But I'm watching John Clayton on ESPN point out that Randy Moss isn't close to a deal with the Patriots.

Now that guy would actually be worth paying $10 million a year to bring to the Saints.

Thoughts?

You've dismissed and argued all off season with me over not wanting to bring a receiver here... but now you like the idea of having Moss here. I'm not trying to be mean here but that's what you call a hypocrite. It's absolutely insane to go sign or trade for a WR, but I guess Moss is the exception.

Sorry but you had that coming as I'm sure you knew it would.

Anyways... I was a big proponent of trading for Moss while he was a Raider. I would love to have him opposite Colston. Our offense would be sick.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

Moss would be the exception because he is a HOF receiver that just broke the single season TD reception record.

I just want to make clear I'm not talking about a WR. I'm talking about the best WR in a generation who is still in his prime.

I'm so hurt. Ouch!

I would have never thought about it because I figured that the Pats would work out a deal. But according to the reports the game plan seems to be to let the market determine his price, then decide if they want to meet it.

Anyway if I were negotiating with Moss, I'd remind him that Payton was the OC when they suffered that 41-0 beatdown in the 2000 NFC championship game. I'd follow up with the fact that the Saints were #1 in passing in 2006 and #2 last year. Finally I'd point out that with both Colston and Reggie on the field it would be difficult for teams to simple double cover Moss all the time. Then I'd show him the money.

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
