I'm thinking that Ben ends up a Raider. The Raiders were trying to get McNabb before he went to Washington, and they don't have a real starter. Plus, they have a history of adopting the league's troubled players LOL. All the Steelers really want out of trading Ben is to move up in the draft (they currently have 18th pick) and the Raiders have the 7th pick, I believe. They won't trade him to the Browns because they are a rival, and the only other likely candidate with a higher draft pick & no real starter at QB is Buffalo, but Buffalo probably won't want to deal with the baggage (like Oakland will, and has frequently in the past)...
