Lombardi: Randy Moss waived by Vikings [mergedx19]

[sieglo]

New York Jets. They would pay $3 mill to do that to us.

They'd also have to use a roster spot. I don't see it happening.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I can see the redskins or the cowgirls.

Broncos have nothing to lose but not sure JMcD has the currency to convince Pat Bowlen that Moss would make the team better.

 

[PatRiot]

So MINNY rented Moss for 3 games for a 3rd round pick !!! AMAZING TRADE

I hope he is coming back to New England.

Then the Hershal Walker trade no longer looks like the stupiest trade in NFL history. :singing::singing::singing:

Love Moss for his post game comments :rocker::rocker::rocker:

Remaining stops on the Bill Belichick Randy Moss Covert Destruction Tour 2010: Browns, Colts & Jets.

By week 17 we will have screwed over Childress, Mangina, Manning & the Jets and have all their playbooks & audibles as well.

Next stop, World Domination! LMAO

Please guys stop it now!!! I can't stop laughing and it's starting to hurt!!

I would look for Seattle to claim him, if they pass then Jets and Dolphins would seriously consider. I cannot see Moss reporting to the Jets though, Miami would be interesting

 

[Patsrock]

If he decides not to report to whatever team claims him, what happens next year? Is he a FA, or does the new team still hold his rights?

They hold his rights until the release him or mar 1st. Happened in 2002 to Deion Sanders He wanted to come back the Redskins released him and he had to go thru waivers. Chargers claimed him and he was not going to report.

With the Moss/Revis dynamic, I'd expect Randy to go postal if the Jets got the claim.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

LOL this is unbelievable stuff.

I'll be happy as long as he doesn't go to a contender.

 

[MustaphaM0nd]

IF the Patriots want him (which is a big if), they won't put in a waiver claim, seeing as they are 32nd anyway. They'll just wait until he is a free agent and sign him at Minnesota's expense.

I can conceivably see him wanting to play for no team other than NE. I'm not so sure the Patriots want him, however. They'll do their due diligence like they usually do. If they think Randy can come back and help us they'll pull the trigger, and if they don't, lets hope he doesn't go to a contender.

I personally don't think the more smash-mouth offense we've been using lately and the 07-style shotgun sets are mutually exclusive. Having Randy as a role player to take the top off and catch long balls would be nice, if its something he's willing to do.

Imagine if you take our D as it is playing now, and our offense with both the capabilities it has now and the capabilities it had with Moss available?

 

[patsinthesnow]

Maybe this was all ment to happen on BB's wall of world domination at his house. Moss will go to the Colts where he will lateral it to Mccourty with 1 minute left in the afc championship.

 

[MossWelkowski]

Bigger question guys! What is the time frame here?! how long does each team have to decide whether they want him? Or do they just put in claims and have a what? 24 hour period?


Anybody know the deadline to claim him? (I.E. Tomorrow at 4?)

Well, here's a question.....

Who loses snaps if Moss comes back? Would it be Branch or Tate?

 

[DaBruinz]

I wouldnt be surprised if he cleared waivers.Alot of teams might be scared now to sign Moss.The only teams i could see are the jets or the dolphins for the simple fact they are in our division.The Jets dont need him though.

They Jets have Holmes, Edwards, Cotchery. I agree with you. They don't need him, but taking a weapon away from your opponent is never a bad thing.

I would guess somewhere in that time frame. If he isnt claimed tomorrow by 3 or 4, then he is a FA.

 

[CheeseMonkeys]

Does anyone else think the Rams may pull the trigger on Moss?

That is my understanding of the waiver process. It's a 24 hours period. Starting at 4 PM the day the player is waived and ending at 4 PM the following day.

 

[The Dynasty]

Well, here's a question.....

Who loses snaps if Moss comes back? Would it be Branch or Tate?

They both would. Branch would play Tate's role, thus decreasing his snaps. Then Tate would drop to the #4, thus decreasing his snaps

 

[D-Money]

Our team is 6-1.I think we are 6-1 on moxy.We have a QB who knows how to win games.They are still question marks with our defense.They hardly get pressure and give up huge chunks of yards.The last two teams havent maded us pay.The game against the steelers on the road will tell us more about our team.

 

[DaBruinz]

I don't know who is the person tweeting over a NESN, but seriously? How can you tweet this: " Did Vikings cut Randy Moss Because He Got Favre Injured? "

HUH? What did Randy have to do with Brett taking one in the chest from Myron Pryor?

 

[Patsrock]

Bakes - aren't their rules about teams having already claimed players off waivers?

I believe it resets every week.
