I'm never ready to move on from players that have been that good for us & on top of that don't cause any problems for the team. I get GTripp's point he's made in several other threads; that Moss' or any vet's spot on the roster prevents another youngster from being groomed. But I look at it this way; we have one of the weakest wr corps in the nfl & Moss is still 1 of the 2 best.
Maybe Hank changes that quickly or a new FA or draft pick does as well. Still, the past 2 years have shown that Shanny will keep a trusted vet WR on the roster, e.g. Galloway, Stallworth, Anderson. Maybe Gafney is the only one for that spot, but I think Moss still has value for the team if he can get over his drops from last year.
I see the point though, Hank, Paul & Gafney are pretty certain to make it, if they only keep 2 others that could put Moss into some tough competition. Armstrong, Anderson & Stallworth aren't likely to be here unless there's training camp injuries.
