Rodney talks about Moss trade

Quote:

"As I've said before, there aren't many cornerbacks who can stick him man-to-man," he said. "That is going to help us out, because teams usually have to roll the safety to stop him and that can open things for the other guy. And then you consider we have the best quarterback in the league."

Harrison believes Moss's situation mirrors Corey Dillon's from 2004, when Dillon was acquired by the Patriots after struggling in a losing situation in Cincinnati. He also sees similarities to his own situation from 2003, after he was let go by the Chargers and signed with the Patriots.

"When Corey Dillon came in, everyone thought he was an outlaw. He proved otherwise. When I came in, everyone thought I was an outlaw, ruthless. I think I proved otherwise," Harrison said.

"Let's get a chance to know the guy before we make any judgments. If he comes in and is selfish, there are going to be problems. But if he has the right attitude, it will be huge for us.
"

Moss took a HUGE pay cut to come here. I think he means business.

Maybe if Moss gets out of line, Rodney could pop him in the mouth :D

A guy like Rodney and those sorts of comments are why this team can get guys like Moss, Merriweather, and Stallworth and not worry.

All indications are $3m . About 1/3 of his Oakland salary.

Everyone get your popcorn ready, this is going to be a exciting year!! I can't wait till training camps... I hope Rodney can stay healthy though, he's going to be instrumental for the secondary... I wonder if Asante is seeing all this, and saying, " Maybe I should just sign the one year tender."

I was thinking the same thing. Would he really want off this team this year with all the potential it has?

just thinking about this

most people put the pats, pretty much tied with SD, maybe higher, as the favorite to win the superbowl when stallworth was signed....

this is petty crazy, now we have a deep threat on BOTH sides of the field, with the possession receiver in the slot with welker
