2003 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 The best bet for a Randy Moss trade is to Oakland for the Raiders' No. 7 overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft and cornerback Philip Buchanon. -- St. Paul Pioneer Press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see Norv Turner and Randy Moss not having lots of friction. Turner seems like a bit of a pushover, Moss seems like a bit of a pushover-er!

Pete Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 The best bet for a Randy Moss trade is to Oakland for the Raiders' No. 7 overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft and cornerback Philip Buchanon. -- St. Paul Pioneer Press 234088[/snapback] Raiders are getting screwed! I would rather have Jerry Porter then Moss. Buchanon is a decent CB and gives the Raiders bookends with Woodson. Number 7 will get a great player. Mike Williams perhaps. Cadillac or Cedric maybe. The Raiders would be best served to stand pat then add that cancer to their team. Al Davis is a dumbass though who loves reclaimation projects so I would not doubt if he made that assinine trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuckincincy Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Possible home for Drew? 234114[/snapback] It would cause a well-attended send-off party. DB wouldn't get the irony, though...I'm convinced he's thicker than frozen cow manure but with nowhere the adaptibility under pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 One thing you can say about Oakland; they have much broader acceptance guidelines than most other teams, ours included. I suspect it adds to the mystique. But Moss to Oakland makes sense...though I wouldn't have imagined he could pull a high first round pick AND Buchanan. Maybe he can. But I think that's a lot for Moss. Conversly, it would be a tremendous move for the Vikings. They'd get a pal for Winfield, which they need, AND a high pick, where they could maybe grab an Evans-like rookie. Get rid of Moss, and maybe not slip TOO dramatically on offense. Frankly, Culpepper is to Moss as Bledsoe is to Moulds. To a fault. A fault I think that cost the Vikings better resullts this past year. Almost addition by subtraction, but more like not-so-bad subtraction by subtraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost addition by subtraction, but more like not-so-bad subtraction by subtraction. 234120[/snapback] fair enough assessment, but i will say one thing about moss -- he's hands down the best receiver in the league, and has been so since he entered the league in '98. he missed a half dozen games this year due to a hamstring pull, but that's hardly a debilitating injury and he should be 100% next year. and for all of the criticism leveled at him, it really can't be argued that the guy doesn't produce. in fact, he's staggeringly productive, and if the vikings D was better than a JV squad the past few years, they would have done a lot more than they did.

He really started to click with his receivers. I hardly think QB is their main priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
