I know ill never live this thread down and everybody will say "oh no, another randy moss thread" but after hearing that the price for Moss is a second round pick...I think its a no brainer that they make the trade...we have an extra one as a gift! NE is no longer in the running bc they traded their #2 to MIA for wannabe Chrebet (Wes Welker). I would like to see Moss here personally
If he could button his attitude it would be good to see him back with Chad , but who would we cut , Coles,Cotchery (no just resigned) Tim Dwight or Brad Smith? His talent has never been in question , but again attitude has. Other needs first I think
McCareins + R5 pick = good trade, IMO. IF and only IF he sits down with Mangini beforehand and Eric thinks they can work together.
If Randy Moss were to come here cutting Justin wouldn't be enough, it would have to signal the end for Coles. You can't have 3 guys like Moss, Coles and Cotchery on 1 team. That's too much $ invested in 1 position and there aren't enough balls to go around to keep everyone happy.
Yea they had chemistry in their younger days but alot has changed.Moss is a great Wr with speed that kills . But could Chad get Randy the ball deep on a constint basis ?
With Schotty calling the shots, im sure he can figure something out to get the ball into those guys very capable hands. I also think Pennington would do a lot to calm Moss down and make him button his lip, he has a tremendous amount of respect for Chad
That could be a probleme too but then our pass game would demand serious respect and our run game would open up for Jones and Leon...It might be a good move if Chad can get the deep ball going !!!
i could imagine cotchery being quiet as we dominate opponents. i dont like his attitude at all but the guy just hates losing. if he came here, id find it hard for us to lose many games, but honestly this would put us on par with, if not over any offense in the league. all we would need is a solid RT then again i dont see this happening unless the sky falls or randy takes a paycut, both have the same probability.
We threw it 488 times last season, that # figures to go down w/ a decent running game. There is no way we could have 3 WRs of that caliber on the same team, Even if Moss came for free which he won't- he has a cap eating contract and will cost picks- there's just no way we could keep Coles and bring in Moss.
I think Cotch would be fin but Coles & Moss would expect more- you can't have the 2 of them on the same team w/ another WR the caliber of Cotchery. Those guys need the ball.
You cannot bring Randy Moss here right now. Cotchery needs 125 balls thrown at him next year. Coles needs the same. The Tightends should get 60-75 and the backs 100. That's 425+ passes right there. Where is Moss gonna get his throws from? There's nobody on this team right now that could throw the 550+ passes necessary to satisfy everybody. If the Jets moved Coles then there'd be room for Moss. Until then there just isn't. And I'd think long and hard before I let a really tough, durable and productive receiver like Coles go to make room for an enigma who has repeatedly quit on his team when the going got tough and who has had his share of injuries as well. Coles lip can get him in trouble but he is a great possession reciever with enough speed to burn one all the way now and then. How many guys are there like that in the NFL these days anyway? The argument that Coles is winding down may well turn out to be true. Moss is no spring chicken either and his quitting is getting to be a bad habit.
If Moss were to come here then Coles would have to be traded and McCarins will be released. Coles has more good days behind him as opposed to ahead of him and I would rather trade him a year to early as opposed to a year to late. The problem is Can Chad control Moss and also is Chad going to be the Jets Qb for the next few years. If the F/O thinks Chad is a stop Gap Qb then Moss should not come here but if they feel Chad is the answer to get us to the next level then Moss makes sense.
Even if it was true, that wouldn't have anything to do with Moss. If we are gonna go up that high I'm sure it will be for Calvin Johnson..If we got CJ there would be no need for Moss. Either way I would bet my house that Moss is not playing with the Jets next year, nor should he.
