It’s been 20 years since the Raiders made a huge splash trading for future Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Randy Moss from the Minnesota Vikings.
I vividly remember when this blockbuster happened. It was March 2, 2005 and I was in Indianapolis covering the NFL combine. It was a big deal for me, work-wise. It was my first offseason as a Denver Broncos beat writer after covering the Vikings for the past four years.
So, with my sources in Minnesota and a superstar coming to the AFC West, it was a big story for me to cover.
