You probably won't agree, but I'm starting to think that Santana Moss, glorious as 2005 was, is an average wide receiver in this league who's had his peak year. I'm losing faith that he is destined to be part of a Redskin team that leads us back to contention.

There is a lot of truth in your statements...but while he did play in 14 games last year, how many games was he on the injury report??? (also, not like he had a good passing attack last year, Brunell was hurt most of the season only throwing 10 yards down the field)
Same with this year in terms of injury. When healthy he is a great WR, however, he's never healthy. I applaud him trying to work through injuries, but the guy is a piece of glass, and I'd rather have someone with a little less talent but can be reliable than someone that is amazing but is only 100% for 1/4th the year.
So I will disagree with your comment about him being an average WR, he's not. But when you factor in injuries, then I will agree.
