Darren Howard for Randy Moss

saintsation · 02-21-2005, 07:06 PM

What are ya'lls thoughts on the saints trading Howard for Moss??? If you think about it, it would be the most explosive offense in recent years. Haslett approaches Benson and says, "This s my final chance, you get me this guy and I promise the playoffs." If we do not make it , I will resign. The Vikings get what they desparately need in a high profile defensive tackle and you also make the deal even more sweet by throwing in Stallworth. The Saints had the opportunity to draft Moss and, like many times before, drafted someone who is not even part of the team now. I am not in dreamland when i propose this transaction, I am someone who is taking the mindset of recent division,conference, and SuperBowl Champions. What are your takes?

We\'ve already got one Leon, why not take on another. Maybe one will cancel out the other, or take some of the heat off of each other. People wouldn\'t know who they wanted to talk about more. I wouldn\'t mind seeing it happen at all, because I do think it would give us a very explosive offense, providing Moss\' injury doesn\'t become a permanent problem. Don\'t think you\'ll ever see it happen in NO, because we had a chance at him already and passed, but, stranger things have happened. I don\'t think Benson would want to open his checkbook...and Horn would have to go, because you would have to keep AB. You need someone to get the ball to him, and AB could definitely do that. All he would have to do is drop back and throw it as far as he can and let Moss run under it. It would be kinda cool to watch.

No thanks..Moss would destroy the Saints, why you think that the Vikings want to trade him, he\'s one of the best in the NFL but they had enough of him, there is a very good reason he\'ll be traded

No way, man. Howard may be injury prone the last couple of years, but when he suits up, the guy is all about team. He played DT some after coming back from injury and I don\'t remember him griping about it once. Moss doesn\'t go over the middle, admits to not playing hard on every play, and already thinks he\'s better than Jerry Rice ever was. Not to mention that hair. Whooooooaaaaaaa!!!!!!

I\'ll take the team player anyday.

First, there\'s not a snowballs chance in hell of this happening..

Second - after having to purge the team of players like Dale Carter, Kyle Turley, Grady Jackson, and Albert Connell -- I\'m not eager to sign a player who comes with a lot of baggage!

I just hope Moss doesn\'t sign within our division. Moss a Falcon? That\'s a scary thought!

You don\'t have to worry about Moss being a Falcon because he would not want to share the head lines with Vick. Moss is all about Moss and could care less about winning a Super Bowl unless he could be Bugs Bunny and play all of the positions. Tampa Bay maybe, but I doubt it cause they are still to fresh off of Keyshawn Johnson. I am not really sure if there is any team that will give up to much for this guy, I guess Lou Holtz and Bobby Bowden knew what they we\'re doing when they ran him off in college after all. Moss is athleticly gifted but is way to self-centered to make it on any team.

No!! Resign Horn, keep stallworth, trade pathon and draft another WR late.

Moss -- the guy is a prima donna who doesn\'t play well with others -- As much as I think T Owens is a loudmouth I would take him any day over Moss. He really showed his heart coming back to play in the superbowl -- and had a great game at that. Not that we have much team chemistry but he would destroy what little we have. If we trade Howard I would want a solid defensive started at DT, LB, CB or Safety.
