Ben Roethlisberger Trade
A Ben Roethlisberger trade could happen at any moment according to reports.

Is a Ben Roethlisberger trade imminent?

With NFL Draft Day 2010 tomorrow, it appears that may be the case.

Just hours after Roethlisberger's six-game suspension, the Pittsburgh Steelers are already shopping Roethlisberger's services. They're apparently seeking a top-10 draft pick in return, per various reports.

The best fit may be the Oakland Raiders, per NFL FanHouse, which notes, "the Oakland Raiders do have a top-10 pick. And really, there's no better fit for Roethlisberger, if the Steelers are absolutely determined to move him."

The Buffalo Bills and St. Louis Rams have already said they're not interested, according to reports.

ESPN's Adam Schefter tweeted that the Steelers have reached out to the Rams, Bills, 49ers, Raiders, Jaguars, Seahawks and Browns about Roethlisberger.

Check back later for updates.

We could use him here in Atlanta seeing that Matt Ryan is not a first string quarterback.

He is a perfect pick for the Raiders. They specialize in rejects.
