Another team who might make a run at him is the Jets.
Holmes and Edwards are both FAs and probably looking for a big payday. They likely will lose one of them.
I would rather have Holmes. Just think, Holmes #1, Armstrong #2, and Santana in the slot. Of course, this would present a problem for Brian Billick (if he does any of our games), since he already believes Moss' name is Santonio.

I know I am in the minority on this but I really don't care if he comes back. I can live with it if he gets a 1 year deal, but in general I am done with this group of veteran players we have that have never won anything. Santana can still play but I prefer a complete overhaul of this roster.
if he can still play...why not use him to PLAY??? Gettin rid of a guy just for turnover is crazy IF ...U don't have a guy to replace him...we don't...so give him a competitive contract for his age, and bring him back. He has been the MOST productive player we have had in 6yrs. When you find a replacement, then move to another guy(only for guys that produce for you)

The offseason has not even started yet. If we are going on the assumption that we will not be able to add any other WR's to replace him then sure I will sign him also then. I never suggested we would be better off subtracting Moss and not adding any other WR's.

We definitely need him. He and Armstrong are a great #1 and 2. We finally used Moss the way he should be last season and he could still be productive a couple of more years, at least one more for sure.
I hope he comes back with a 1-year deal at least, if not 2.
If he leaves, we'll need to draft a WR, which doesn't work out more times than it does...and it takes away from addressing the O-line, a more pressing issue.
Sorry, at best that is a GREAT #2 and #4. Maybe if Armstrong continues to improve - - he isn't exactly a kid you know so he may be as good as he is ever gonna be - - that tandem might be a great #2 and #3.
If this is your standard of "greatness" for the WR corps, then it is hard to imagine a team being less than "great" at the position unless they lose their top 5 WRs to injury in a single season.

Ha...one of the comments from that "article"...
Good to see our fans aren't the only ones who think of crazy trade scenarios in the offseason!
I'll take Royal for Haynesworth!

Drive killer. He drops too many bug play passes. I know he caught a lot this year, but he killed us too many times. Too worried about running before catching. Thank him, and let's move on. We need to get a big body receiver in to go along with Armstrong, maybe Banks.

hes a great second receiver to have but he should sign somewhere he can win with. though he would be nice to have, by the time were ready to contend he may be 33 or 34 years old.

No i know he has expressed he wanted to be a redskin for the rest of his career. We want him back especially if we get a true number one reciever and we put him the slot. He will flourish even better there. He will turn into a Davone Bess like the miami dolphins.
He's already more of a slot guy than not. He played in the slot pretty extensively last year.
