According to Vittorio Tafur of the San Francisco Chronicle, free agent cornerback Tracy Porter will be visiting the Oakland Raiders within the next couple of days.

The Raiders are looking to add some solid cornerbacks to their roster after being forced to release both of their starters from a year ago, due to salary cap problems. Porter had 52 tackles, 2 forced fumbles and 1 interception in 2011.
