Randy Moss thread

In my best Chicago White Sox impression......

HE GONE!!!!!!!!!!!

The guy was cheating the Niners long before the Super Bowl. Go back and watch his crappy efforts. There were many more.

we got the best he had left but the lack of effort in the super bowl killed it for me. i could really care less about what he said about being the best and i could care less that he upset jerry rice,, who was really being a media whore. but lack of effort in the super bowl is a criminal offense, he and ginn can be easily replaced by younger and better players

cc, you recall the list of guys we started with at WR? Man, I thot, "wow, this is just overkill". It wasn't . I was darn glad to see moss out there, but like you, would really like to have seen more SB effort. Wth 14 picks, I would expect us to land 5, maybe 6 guys at WR in late rds. If we took someone early on, fine too. What really irks me, altho it may be baalke and JH.s plan, was AJ. If he comes thru this yr like baalke thot, then we end up with essentially 2 #1s this yr, as opposed to wasting # 1 last yr.
Just goes to show I don't know much about football, I guess.

Moss until SB did a good job. Now we should be looking at a project, if not a bonafide WR instead of moss. Could we end up with him again on roster. I spose so. What was a killer was manningham. That dude taught our wRs how to play the game, starting with getting off LOS. His loss hurt as bad as kyle and hunter's.

mario was really good on the reverse plays. we did not have that weapon once he went down and i think the team had no confidence in ginn to do that job. a strong bodied wide out with good size should be taken in third our fourth round. i have had it with these first round wide out picks. my hope is crabs repeats what he did, mario and kyle will come back strong , we get a nice wide out in the draft and maybe just maybe a nice wide out free agent. now that leaves jenkins. i have no hopes for him so whatever we get from him is gravy. if we are having the same discussion about him on august as we are having now,, well the coaches will have to swallow thier ego and pride and admit it was a bonehead pick

Moss IMO should be brought back for a 1 yr deal,

1) He has done wonders for Crabtree

2) Manningham/Williams are coming off big injuries

3) That leaves us with unproven Jenkins, Lockette, and Chad Hall.

4) If Moss isnt retained we need to either draft a WR in rounds 3-5, or sign a vet for cheap to play for a contender.

5) No way in hell are we taking a WR at 31,34, or 61.

we have more pressing needs early in the draft than a WR. Manningham/Williams are both capable starters and Jenkins needs to have an opportunity to get real playing time. So are need is a #4-5 guy, not a 1st/2nd rounder bro

How sure are you that both of those guys come back 100%? How sure are you that AJ isn't a bust? That it isn't more than than freshman growing pains? Steel sharpens steel. I think we draft another WR and see who gets pushed out.

Remember Moss and Ginn are likely gone.

okay but how can AJ prove himself if you waste his talent leaving him as the 5th WR. 1st round picks need to be starters bro not depth. If he has a bad year then yes next season get another starting caliber guy. And also if Moss leaves I think we need to bring another guy in, but a cheap vet like Givens (STL) or Hixon (NYG)

If he would have said, "I like this team and I want to be back next year," I'd feel differently about him. But, he didn't. He said he didn't like his role on the team. Why does this team need a semi-productive receiver who is not totally committed to the team? That just doesn't make sense to me. Goodbye, Randy.

1. Kaepernick did wonders for Crabtree, not Moss.

2. 15 draft picks this year, plus free agent wide receivers. Brian Hartline and Greg Jennings are both excellent options.

3. See number two.

4. Not the case. The offense has evolved. Wide Receivers will want to play for the 49ers knowing they'll get the ball.

5. Why not? Crabtree is two years away from free agency.

Niners making it clear Moss won't be back

good riddance

I was pleasantly surprised with how positive an influence he was in the locker room this year. But if he doesn't want to be here, good riddance. You'd think a 36 year old player without a ring would die to play for a contender. Apparently it's more important to Moss that he gets his 60 catches. He won't find that role anywhere. He hasn't been a productive player for 4 years now.
