The guy is AWESOME, but ... Let's face it --- too much baggage for the character of our team. His production would not overshadow his shennanigans ... There's a reason why he is still retired.

I look at the character and locker room cancer thing like this...it seems to me like Payton over the years is usually quite willing to put up with 2-3 "head case" players on the roster at any given time. Most of his teams over the years are made up of these really solid "character" football guys, but he'll always have room for two or three productive, talented oddball screwballs on his team, the guys who come with baggage. But he doesn't ever let them control things or get too big headed, and it's never more than just two or three of them on the team at a time, they never get enough critical mass to implode the locker room. You had Joe Horn; you had Shockey; Bush could totally be a bit of a head case or a diva sometimes, you had Hargrove (total head case), you have Hartley who has been a ton of baggage and problems on and off the field, you have Rogers who is kind of a loose cannon etc.

And it almost seems to me like Payton always has room on the roster for 2 or 3 of these "head case" or flaky type guys each year, but that he doesn't ever let their number get higher than just two or three of them at a time -- and I swear it almost seems like it works out sometimes, that when one of them leaves, that's when he brings in another head case, at a totally different position! So I don't know if we have one of those "head case" spots open on the roster right now, but who knows, maybe with Bush gone and Hartley out, we do have room on the team for another head case, in a different spot on the field, and Moss would fit right in LOL

I think its now or never for Moss and he knows it too.

Personally I detest the idea, but from a business/fielding the best possible team stand point I can see it being a consideration. We'd be a better team with him in the line up than without. I do think that Devery/Meachem/Moore and Graham still make for a quality group of weapons though and we wouldn't step back massively if we had to do this. We need Meachem to become Colston 2.0. He's been floundering with flashes of brilliance/stretches of disappearance for too long.

If they do it I understand. If they don't, I respect it more.

The best thing going for Moss was his year in NE.

No reason to think he couldn't do the same in N.O.

When we sign him, Green Bay will know who's coming to town in the NFCCG

Devery is killer. Meach and Graham are dangerous - With Moss out there, he would open up the field and take the coverage deep. I think "hoopla" aside, he would be a great addition. But it seems like a fallacy at this point.

You'll never see him or TO in the black and gold.

I guess today we find out something...

Read it was Juan Kincaid that reported it; if it falls apart, talk about bad reporting that WWL will hold someone accountable...
