I think Moss was in rare health in 2010, which allowed him to be effective late in the season and hit marks in receptions and yards and touchdowns that he hadn't hit since earlier in his career. Also putting a lot more "good" tape out there in the process.
Which caused the Redskins to vastly overpay him that offseason.

I don't think they
vastly overpaid him in 2010, did they have a slight soft spot for their own talent? I would agree that the guaranteed money suggests that.
We just see Tana differently then.
Tana has been the primary WR for most of his tenure as a Redskins without much help from his WRs corps and consequently teams could double him as they saw fit and he has still been a productive WR.
2010 was an example of what Tana could do in scheme that doesn't allow him to doubled easily.
This past season he broke his hand and imo that limited his production (and the production of the passing offense in his absence) moreso then his age.
Prior to the signing of Garcon/Morgan I would have thought that Moss could have continued near his 2010 level of production if he maintained the same role within the offense.
