Get it through the rocks in your heads-we don't sign players that want millions and millions of dollars and are VERY high profile (except Brady and Seymour who were both drafted within) - As I said before,BB sticks to his plan on building this team mainly through the draft and good overlooked low profile players who get cut by others and to which BB sees him as a team player and one to fit on this team - Sure BB & the FO want big name game changing players-we all do on here as well,All the teams do,But you can't get Caviar if you want to pay Tuna Fish price,If Moss was willing to work for half price of his current salary and If the Raiders were willing to get screwed twice in the same season by accepting a low draft pick in compensation,than Moss would have been signed but you know if you have a brain bigger than a poppy seed,that was not going to happen in Patriotville - Fantasy Island was a TV show-get real!
Players want BIG money if they think they deserve it and other than Bruschi and Brady and a few others out there in the NFL who deserve more pay, most won't settle for less than top dollar.
I don't think to many people who were in favor of bringing Moss in via a trade and a restructured contract said or were admiment that it would happen. The majority if not all us were discussing how they felt about it and what would be an acceptable offer to Oakland for him. I don't think you followed those threads well enough.

Do you want to re-phrase that?

NO name profile players with talent+Value at their position=A Patriots type player
Don't waste your time trying to smooth relations with all the boneheads on this board. It's amazing how clueless some of these people are. The patriots will never at any time sign Randy Moss or anyone of his ilk.

Still, in the vein of million-dollar players who are Patriots-style players:

Isn't Colvin up for a huge salary increase next year? I'm talking big bucks, like within the top 4-5 salaries on the team.

How do people see that one playing out? Is Rosie willing to restructure for the Pats' benefit, a la Willie or Ted Johnson? Remember how happy they were with that in both cases, with Ted even temporarily going AWOL on the team.

Whats it gonna take for some of you to understand and realize the only way we sign Big NAME players is in the offseason and even then its rare in the Belichick era,Lets face it,If you want big name players to sign in October you need 2 things to happen 1)Belichick retires & 2)Kraft sells the team
The way its gonna be in New England until then is this - We sign GOOD PRODUCTIVE PLAYERS,RARILY BIG TIME HIGH MONEY PLAYERS.
BB and the FO goes with the formula which took them to the dance before and that means getting good value on a player,not overpaying him or signing him just because he would make us look better with a big name out there - Get used to the world not knowing most of the patriots players names unless they belong to Patriots Nation - I kinda like that 'secretive success we have had in the past 5 years' and NEVER this week did I think a Moss was going to 'Gather' up here.....Bottom Line:We DO NOT change the formula of players we have once we get into the season,and even more so if you expect a big name,ain't happenin the next few years unless you see him on the roster by Training Camp - thats the Belichick way and until we see something going bad for awhile,why stop it now?
My advice is get out of daydreaming la-la land ,If you want big name players and want to pay steep money and be backed up in FA hell for the next 10 years then try and become a fan of Dallas or Washington-they love to overpay
Whatever.

I guess you were following another team when the Patriots tried to *sign* Derrick Mason in 2005? Welcome to my ignore list, jack-off
