To quote from the immortal Anchorman movie, Brett is 60% sure that Moss will be signed 100% of the time by the Packers.

The whole thing about the "Moss Rumors" that has me excited is that the rumors haven't really subsided. TT came clean about the Raiders offer but didn't say he countered. Normally he doesn't address this stuff at all. He has been trying to be quiet about the whole thing. I think someone did "leak" something within the organization and everything else has been damage control. They have the same agent and that in and of itself could make it work. Normally we talk about rumors and they go away. This one hasn't.

My personal belief is that Randy Moss will be a Packer come draft day because for how much everyone has done to say "it isn't going to happen" and how many times the rumors keep coming around, TT is hiding something.

Ted Thompson has to do something to at least appear as though he's helping to make OUR 'O' competitive.

or does he?

I was listening to espn radio "The herd" (sp?), and he said Tampa Bay was willing to give up to 4 draft picks to move up 4 spots to take CJ. Personally, I think it's either flat out not true or TB is blowing a smokescreen about their love for CJ hoping a QB like Russell will drop to them. There's so much mind games and misinformation this time of year. If the trade did happen though Al Davis might be willing to let Moss go for a lower draft pick since he'll have plenty from TB anyway. It probably won't happen but I've seen big deals go down in the past, the Herschel Walker trade comes to mind. We'll see in 10 days.

When has he EVER done anything to bolster the offense? Seems to me all he does is trade or release starters and replace them with never wases an rookies! Not that I think the o-line is bad but he only signed K-Rob and that was only because he has a woody for the guy.

My response today Merlin on another thread:

I too agree that most of the Mocks are wrong about who TT is going to take. Lynch and/or Olsen are everybodies choice because it is by far the biggest "need" that the Packers have right now - RB and TE. Along with that, these guys will probably be available when the Pack picks. Makes sense to the common outsider, but not to some Packer fans because we know how TT works.

Although, I agree that a WR is needed. God knows that from the injury history the past couple years. I still think TT is going to go with defense in the first round. Who that will be is anyone's guess. But if you follow TT's history, it'll be the best player available - probably a CB or DE. I really think that if Revis is available at 16, TT will take him.


I tend to agree with this post.

TT won't draft for 'O' in round one unless possibly he trades down. If he goes with the 16th pick he'll elect to draft on 'D'.

Best player available on HIS board available to build OUR 'D' for the future.

I have never believed that he's in the let's do something to support Brett Favre camp. There is too much evidence to support that belief since he became our future. One day Brett Favre may reveal his true feelings about Ted Thompson? I can't believe they will be positive.

On Ted Thompson and support for Favre and OUR 'O':

If Ted Thompson makes a move soon to acquire Randy Moss then that would be a huge surprize to me. I don't expect that will happen.

Based on that belief and evidence, or his past inactivity on the offensive side of the ball. Why would he try to bring in an impact player on 'O' when that may only inspire or impact Favre's play positively and sustain his desire to play?

Many of you may disagree with me, but that is my position, one that would be very difficult to change now. As I maintain. Based in TT's lack of incentive to help OUR team on 'O' since he was hired.

Seeing this has been frustrating to me as a Packer fan. To use one of the greatest Packer players of all time this way, insults the great tradition and history of the Packer organization.

The worse insult is to Brett Favre who always gives so much. To other's on OUR 'O' who game in and game out can only try their best against the odds.

In really feel that this is Brett Favre's final campaign Packer fans.

So enjoy Favre's final games, as much as Ted Thompson and those behind his hiring and policy's will allow.

Then there is this news of a possible chance of a re-union bet. Cullpepper and Moss.

CHIEFS TRYING TO KEEP CULPEPPER FROM RAIDERS?

A reader has floated an interesting hypothesis regarding the delay in the trade of quarterback Trent Green from the Chiefs to the Dolphins.

Could it be that the Chiefs are trying to slow down the Fins' acquisition of Green so that the Raiders will have to continue to wait for a shot at Daunte Culpepper?

It's widely believed that if the Dolphins get Green they will cut Culpepper, who is due to earn $5.5 million in salary this season. The sooner Culpepper is cut, the sooner he can be signed by the Raiders. And that gives Oakland more time to get him ready for the 2007 season.

Maybe it's only a coincidence, but keep this fact in mind: When Green received permission to shop himself via trade, the sole limitation that Chiefs G.M. Carl Peterson placed on the discussions was that Green could not talk to AFC West teams. Since the Chargers and Broncos have their starting quarterbacks in place, the restriction surely was intended for the one other AFC West team that is still looking.

Meanwhile, another reader pointed out to us that perhaps Peterson is holding out for a second-round pick for Green because the Fins held out two years ago for a second-round pick from the Chiefs for cornerback Patrick Surtain.

what the hell is a raider jersey ad doing at the bottom of the page??

Bill Micheals (for what his opinion is worth) was saying last night on his talk show that the deal is off.

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

The Raiders have cut G Brad Badger and DE Lance Johnstone, creating $1.6 million in savings. - PTF


Maybe their still trying to keep Moss?

[ND72]

IF Brett Favre has any knowledge of the Randy Mosss situation, the only person it could come from is from Bus Cook...who happens to represent both Favre and shares representation for Moss...so maybe Cook is saying something...who knows. My serious feeling, is the Raiders are going to end up taking Calvin Johnson, and then move Randy.

[KYPack]

Did anyone catch that blurb from NFL Network?

they were saying that basically the Raiduz HAD to cut Moss to get any cap savings. if they trade him, his bonuses will hit their cap, but if they cut him, they'll save 7 -8 million on the cap.

I thought this was a pretty big story, but it was just presented matter of factly by NFLN.
