Just about everyone knows the team is going to want one Vet on the team to not only fall back on but to help develope the young guys. The key is will the Skins resign Moss at his old age? He's breaking down often injured and losing his speed. The best they could hope for is to make him the #3 WR.

Buress on the other hand has proven in the past he's a #1 WR and could be the #1 WR while the young guys are developing and learning the offensive scheme. Would Buress be a stop gap? Yes, which is exactly what the team needs until the young guns are ready to step in and take over.

Do I have this right? You want to get rid of Moss, sign Plax, and stay away from Vince Young?

Bingo. No seriously, I'd prefer to keep Moss but the WCO is predicated on tall WR's which the team went out and picked up in the draft. I understand Moss wants to be here but what it boils down to is will the team/coaching staff think he's worth bringing back? Especially for whatever price Moss will want.

I look at both Moss and Buress as being tied due to age, Moss injuries of his past and Buress being out of play or a couple of years trade off. Buress is taller and healthier and has more potential to come back as a temp #1 then Moss does.

My issues with Young are me confusing him with the Raiders QB who was using drugs. Young I just don't think is a very good QB and doesn't handle pressure well either on the field or off, then there is the fact that no matter who is brought in they will still be at a disadvantage having to start from scratch learning the playcalls and scheme the whole while we have Grossman who already knows it best and Beck who would have a one year lead on whoever is brought in. So picking up Young would be a waist. I'd rather keep McNabb who would also have a better knowledge then anyone else brought in.

Let's keep Grossman and Beck, build up the OL and next year look for the future QB. Then the Rookie QB would have a better OL to protect him and the supporting cast will be better and have a better understanding of what they are doing in order to help said Rookie QB
