Favre certain Moss will be a Packer

[pbmax]

Denver also won two Super Bowls while cheating on the cap. Careful who you wish to emulate.

Of the $13M, we'll have to use about $5-6M on rookies. That would leave $6-7M to sign FAs, extend our own players (e.g. Corey Williams), and go into the season with a buffer (which you need). No, there's not a lot of room for Moss--although if he came to Green Bay, you can be sure he'd have a restructured deal.

Come on Harvey, there is plenty of room to sign Moss. Denver figures out how to do it every year. Structure is all that matters.

Chester, your playing aleter ego might have been into the middle school social scene, but Chmura strictly hangs out with Wooderson at the High School hang outs.

I do not normally post this type of gossip, but since this speculation is continuing, I will add my own rumor:


A member of my bowling team, who also owns a engineering firm, was at a town meeting near Waukesha and afterwards went to lunch with some of the supervisors and met up with Mark Chmura.

According to my friend, Chmura said that he was informed by current members of the GBP, that the Packers and Moss have a deal in principle on a three year restructured contract and that a deal was in place for a trade with the Raiders, but would not happen until Draft day and some other contracts were finished.

Wether this has any shred of truth, I do not know........

It's funny you mention Chmura because I have a cousin who works at a Wisconsin grade school and he over heard a 12 year old girl talking about how Chmura showed up with a case of beer to her slumber parter with her other 12 year old girl freinds. He was hitting on everyone of them, bragging about how well he knew Brett Favre and how the Moss deal was already done.

Now, I usually don't put much weight in what a 12 year old girl says, but maybe their's something to it. Weird.

Just kidding Woodie!

"Pretty solid sources" in the Raiders' organization reportedly say Calvin Johnson is atop the club's draft board by "a clear-cut margin."

This comes from ESPN's Len Pasquarelli; ESPN's Chris Mortensen said the same in a recent online chat. Pasquarelli contends the bigger debate is whether JaMarcus Russell or Brady Quinn is the top QB prospect.

Well he definitely should be at the top of th list.

I really hope Favre said it.. and i really hope that it comes true.. it might put this packer team on the offensive side to the top.. i live in Superior, Wi and i hear from a ton of Viking fans constantly and they are so afraid we will get him because they know what probably will come from it.. favre needs it and so do the pack.. he will play beyond this year with moss..

Unless those sources are wearing a track suit and ladies glasses, then they aren't talking about the right draft chart. The only one that matters is the one in Al Davis' noggin.

PFT had Davis in love with Russell and the staff in love with Johnson.

Of course, both pieces could just be posturing.

Everything is about posturing right now...2 weeks until draft day! C'mon hurry up!

LL2, I like the posturing of your avatar...

As for the Chmura rumors, even if he is talking to players, why does anyone think Nick Barnett or even Brett Favre knows anything? I doubt that TT would share anything, and any leaks would be speculative since even TT doesn't know what's gonna happen.

As someoe said, only Al Davis can guess and have some idea, and he probably doesn't even know yet what he's gonna do.

He does look like he's been dead for a couple years, doesn't he though?

LL2,

plus. . .

the real possibility that Brett Favre will play a role in the acquisition of Randy Moss by restructuring his contract as well.

The fact that Favre and Moss have the same agent in Bus Cook could play a big role as well in this latest rumor.

I'd love to see it happen just for the upside it offers the Packers.

Re: Favre certain Moss will be a Packer

I found this on PFT:

It's been a while since the rampant rumors linking Raiders receiver Randy Moss to the Green Bay Packers died down. But that doesn't mean that the issue is dead.

A source with knowledge of the situation tells us that Packers quarterback Brett Favre is "100 percent certain" that Moss will be a Packer by the time the 2007 season starts.

The only problem is that the Raiders and the Packers haven't been able to strike a deal for compensation. Our guess is that the logjam will break once the draft approaches; otherwise, any picks necessarily would be deferred into 2008. Plus, if the Raiders choose to take receiver Calvin Johnson with the first pick on April 28, their leverage in subsequent trade talks will surely drop, since the chances of the Raiders letting Johnson get anywhere close to the malcontented Moss are slim and none.

"A source with knowledge of the situation tells us that Packers quarterback Brett Favre is "100 percent certain" that Moss will be a Packer by the time the 2007 season starts."

What bothers me about this latest rumor is that.

A source with knowledge.

I'd prefer to read a quote fr. the horse's mouth. Especially when that horse is Brett Favre.

I'm not sure where I read it, but someone called Al a "Sleestak". Very funny reference to an early Saturday morning show in the 70's. I actually got the DVD for laughs a while back....


"Marshall, Will and Holly on a routine expedition....."

I wonder how many will even know what the hell I'm talking about.....


Anybody?
