Sign Moss long term now.....
 
We've seen enough of the greatness, let's lock up Randy long term before he rides off into the sunset next season with some mega-deal from some other team. I don't expect the Pats to resign Stallworth simply because the Option dollars on his current deal are incredibly high. I see Chad Jackson slipping into Donte's spot next season.

Wouldn't they have to make some mid-season cuts and restructuring of some deals to make something happen before the off season?

They would, but they can structure the deal right now to take a small CAP hit this year and spread it out over 4 years.

If I were you, I'd probably want to see Moss locked into a long term contract before Snyder comes sniffing around willing to throw a ton of draft picks your way. He's an awesome player. Imagine what he could do in a Skins' uniform...

My guess is his contract gets extended for a few years before the season is over.

Don't think that's an option. They're not allowed to redo a contract twice in 1 year and since he's only on a 1 year contract he will have to become a free agent after the season ends and then the Pats can sign him.

No doubt about Snyder, but here's the funny thing, he wouldn't have to give up draft picks, Randy would be a UFA at the end of the year if we don't ink him up now, we can't let that happen.

stallworth i thought signed a multiyear contract. . I do not understand resigning stallworth comment.

if stallworth performs and gets cut i assure you that will be the end of deals like stallworth ,dillion,washington and even moss for the patriots. they could never say play 1 yr and prove your are worth your contract in the future.
30 million for a 26yr old stallworth with the cap growing is close to market value.

Moss - he might stay or he might leave but i think its once he gets his ring he might change his tone .too early to predict.One more the CBA will not allow more than 1 contract change in a year .Moss came over in his old contract and redid it alreay for this year.

You can keep imagining because it's not going to happen. Moss will be right along side Brady again next year.

I would hope so. And I don't think Moss would insist on breaking the bank, either. Moss seems to be genuinely enjoying football for the first time in a long time.
