OK, I understand Moss has yet to play in a real game as a Patriot. But let's say given what you know of his abilities and if he does meet our expectations.

Would Moss be the most potent Patriot WR since Irving Fryar? Daryl Stingley? Stanley Morgan?

Seeing Moss' career from my eyes, and I've started watching football in 1985, I can't remember any Pats WR in a long time that can do what Randy does on the field. My immediate thought says "Terry Glenn," but I know must be wrong here.

I remember when the Pats traded for Moss I was awaiting any sportswriter to promptly compare him to past great Pats WRs (saying "Moss could very well be the most effective wide receiver for the Patriots since [whoever's the last great Pats WR name here]", but I couldn't find any.

If Moss is at 80% capacity, try "Ever."

let's see how he plays before we crown him the best receiver the pats have ever had.

I'll hold my comparisons until he gets half the season under his belt. Remember, it's the Randy Moss of 2007, and I'm not saying his play has slipped or improved. It's that he's never played with Tom Brady and been combined with this type of team. On top of that, he's been in the training room for the majority of pre-season. Let's see a healthy Moss at work with the team. While I have a lot of optimism, we won't really know until he shows it on the field.

For Moss to be even considered in the same sentence as Stanley Morgan he would have to have a 1,500 yard season and many TDs for me to put him at the level or over Morgan after only 1 season or two.

I don't think 40 year old guys like me will ever live long enough to see a more consistent performing WR in a Patriots uniform like the 'Steamer'

Based upon pure potential and raw WR talent, not production, in order the best WR's we've had in the past 30 years:

Moss
Morgan
Fryar
Glenn
Branch


and of course.....


Reeeeeshaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!!!!!

You forgot Troy.

And Don't Forget Moss' quote about the subject he isnt even the best Marshall WR on this team.

If by potent you mean, most unstoppable WR, it has to be Troy Brown. Granted i am only 23 and have not seem most of that list play. Troy is always open.

Although Troy is easily one of the best all around football players and greatest Patriots of all time in the mold of a Gina Cappiletti, he is far from being an "unstoppable" receiver.
