swung.
Granted most of their fans aren't like this, but a lot are, and if Vick comes to Oak he might want to leave the birds at home 
Oh and on a last note, no idea if people have seen this or not, it's a commercial that airs here during Raider week.

Has Vick answered the question that even though he didn't have weed, why was he carrying around a water bottle with a secret compartment?

I agree with all of your post except for the drafting of Johnson. Why use the #1 overall to take a WR when you already have White, Jenkins, Lelie, and now Porter?
