They are trying to make up for the disastrous trade for Herschel Walker that helped build the Cowboys all those years ago. They want the same thing in reverse.
But its negotiation - they will ask high and settle for what they can get.
I think they are smart to trade him though while he still has value, because that team has been seemingly build around accomodating Moss for a long time and that is no way to run a team, catering to a star. Sometimes you are smart to overlook odd behavior in a player if it doesn't harm the team. It's one thing to have players who behave eccentrically like John Riggins did, but you don't structure your team around appeasing them, which Gibbs would never do.
It's not Moss' fault that the Vikings catered and appeased him. That was what the Vikings coaches and management chose to do, creating Moss rules and rules for everyone else - and that destroys the fabric of team unity and with it the chance for real success.
Maybe Moss would fit in with the Raiders somehow.
