Why? One malcontent for another. At least, maybe just maybe AH could be turning it around. Moss has a history of being a prima donna everywhere he's been and I would consider him more of a problem than AH.

He doesn't really "want out" though. He said he wants to be there, but he doesn't think they'll bring him back.

to quote eddie murphay " what have you done for me lately." randy moss puts points on the board. AH puts his foot in his mouth.

Trade DT for a 3rd to 5th round pick, and next year use one of our top picks on AJ Green. That dude is a total freak of nature. Skins need to wait this thing out and draft young talent next year. Shanny and Allen are doing the right thing by not jumping the gun to sell picks for Vincent Jackson or one of these other potential locker room problems.

if we want AJ Green we better plan on losing out cause he's going in the top 3 picks. It would be nice though. Don't worry, solid value can be had in Julio Jones and Jonathon Baldwin and a few other stars that could fall to us. Still need OL and DL help too though. a CB wouldn't be bad either.

I will be disappointed if the 1st and 2nd round picks aren't used to get younger on both lines. I could also accept drafting an athletic OLB to play opposite Orakpo, but drafting a WR has proven worse than a crapshoot for this organization. I had hoped that Thomas or Kelly would have emerged this season, but having seen zero progress in three years, we should address WR with a proven free agent before making another draft mistake at that position.

I wouldn't be disapointed at all if we didn't use either on O or D line.

Julio Jones is just as good as AJ Green. He just plays in a run first offense with the two best RBs in the nation. I would love it if we got Julio Jones.

I wouldn't go that far...but he is really good too...and hell, he's already ready for the NFL...he takes tons of plays off.

I would. Trade spots and he gets the same production. He isnt as fast as AJ but just as good. He just plays in a run first offense with the two best RBs in the nation. While AJ is the ONLY option for UGA.

A lot of folks say next year is going to be very deep at WR, so we still might be able to get a stud.

Well since it's very obvious the team is not going to go after a proven player, unless they decide to make a move on VJ, they might as well throw another draft pick at another unproven player who has a 50% chance of turning out like Thomas and Kelly.

Nobody is giving up a 3rd, 4th or 5th round pick for Thomas.

Agreed 100%. We'd be lucky for a conditional 6th. I say keep him for return/ST duties and as a 5th WR. No real value in a trade in my opinion.

Don't underestimate Al Davis.
