Wouldn't they have to wait until after week 1 to not have his salary be guaranteed?Friend of mine who works at Gilette in foxboro text me that he heard around work that Randy Moss could be signed by wed sept 7th...just a rumor...but i just dropped a bench player and grabbed moss just in case he is right...if not oh well , no biggie

If they sign him, it will be 9/13 at the earliest.
well im guessing that when he heard the talk around work he assumed it meant asap....before the season got underway...again it`s purely conjectureWouldn't they have to wait until after week 1 to not have his salary be guaranteed?Friend of mine who works at Gilette in foxboro text me that he heard around work that Randy Moss could be signed by wed sept 7th...just a rumor...but i just dropped a bench player and grabbed moss just in case he is right...if not oh well , no biggie
post of the night!Brought to you by Miller Lite.
I vote we change the sponsor to Long John Silvers.
Regardless, keep the boards updated. I wouldn't mind Moss as my WR6.well im guessing that when he heard the talk around work he assumed it meant asap....before the season got underway...again it`s purely conjectureWouldn't they have to wait until after week 1 to not have his salary be guaranteed?Friend of mine who works at Gilette in foxboro text me that he heard around work that Randy Moss could be signed by wed sept 7th...just a rumor...but i just dropped a bench player and grabbed moss just in case he is right...if not oh well , no biggie
I need a sponsor that exists north of your border.
You definitely have to have the bench to do it. We carry 9 bench players so plenty of room. I dropped Darnario alexander. I'm fairly confident I can get him again if need be.
It might be wishful thinking, but I think I can smell smoke.
Point taken. But I don't recall Brady weighing in on that situation. Part of the so called "Patriot Way" seems to be that you don't just run your mouth to the press. Welker missed some game time for a few jokes last season. Brady is king Patriot, if he is opening his mouth on player personnel matters I take it as more than just a casual statement because of the Patriot's way of doing things with which Brady is very familiar.So yea it's still a long shot, but at least worth paying some attention to now in my mind.
Tom Brady said Tuesday that he'd "welcome [Randy Moss] back with open arms" if the Patriots decide to bring the retired receiver back.
If they sign him after week 1 and his contract isn't guaranteed I don't think it's as risky a move as rotoworld makes it out to be. I'm pretty sure they'd be able to cut him without any cap implications if he causes any problems.
Ouch. That one will hurt.
I definitely think so.. he is a hall of famer with a great work ethic... the dude isn't done yet... now if he could just be a team player instead of a drama queen....... and we would be talking about when he was going to break Jerry Rice's records instead of "Is anyone going to sign him?"
Geez .... enough already. Moss has nothing left. Nothing. He can't create any seperation anymore. You go ahead and pick him up. Let's see how that works out for you.Friend of mine who works at Gilette in foxboro text me that he heard around work that Randy Moss could be signed by wed sept 7th...just a rumor...but i just dropped a bench player and grabbed moss just in case he is right...if not oh well , no biggie
no not true... he just wasn't trying because in his mind he wasn't appreciated by the Patriots because they didn't make it a point to renew his contract last year... that is the real issue.. do you want to take the chance on a guy who may at some point lose focus because his QB isn't throwing the ball his way for a couple of gamesI think this year more than others because it has taken so long for him to get any attention at all.. he has to have realized that his time in the league is fading fast.. hopefully that will ignite a fire in him to give everything he's got... worth the waiver wire pick-up.. like the OP said.. and you can always drop him without too much of a thought if nothing happensGeez .... enough already. Moss has nothing left. Nothing. He can't create any seperation anymore. You go ahead and pick him up.

Even if Moss returns, I think this is a bad move.

Exactly. Moss may not be the same as he was a decade ago.... but he's likely an upgrade over 2011-12 Branch.
We are talking about a late (last) round flier. Yes. This is when you "Go ahead and pick him and see how it works out". That is the point.Geez .... enough already. Moss has nothing left. Nothing.

exactly the reason I picked him up everywhere I couldwasted pick up? maybe but the risk/reward is so great you gotta take the chance
same here... couldn't agree more
Moss didn't play poorly in NE. He played poorly after that for sure. He was pretty much phased out of the NE game plan while he was there but he didn't play that badly at all.
On the off chance he can, he can sit on my bench as my WR7.
He went for 83-1264-13 and finished as the WR2 in 2009. Last year his struggles seemed to be psychological. Like people have already said, nobody is saying draft him in the 2nd round. It's hardly a high risk move to put him at the end of your bench to see how it plays out.
Agreed
It's an interesting question CH, and I thin most people feel Tennessee was dysfunctional last year. You left off the fact he was booted form Minnesota too, and that also was dysfunctional most of the way. It would seem Moss got under BB's skin in New England and so they made an example out of him. Then he insulted the cook staff on some catered food rough in...must had been blood relatives of Childress because he was gone without the front office even being told, the Childress was gone right after. There are a lot of questions and bad signals, but there are also excuses why he might have fallen off last year. H is not close to what he was but I think he is every bit as good if not better than say Plaxico Burress who is going to start in New York. As a WW pick up, if he hits you have something, many of the players on the waiver wire don't have anywhere near the potential upside if Moss were reunited with Brady. I think the two of them could find a way to work a little magic. I just I knew more about the situation in New England last year...lot of rumors and stories but i never really felt we got the whole truth.
your speed is impressive
