Should the Jaguars Consider Randy Moss?

I love that country boy (no homo)

I’d be happy to have Moss on the team, and I think if he gets too big for his britches, Malarkey would have no problem sitting him…

Look, Im usually not into retreading aging talent. If we are talking about any other team that can draft and groom WR talent then I so no hands down. But the Jags can’t cannot and have not done that so if the checks and balances work out I say why not. Until Gene shows or until this offense can put together competent TD scoring drives they need all the help they can get. Besides do something different for a change and stop being predictable. If Moss head and game is in the right place, go for it.

and in the words of Forrest Gump “That’s all I got ta say about that”

moss is 35, prob still runs sub 4.5 40, 6’4’’ with a vertical leap prob still in the mid-high 30’s, a decade of experience and we all know he has great hands. so basically we have a mature, experienced wr with a better skill set than any wr in the draft this year. of course we should consider picking him up. the question is would he consider picking us up? i dont think so, the leagues leading rusher and a qb who had one of the worst seasons to date? i dont see any benefits for him as far as being a jaguar.

First, what has changed about Moss since we last saw him looking like a washed up WR and contributing nothing for the Pats→Vikings→Titans? Second, Moss likely wants a SB ring to complete his HOF resume, which means he is looking at teams not named the Jaguars for 2012. Third, even if all of the teams that are much closer to a SB pass on Moss, doesn’t that tell you that he’s washed up? At best we’d be getting a player loads of other teams passed on just to be a stop-gap for one, maybe two years. We’ve done that before and his name was Torry Holt. All it did was give us one unsatisfying year of delaying the inevitable need to get a productive WR for the long term. So if your expectations are roughly 51 receptions for 772 yards, then sure, sign Moss (again, presuming he’d like to play in Jax). That’s also assuming he wouldn’t cause any locker room disturbances, which seems like a pie in the sky dream to me and every team he ever played for.

Stats aside, the circus and attitude he would bring is not even worth the Jags making such a phone call. Moss could fit with a team that already has an identity and some established WR’s. You need to have a QB who could command his respect too. He is in zero way a fit for the Jags and would be a net negative from day one. Hang up the phone, don’t take or make the call.

I’d give him a workout. If he can seriously run his 40s in the 4.3-4.4 range, I’d give him a shot AFTER we sign a couple of other receivers (such as Colston, Johnson, etc.).

If we can’t get our number 1, then we could at least check him out. He’s better than two or three of our guys we have now, but he’d be a huge risk. I’m on the fence since we probably won’t get a chance at Blackmon.

If Moss is a distraction- cut him
If he is a detriment- cut him
Not the player you thought- cut him
Washed up- cut him
Its the NFL people, you can cut anyone at anytime especially a Moss who probably will come for cheap. So what if he doesn’t work out, cut him. Some of you need to get out of your bubble and stop being scared.

You say as of late he seems to phone it in, so cut him. You say cancerous attitude, which is so cliche, cut him. You say washed up, cut him. I really couldnt care less if they signed Moss or not. All Im saying is this current and past WR talent evaluating barometer isn’t and hasn’t worked. Try something different. If it works great, if not oh well.

Your opinion, my opinion. We’re all entitled to one. I actually agree with you, more than likely it’s a waste of time. Bottomline, hit some homeruns this year in draft and FA and this is a non-issue.

My buddy, just texted me and asked… ‘If you had to run a 40 right now, what would you run?’ And I texted back, explicitly, ‘4.35 to 4.38,’

In the words of Flava Flav, “Dont believe the hype!”

My buddy, just texted me and asked… ‘if I thought I could Hook Up with Scarlett Johanson?’ And I texted back, explicitly, ‘Yes! I just did.’

Even if he is a huge upgrade, which might be overstating him a bit even with our terrible WRs, he has a long history of acting out or simply not putting for effort if the team is bad. Your basically investing in a guy who won’t be here the next year but is so talented that you have to make him a focus of your offense. I think you end up losing more then you get from investing in Moss, I’d stay away.
