That makes zero sense for TB. TB is looking for a starting RB, not a kick returner.

Did you see the stretch that Moore put up as starter a couple of years back?

You mean he could never carry the load as in carry the ball 300+ times for 1200+ yards and catch 40+ balls? Yea you're right he could never do that.McGahee traded for a couple thirds...Thomas Jones for a swap of second roundersChester is worth about a 5th at best. The guy just cant carry the load as a feature back all season and Im not sold that peterson could either...
This trade does not make sense at all...
Why not go after Micheal Turner instead?

I don't see why the Vikes would give up either of these players for less than two first round picks. McKinnie was a top ten pick himself and is not a bust. If you don't get a first rounder for him that is a step backwards. Taylor? He was a top Rb last year and is still capable. No, they don't "need" him but in case you didn't notice RBs get hurt a lot; and, AD is injury prone. So, why trade your other reliable RB?
i have heard rumors about Moore, and that makes more sense. personally I think moore could be a very effective back, especially with someone else to do the dirty work on third and short and at the goal line to keep him healthy. Moore for a third round pick makes sense.

Not at all if the team that gets him signs him toat least a short extension. Hes not gonna cost an arm and a leg and would be an awesome addition to any team needing a RB to keep hope alive. As a Vikings fan I already miss seeing him come in and provide a spark. There is however no room at the Vikings inn for him right now as we have ADP and MM is ADP light.

MM would help out with special teams and add to the mess at RBBC

Feel the need to jump in on this
a> the Bucs don't need Chester Taylor with Mike Pittman and Ernie Graham (sorry for the abbreviation of first names)
b> the Vikings don't need Chester Taylor, so they certainly wouldn't overvalue him, see ATP as #4 RB in FF, Mewelde being Mewelde.. a more than capable backup.
CT has value, but neither needs him.
So if there is a deal, a shame if the "bluff card" is wasted on CT.

noticed how he slowed down around the last quarter of the season and was basically worthless at that point? I like Chester...he just isnt a feature back. Obviously the Vikings thought that as well.You mean he could never carry the load as in carry the ball 300+ times for 1200+ yards and catch 40+ balls? Yea you're right he could never do that.McGahee traded for a couple thirds...Thomas Jones for a swap of second roundersChester is worth about a 5th at best.

a. why abbreviate the first names and then waste time/space apologizing for the abbreviations? Isn't that counterproductive?
b. I'm not really high on Chester, but IMO he is definitely an upgrade over Pittman and Graham as a runner and receiver.

Just for the record, neither the Tampa Bay Buccaneers nor the Vikings play fantasy football - which is why both teams would want Taylor. Minny, because they're not carrying 4 starting RBs like in FF. If AP goes down they have no viable starter. The Bucs because they are 3-1 and see an opportunity in a relatively weak NFC to make a run at the playoffs. CT has value because both teams need him. MM is the "settle for" for both, imho.
slowed down or was injured?+noticed how he slowed down around the last quarter of the season and was basically worthless at that point? I like Chester...he just isnt a feature back.
