We may need Moss' talent, but not his character.

The majority of you who say you would not take Moss for a third are full of sh*t. You are also the same people who thought a second for CD, who quit on the Bengals, was too much. Face it, for a third rounder, Moss is a decent option. Who are we going to get in the 3rd with more upside? Brady won't be here forever, why not reward the guy with a couple of bonafide options? If this was TO, I would say, Hell No! He ruins every team he is on win or lose. IMO it is certainly worth a 3rd round punt to grab Moss, will it happen, most likely not. However, more than half of the people who said "no way" in this thread would be drooling over a thread in April stating we got Moss for nothing more than a 3rd.

But Gabriel and Moss were good friends. Gabriel was a complete failure on and apparently off the field.

Moss would constantly want to be in the limelight and would never keep his mouth shut about anything.

Not cool to have Moss around our youngsters like Maroney Jackson etc.

 

[FilPats]

After the gabriel flop, I doubt the Pats will do it. Randy may not be a good influence on the younger players and will be a huge cap hit.

No way man,I would rather pick 1 0r 2 in draft or FA.....Isn't Holt going be a FA??????

I believe in 2010 or 2009.

Wrong. Even if he can be gotten for a third, he would still cost 20M over the next two years. Forget a restructure, that's just too far from what the Patriots would be willing and able to pay. Even if he decided he wanted to win a ring he'd never take a pay cut of more than 50%.

hes not past his prime..hes got more talent than any of our WRs really..

Yes he may have more talent than our guys, but he *is* past his prime.

You have no clue what the Pats are willing to pay. I am pretty confident that you would have said the same thing about Rosey. "No way the pats will pay for him." Well they did.

As for being past his prime...thats questionable. Is he injury prone? YES. Has he had a QB who can throw the ball or a line that can protect long enough for Moss to get downfield? NO.
