If it happens, Favre's fantasy value will suddenly skyrocket. :D

dude did anyone else think first off..wow if it's for a first rounder...that gives the Pats 3 first round picks?

why don't we have talented people to trade like that!

I guess they didn't want to part with their washing machine to get devin thomas

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Moss is working out the contract according to patriots sources

A first round draft pick for a WR that turns 34 in a few months? Thats nuts.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Wow.....desperation to get to the super bowl with an ancient QB in his last year.
Oh the drama.......

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

I doubt the Vikings would give a 1st rounder or 2nd rounder unless they hired Vinny as their GM.

Re: Randy Moss Getting Traded
 

Vikings could be 1-3 after the Jets this week. Favre has been horrible, and they need a QB in the draft next yr, the deal makes no sense on Minnesota's end..and The Pats would have a slim but possible chance to beat the Jets/Ravens/Colts come playoff time wit Brady and Moss..a strange deal IMO.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

I'm sure randy had some words for last nights 0 catch game. I still dont see Minnesota going far

you know what else is nuts...a cowboy fan on a redskins board.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Just for the record...I have always believed and thought that one day...Randy Moss would be a Redskin at some point in his career.

I will probably be wrong,I'm sure
But you never know...?

Bruce could possibly slip in these negotiations.
After all,we do have a 40 year old wr in galloway here,so Moss would be a youth movement..lol

and btw..I would rather rent Randy Moss for 3 or 4 years then take the chance that V-Jack doesn't get in a car and Drink & Drive...

2 Moss's would be cool...lol
"Damn,that redskins team has Moss everywhere"...lol

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

It'll be nuts up there. Can't they pick him up AFTER we play them? Assuming it goes through of course.

I think our game is after the trade deadline.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Still, you have to say, who would have thunk it?

Would anyone would have thought even this offseason that Brett Favre and Randy Moss would play together on the same team?

Two well-placed NFL sources predicting tonight that the Randy Moss-to-Minnesota trade will be consummated Wednesday.

Why didn't we make a run at Moss 81 ?

Why would we??

[quote=DCtoAZ;743783]Why didn't we make a run at Moss 81 ?[/quote]

When? If you're talking about 2008, Randy Moss wasn't going anywhere but back to New England. Besides, we probably would have gotten just as much as Oakland got out of him. Our talent at QB since the Moss trade to Oakland, and even before that hasn't been much better then the Raiders. Still once McNabb starts to see the field better and learns where people are in the offense we'll see much better production in the passing game. Elite receivers are a nice to have, not a need to have.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Good for them still don't think mini go far.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

The Patriots own Oakland in the front office. They have got their 1st rd pick next yr AND if they get a 1st rounder for Moss now, that means they would have leveraged a 4th rd pick they gave to OAK in 2007 for a 1st round pick for a WR 4 yrs older in the 2011 draft.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

It's about to be completed.

Clearly a desperation move.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

It sounds like Pats are getting a 3rd.

Good business: NE traded a 4th-rd pick to Oakland for Randy Moss and will get back a 3rd -- after 300+ receptions and a few dozen TDs. 34 minutes ago via ÜberTwitter

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Pats now have 8 picks in the first 4 round next year. Amazing.

If Revis and the Jets beat the Vikings on Monday though that's a huge hole for the Vikes to come out of and Moss will be none too happy I'm sure

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

I swear New England always seems to get the better half of their trades. But this is going to hurt their offense. I guess Ben Tate's fantasy value just went up.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Just heard the trade is a wrap. Moss is a Viking again. Good lord what has the world come to.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Will be cool to see Moss back in the purple, I always liked Minn. & they were exciting when he was in his prime there.

The pats did this last year w/another solid vet - R. Seymour. They have given up some good, productive players for draft picks & as Smootsmack points out - 8 picks in 4 rounds next year is huge. They have paid the price in the meantime though, I think they miss Seymour, and I think they will miss Moss too (they certainly are missing Maroney as well).

I'm glad we didn't get Moss.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

I am so amazed at he Patriots' front office.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Maybe Favre can help salvage my $$ league team. He killed me in the first 3 games.

A funny side note from Ross Tucker and Peter King:

If MLB Commish Bud Selig didn't hate the NFL after McNabb trade on Opening Day, he does now after Moss trade on first day of postseason. 7 minutes ago via web

I wish that we put more emphasis on the draft. Note that we traded a 3 and a 4 for Brandon Marshall, another 3 and a 4 for TJ Duckett, while the Raiders acquired Randy Moss [I]in his prime[/I] for a 4. Hopefully our days of tossing draft choices like confetti for marginal players are over.

3rd and 4th for Brandon Marshall. Ha! I wish

The Duckett move was my least favorite move (arguably) of the past decade. I saw no point in it, especially since we never actually used him

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Yes, the Duckett trade was completely ridiculous

I think their two rookie TEs also had something to do with it. Apparently, Wes Welker finally has some friends to establish the Pats' faux running game.

re: Vikings and Patriots complete trade for Randy Moss
 

Danny Woodhead is pretty shifty coming out of the backfield. He's like a Welker type at RB.

Question:

Would NE now trade for V Jackson? Certainly they have the picks.
