Total Meltdown Scenario... presented by WFNZ

Nope...Shock and Moss are completely different players in every aspect of the game. I believe this team NEEDS Jeremy Shockey not just for his ability to catch the ball but because he brings an edge. Randy brings no edge. Other than Shockey and Steve Smith on offense who has a mean streak? You don't want to get rid of that when you still have a young QB. Gotta have the older guys who won't back down from going over the middle and will lay a defender out if they are bearing down on the franchise QB. Moss would leave Cam out to dry and we'd lose a blocker for the run game...rather have Shockey right now.

haha i would be fine with that. I feel that barnidge could replace shock and ive always liked moss

Moss helped me win my first fantasy championship when he went to the pats but Im really just completely over the barnidge experiment. Coulda woulda shoulda, plus he doesnt have the same fire or leadership ability as Shock. Sorry Moss but i love me some shock. no homo

Moss brings nothing to the table for us at this point. We already have 2 deep threats in Gettis and Smith. We hae a possession receiver in LaFell and could better use a slot receiver like Welker versus a Moss. As for Shockey, he would be worth keeping if we could get him on a 2 year contract with little guaranteed money.

why are you people obsessed with either of these players?

Moss can no longer separate and was basically cut from three teams his last year in the league.

Jeremy Shockey can no longer separate from anything and is a glorified 6th lineman. The Panthers could easily replace his production with a late round blocking tight end.

but noooo something something attitude goo goo ga ga

    • I think taking T-Mac changes how to look at XL and the season he had, especially in retrospect. If you look at his rookie season from the viewpoint of "we traded into the 1st round to take him as our #1 WR of the future" then yea, he had a god awful rookie season and I'd be scared about his future.  But we've now drafted T-Mac, it allows us to now go back and look at XL's rookie season in a totally different light. XL was a late bloomer, essentially having only one college season of experience, he was always going to be VERY raw last year.  If we knew at the time that one year later, we'd have a true #1 and XL "only needs to be a future #2 and potentially doing it from a power slot position" then I'm not so sure he had all that bad of a rookie season. Because he still had 49 catches for 500 yards and 4 TDs, which really is a pretty darn good rookie season for a player as raw as XL was/is, especially when you consider the QB struggles we had last year, and even once Bryce turned things around a bit, we were still a run based team and Bryce's stats were anything but mind-blowing.   Personally, I think it's one of those situations where people are too focused on the negatives with XL and not seeing all the positives and potential he has given how raw he still is. If he's worked on his craft and cuts back on his drops, it's very reasonable to think he could be a 70 catch, 800 yards, and 5 TD type of player for us in year 3 when he's the #2 after Thielen is gone. How many teams have that type of talent as their #2 WR behind a guy putting up 1,200+ and 10 on a yearly basis as their #1 as I fully expect T-Mac to be doing? Then if Coker also improves slightly and is kicking in 600-700 yards himself, then you've built yourself a Top 5 WR room.
    • Mel Kiper's long illustrious history would also indicate that neither does Mel Kiper. It's almost like this poo isn't an exact science or something and that there's a lot of different variables that go into whether or not a guy is successful. It's just that according to Mel Kiper, everyone else is an idiot and he's perfect. LOL 
    • Pats traded randy moss to aquire Ryan Mallett.  Insane. Guess Mel Kiper was right. NFL doesn't know how to evaluate quarterbacks
