Owens will never sign with a team where he is not the unquestioned #1 WR. Since we currently have a Pro Bowler on our roster who spins screen passes into gold like Rumplestiltskin by the name of Santana F'ing Moss, Owens would likely not want to come here even if we'd have him. Which we wouldn't.

He's a player who crucifies his coaches and teammates if he doesn't get his way. We don't show patience with talented players who complain quietly behind the sidelines. We had a guy like that - goes by the name of Laveranues - and we ate a multi-million dollar cap hit rather than put up with nonsense. Coles caught 172 balls for 2158 in a Redskins uni. During that same time, Owens caught 157 balls for 2302 yards. There's a tremendous TD disparity, but that's a function of more than talent. If we were willing to hurt our team's ability to sign players to get rid of one of the top ten receivers in football, why would we risk so much to acquire one who is on the wrong side of 30 years old, but has a history of screwing his team?
