If we're going to go after jerry porter, shouldn't we go after randy moss?
 

I hear rumblings that moss wants out of oakland... if we're going to go after one malcontent WR, shouldn't we go after the most talented malcontent WR instead?

The answer to the questions is yes. I made this point last night in another thread. However, we have no need of these two jerks who do not deserve to wear a Pats uniform. This is nothing like the Cory Dillon situation. Dillon never had character issues and he always worked very hard.

Digger, Corey has been a terrific Patriot. But the statement that he "never had character issues" is simply bizarre. He had conflicts with coaches, teammates and fans. He had a long police record, both juvenile and adult. His signing was very controversial here and as I recall he had to have a personal conversation with Bob Kraft before the Patriots made the trade. In short, Dillon personified "character issues." He now personifies redemption, and I give him tons of credit for turning himself around and being such a positive part of this team. But that doesn't rewrite history. (Nor does it mean that Randy Moss would nessarily follow in Dillon's footsteps, btw. But I'd still take a chance on a Brady-Moss combo.)

Moss, in my eyes has already redeemed himself. All reports out of Oakland say he's a fantastic teammate and great in the locker room. To go through that hell and make only one minor peep about it (interview about Art Shell where he vented) for a future HOF'er is amazing. If we could get him for a second I'd be all over it, anything more and I'd be hesitant.

I think that Moss coming here would be a case of the mass effecting the one, and not the one effecting the masses.

Not that I've been following, but he seems to have been pretty quiet since joining the Raiders..(?)

I for one, would not want Big Sey angry at me in the locker room.....

I don't think Moss would fit our system. I might be wrong but Brady is not the best deep ball thrower.

Re: If we're going to go after jerry porter, shouldn't we go after randy moss?
 

I don't think there's any way the Raiders could trade Moss. Whose jersey would Raiders fans buy? Aaron Brooks?

But yes, I'd much rather have Moss than Porter. He's a much better player and a similar headcase. Porter isn't even worth a 3, Moss is worth a (late) 1 easily.

Re: If we're going to go after jerry porter, shouldn't we go after randy moss?
 

Neither is Culpepper except when he had Moss to throw to :)

I would much rather have Moss than Porter. Moss has gotten so much better, at least it seems, attitude-wise. I think it also helps that Gabriel and him are buddies.

Re: If we're going to go after jerry porter, shouldn't we go after randy moss?
 

I think the universe would implode if Brady got somebody like Moss to throw to. Therefore, I hope we pass.

Someone is mentioning Moss has a cap hit of like 10 million per year for the next 3 years. I would give a first no problem for Moss, but not if that is his cap hit.
