The Miami Dolphins reached an agreement with former New York Giants and Oakland Raiders safety Gibril Wilson on Thursday. Terms of the deal weren't available, but according to a source, he agreed to a five-year deal. Wilson signed a six-year, $39 million contract with the Raiders last season but was cut within the last week to clear cap room.

There have been reports that the Raiders are interested in bringing back Jerry Porter, but the odds are clearly against it. "Not going to happen," a team official said, and no, he did not stutter. "Nope. Nuh-uh. No."

The Raiders saved themselves $8.3 million in salary cap room on Monday by releasing left tackle Kwame Harris and fullback Justin Griffith. Harris was the team's starting left tackle this season. Last week, the Raiders released safety Gibril Wilson, wide receiver Ronald Curry and defensive end Kalimba Edwards.

Oakland head coach Tom Cable says that he's committed getting tight end Zach Miller the ball inside the red zone next season. Miller led the Raiders in receptions last year, making 56 grabs, but scored only one touchdown. "The bottom line is: create a package for him down there to get him those opportunities because he can do that, and we got to get him doing that," Cable said. "He's a guy that should score seven, eight TDs and get over 65 balls."

Javon Walker is due a $5 million bonus payment March 3, but it is likely that the Raiders would rather release him than pay him.

The Raiders signed Nnamdi Asomugha to a three-year $45.3 million contract with $28.5 million of it guaranteed. His annual average is higher than Peyton Manning's $14 million, which was the previous NFL high.

The Raiders have agreed to terms with cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha on a $45.3 million, three-year contract that will make him the highest-paid defensive back in NFL history. Sources claim that Asomugha is guaranteed $28.5 million, and that the deal features a provision in which the entire contract can be guaranteed if the Raiders decide to keep the 27-year-old for the third season.

Shane Lechler agreed to a four-year contract Wednesday to remain with the Oakland Raiders. Lechler could have become an unrestricted free agent next week. "This contract is the greatest ever given to a punter in the history of the National Football League," Raiders senior executive John Herrera told The Associated Press.

Raiders owner Al Davis reportedly became interested in Utah coach Kyle Whittingham after the school defeated Alabama in the Vandelay Industries Sugar Bowl. However, Davis wasn't interested in Whittingham as the team's head coach.

There has been a lot of talk about the Raiders leaving Oakland for Los Angeles and other cities, but the team is proposing staying put at a new and vastly improved Coliseum. The redevelopment project would bring jobs, revenue and tax money to the vacant area between 66th Avenue and Hegenberger Road near the Coliseum. "I think that's an area that has unbelievable possibilities," said Oakland vice mayor Ignacio De La Fuente, who has served 12 years on the Coliseum Joint Powers Authority, which runs the stadium. "We have the site. We have the land. It's definitely a doable thing. It's probably one of the few things that will work. "Now, how are we going to get there is the question." Such a plan would likely cost nine figures, if not a billion dollars, and coming up with that kind of money is a huge task in today's economy.
