This is a good point. McD could help BB pick a receiver that could successful here.

Good speed but not the physical type of receiver this team needs. The Pats need a player in the Boldin or Roddy White mode that's big, better than average speed, runs good routes and isn't going to get bumped off the line of scrimmage by a more physical corner.

I would take 2012 moss over that jack in the box stiff we have in Lloyd any day

It's not as if Randy just had a break out season and turned Bill's head enough that no suddenly will mean yes.

I love Randy, and would love to see him back (as a 5th WR), but DarrylSingley speaks the reality of the situation. That ship has sailed.

Ah yes, even though the Branch/Givens combo didn't recieve a lot of credit, Givens was a good fit for the team for the very reasons you state above.

I agree with this.

That Keenan Allen kid from Cal is 6'3 but the bad thing is he's being projected to go much earlier in the draft.

So you'd take the guy with inferior production across the board...just because?

Sounds like you really thought this through.

I really hate the off-season.

But there is Good news: We only have about 8 more months of these types of questions............

I think it would be fun and I think it could be a decent cheap option to add some depth. He would have to be willing to take on a very small role and be a good boy (which I dont see as being a problem at this point). I dont think the small role is worth the potential headache or even just the added attention Moss would bring.
