Randy Moss to Patriots for 4th Rounder
 

Adam Schefter is reporting that Randy Moss is to be traded to New England for a 4th round pick.

Given thatthe Pats used a 2nd rounder to draft a wideout, got Donte and Stallworth, Wes Welker, I expect to hear Len Pastabelly say how "redundant" this move is. If the Redskins were as active as the Pats this offseason the media would be having a field day.

That all being said, the move is a good one for everyone. I'd trade a 4th rounder for Moss, especially in light of his willingness to dramatically lower his cap number.

what a steal for the pats

I'm suprised they are taking a chance on MOSS. After last season NOT being into it? Yea, I know the Raiders suck, but your collecting a pay check.

A steal if he performs like he should

After hearing rumors that Moss has lost a step, I am curious to see if that physical will include the 40 yard time. Does he still have it or not???

I don't know what performs like he should means with this guy? He USED to be a really good WR......but ALWAYS A HEAD CASE.

Bobby Beathard says that the Pats this year are totally different than the 2000 Redskins. When they went on a shopping spree. He says than Snyder is like a kid in the candy store, while the Pats are making moves that make more sense. The Pats have got to be the front runners for a Super Bowl appearance. The went from the worst recieving corps to one of the best

Wait until Brady maintains his superior ability to spread the ball around thus limiting Moss' production. We'll see how long he holds his tongue.

Yeah he's been a head case since day one, but he was dominant in Minny. He stopped playing hard in Oaktown because "he said he wasn't having fun". Last time I checked, NFL stood for NO FUN LEAGUE

Re: Randy Moss to Patriots for 4th Rounder
 

I can't wait until Brady throws to Stallworth, or Gaffney, or Caldwell, or anybody other than Moss and he decides to throw a tantrum/walk off the field early/not run a route. There is a reason the worst team in football, with no offense, thought getting rid of him was worth a 4th round pick.

Well everyone at the time said the moves made sense. We were a top pick for the SB in prseason. Only now in hindsight is the folly of those moves obvious. Maybe in 5 or 6 years people will be saying the same thing about the Pats. Maybe not.

ESPN (mort) JUST said they verified his 40 time.......4.29....he lost a baby step.

I know. That's a damn shame go to WORK make ALL that CASH and NOT HAVE ANY FUN, and just decide not to do my job. I wouldn't know how to go to work and have so much FUN, and if not having fun decide to STOP WORK.

Glad he's in a Gaytriot jersey. No use for a HEAD CASE like MOSS in DC, we might already have one? Hopefully he'll do better this year?

I doubt Randy Moss will be a malcontent. Even if he doesn't get the ball as much as he wants, he won't be in the type of environment where mouthing off is allowed. The veteran players will keep him in check, IMO.

I've always seen Moss as the type of player who wants to fit in, and will be careful not to alienate himself. The only times I have seen him be a poor teammate is when there are other questionable teammates on the same team. Unlike Owens, I don't think he'll put himself in a position where the rest of the team hates him.

Re: Randy Moss to Patriots for 4th Rounder
 

Moss has lost a step, or maybe his motivation level is just shot after playing in the black hole. If he can't revive himself in New England he probably never will.
