Re: Skins Signed Randle El

thats 1 season. we are not talking about a guy that has had an incredibly productive carreer and as a result has a big ego (In Santana). Plus, we need to take the double teams off him...i think he'll take not having the double teams over "i want the biggest contract so i can get 2 catches a game cause they are double teaming me"

Do you know him personally?

If you set a team's receiving record you should be the highest paid guy and in today's nfl, agents use circumstances like this to help themselves and their client.

he signed a deal. everyone comes to the skins looking for money and he got above market at the time... then he went apeshit on the field. at the time it was a good deal for moss who willingly signed. the skins were smart to lock him up for 7 years.

the skins don't add money to current deals. when they made an exception for lavar, it was just to shut him up, and obviouly he never saw that money.

maybe if they're making close to vet min like portis or walker when the put up 1500 yard seasons. he could hold out, but i believe the skins would hard line, and right now there's depth so it wouldn't hurt nearly as much as if we had no one else. Plus holdouts tend to lose fan favor very quickly.

If nothing had been done at the WR spot Moss would have be coverd by the D's best if not doubled! So the big winner is Moss with EL and Lloyd coming on board. The next big winner is Portis so that CB and S have to stay back. Not keying run only! Next a big winner is Burnell because he has all kind of weapons but comes with pressure to now get the job done. Last Al has never with KC had this kind of fire power. One more winner all of us!!!!!

Re: Skins Signed Randle El

also, for what it is worth, the eagle fans are saying because the 10 mil is not up front it is a pretty good deal for both sides...

Re: Skins Signed Randle El

when Moss came here no one, including him, could have predicted those numbers. He got a pretty fair deal when he arived. I am sure it will be addressed in the future but i don't think he is going to have a big problem this up comming year. If moss pulls another season like last year why would we have a problem locking him up for a while? That is a big if, for all we know the numbers could be pretty well spread out.

I don't see a problem this year. You don't think Drew Rosenhaus will try to capitalize on that? You are right, I am in fantasyland on that one...

WOW!!!! Dude our WR corps just went to like possibly the best in the league. Randel El brings SOOO much more to the table too. KR/PR (see ya Antonio, that way we can keep Thrash), and someone who can run the Pass/Pass we used to run with Gardner. Man this is HUGE!

Re: Skins Signed Randle El

Randle El is the only other guy out there who could effectively run the wide receiver screen close to the way Moss does. Add to this the fact that he will be trying to make, the not the first, but the 3RD CORNER MISS!!! Moss had to fo it against the opposing teams best corner.

How can you prepare for this offense now? Did I mention we already have a pretty good running game?

right now the colts and rams are better, cinncy and arizona are close. BUT we got 3 good WRs 26 or under, unlike the colts or rams.

Re: Skins Signed Randle El

Actually, what has me more excited is what this will do for the running game. With this many deep threats, do you think teams can afford to pull the safeties up to the line? They can't even cheat to one side of the field or the other. Look at what Saunders' system did for a relatively small back with Priest Holmes in KC. Portis is going to have so much real estate to run through that he may press a 2,000 yard season this year. Of course that is contingent upon a solid O-Line.
