Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss

[aceinthehouse]

I almost hope there's no draft next season...

Is that a possibility,if there's a lockout?
Anyone know?

The Patriots would really be bent over and given the train,if this were the case.

Just picked up Brandon Tate in my fantasy and dropped Louis Murphy.

Not to mention that 1st round Oakland pick will most likely be very high
and that Carolina pick in the 2nd round will be very high as well.

Crazy!

They sure have lots of picks to give up for Vincent Jackson if needed.

Hmmm. Yes they do. That would'nt surprise me one bit if it happened.

I wonder if they need an ASS KICKIN' D lineman???

Here is some food for thought. Maybe NE has been having the same issues with Moss as we have with AH; yet theirs is keep much more internal. Interesting. Thus keeping his trade value somewhat high or at least existent.

Well we all know how he popped off to the media after week 1, and he reportedly was a locker room issue the other night after not catching any balls.

You mean a "Head" Kickin defensive lineman, right?

imo the diference is Moss is in his final year of K with the pats while AH just got done his 1st year of a 7 year K with the skins.

Moss wanted security of a new deal and didnt want to play out his final year with no extension and potentially get injured.

AH wants? most think to play for a 4-3 team. i think a new contract. any team that would trade for AH would have to sign him to a new K. im not sure if this is the skins creation b/c they are demanding either AH or the new team pay the skins back a portion of the 21 mil. I think the skins should drop their demand for money back in the offer and see if they can just get a 2nd rounder with no money back. no teams wants to give up a 2nd rounder and have to sign AH to a new K, especially a K that would have to reimburse AH for the money he paid back to the skins.

i think he thought he could get 32 mil for 13 months then pout and get traded and get a new K that would pay him his FMV for future years instead of playing out his K with the skins which pays him a kings ransom up front but then pays him slightly below FMV for the remaining years of his K.

Just listened to T. Bruschi talk about it. He said that he thought Moss was becoming a problem in the locker room. Espn reported that he had an argument at half of the monday night game w/the qb coach, who calls the plays. Bruschi said he was back to being the same guy he was in Oakland & late in his yrs. at minn.

NE does not have the strong veterans in their locker room anymore like Bruschi, Seau or Seymour that kept Moss quiet. Moss ain't afraid to run his mouth in NE so they shipped him out for a good draft pick.
This was a good deal for both teams.
Although if Welker goes down, NE is ****ed.
