I believe Moss broke the record for receiving TDs.  In their 18-1 season.   He was a huge pick up even if it was for one season.  Boldin wasn't close to Blackmon?  How so, Boldin and Fitzgerald gave teams fits.  Had they ever had QB they would have been the best tandem in the NFL.   Not sure how you figure Blackmon is Superior to Boldin.

 

Note I said some people - as in, the year he was traded - obviously Moss payed off big but he wouldn't have been a 4th rounder if they'd known he'd have that kind of production.  Just look at the first time Moss hit the market...

 

As to Boldin, I forgot his first couple years.  Dumb of me.  But I think that Blackmon is still better than Boldin was then, given quarterbacks and other receiving threats on the team to relieve pressure.

Boldin was a key figure in the Super Bowl run last year.  What makes you believe Blackmon is better?  Be honest with you,  I can't remember too many highlights Blackmon has. (Granted he plays for Jacksonville)

 

As far as Moss is concerned.  New England stole him.  A 4th for a NFL record in receiving TDs and a super bowl run.    I'd give u a 4th round pick every year if it got my team a spot in the Super Bowl.

 

The argument isn't trading for the talent.  It is what you give up to get it.   I would not give up a first or second day pick for him.   Day three I would start at 7 and work my way to 4.   If they want to dump him.  I am going to low ball the hell out of them.

 

Blackmon is like a new car.  He's a first round pick but when you drive him off the lot.  His value depreciates immediately.

Jaguars announce WR Justin Blackmon has been suspended indefinitely for violating substance abuse policy. Was suspended Weeks 1-4, also.

Glad we didn't do that trade.

 

 

Whew.  Dodged a bullet on that one.  Tons of talent, but an absolute idiot.  It's odd how he got a DUI in college and now it seems beyond obvious that he's a full blown alchoholic, yet all the talk about him leading up to the draft was about what a great guy and teammate he was etc.  There was very little talk of off the field problems with him despite the previous DUI.
