You won't get my hopes up. I don't want him. Never have, never will like him.

Moss will land where he should have in the first place......Dallas.

And his dream of a SB ring will become a reality. Full circle people.

I watched nfl network from 6-7 and they said moss has no visits they know of with any teams. He is unkown right now what he is doing.

Its kind of funny people think he will come here, there is nothing that points to him coming here or wanting to be here except the journalists who just throw Dallas into every scenario.

MOSS ON THE MARKET
Posted by Mike Florio on February 29, 2008, 7:07 p.m.
Though free agency opened 19 hours ago, receiver Randy Moss is now officially on the market.

Per Adam Schefter of NFL Network and John Clayton of ESPN, Moss isn’t close to a deal with the Patriots, and he is open to entertaining offers from other teams.

The questions now become: (1) who is interested; and (2) how much will they offer?

Our take? Moss wants to know what else is out there before accepting the Pats’ best offer, if for no reason other than to know what he is sacrificing. He’s a guy with a reputation for being selfish and moody; what better way to improve his image than to walk away from a bigger offer and sticking with the Pats?

But the problem is that teams likely have vivid memories of his behavior in Oakland. He was all smiles and “committed to excellence” and “I just wanna win, baby” when the trade from Minnesota went down, but before too long he was a malcontent.

Maybe it wasn’t really his fault. It’s not as if the Raiders are the model professional sports franchise. But it’s a huge gamble to take if Moss expects $25 million or more in guaranteed money.

This one could get very interesting. Especially if the Jets decide to visit the ultimate indignity upon the Pats by trying to swipe the guy who made an above average offense into a pinball machine.

And so concludes a month that has seen the pendulum swing as sharply as it ever has for any NFL team. On January 31, the Patriots were awaiting their coronation. With February 1 came the names Arlen Specter and Matt Walsh. February 2 brought the report that the Pats cheated the Rams out of Super Bowl XXVI. On February 3, 18-0 became 18-1.

Things haven’t gotten much better since then. The only thing we’re sure of is that, in March, things surely can’t get much worse.

Nothing of the sort was said. Schefter said that a lock down deal with New England was not in place. He speculated that Moss will probably seek offers from other teams and take those numbers back to the Patriots. The Cowboys were mentioned (in passing) among the group of teams Schefter speculated would make an offer to, but it was not based on anything he had heard from Dallas. Basically he's throwing **** against the wall to see if something sticks.

Schefter did, however say that prior to the beginning of FA he saw no scenario in which Moss would not be a Patriot. He no longer believes that is true. For the first time he believes there is a slight chance that Moss wold sign with a team other than the Patriots. He did emphasize the unlikeliness of it, though.

The Pats aren't going to finish this off-season losing Gay, Samuel, Gaffney, Stallworth, Seau, Wilson AND Moss. You can bet that at the very least Moss will be retained.

If Jerry gives Moss the "I can take care of the money" speech (the same one he gave to TO).. then the question isnt really does Moss want to be here.... it will be.... Jerry makes it so Moss WANTS to be here.

It would be a crazy world if we signed Moss and traded to get McF.

It would be a dream come true. I do wish we could dispense with all the "that only works on Madden" comments. I have yet to see a good reason why it wouldn't work. Egos? Please. They'd co-exist fine - both are at points in their career where this could work.

People act as though this is a cap issue. Jerry is going to fill that #2 position in the off-season regardless, whether it's a trade for Roy Williams or Larry Fitzgerald, or perhaps signing Javon Walker (albeit cheaper).

I do hope Jerry makes a play for him. Put Moss on this team and the offense is unstoppable. They will literally score at will. Imagine a team with arguably the two best wide receivers in the league.

Not only the two best recievers in the league, two of the best recievers of all time!

Tell me about it. Cant understand those against it.
Have to chalk it up to brain damage.

These players were born to play together.
Thier skills sets could not be more complimentary.
On the field together, each will see less coverage than any time in thier careers.

I believe our offensive effeciency would be off the charts.

Okay, this is what you have to do::

Go to chapter 2 of your hook-on-phonics DVD and rephrase what you said as the topic heading Clayton speculation: Cowboys could be players for Moss *Merge* :lmao:

You have to really study your tapes...:D
