Randy Moss And The Rams? Must We Go There?

I planned just to ignore the matter. Impossible. The NFL media cycle abhors a vacuum, and Randy Moss filled it with his desperate pleas for attention online lately. St. Louis Rams head coach Jeff Fisher got dragged into the mix, asked about Moss' comment that he would like to play again in 2012.

Randy Moss? In St. Louis? Really? Let's get to the bottom of this and open it up for a little late night discussion.

Star-divide

Fisher told the Post-Dispatch that he holds Moss in high regard, having coached him for a brief period in 2010. Fisher even called him a "terrific teammate" and said "he did a great job in our locker room."

He also left the door open, however slightly, for facilitating Moss' return to the NFL. Specifically, Fisher replied when asked about the possibility of Moss in a Rams uniform, "At this point it's too early to say."

It is too early to say because Fisher, the GM and staff are just now beginning the process of evaluating the current roster. Moss, for his part, has yet to be seen by coaches in a workout, though he says he can still run a 4.3 ... he sure didn't look like he could during his last season in the league.

Fisher has a reputation, a well deserved one, for being able to work with, um, high maintenance players. In drafts with the Titans, Fisher has been rewarded for his willingness to take chances on players other teams would avoid because of personality concerns and character questions.

But Randy Moss at 35? I'm skeptical. I would like to hear your thoughts though.

If we want a fast receiver with “diva issues” we can go get Desean Jackson. He’s younger & faster

by EddieP on Feb 16, 2012 8:35 PM CST reply actions  

I agree

Let’s forget for a moment that’s it’s Randy Moss and whatever comes along with that. The bottom line is that when you rebuild a team, you don’t start with 35 year old players. You save that roster spot for someone who can help long term. Jackson fits that bill, Moss does not.

by RamHock on Feb 17, 2012 7:05 AM CST up reply actions  

No

I don’t know if he’ll have diva issues, pretty sure AARP would reject his claim if he becomes a diva (he’s that old)

Can still run a 4.3

The best deep threat in NFL history
Throw 4 deep balls to him and he’s guaranteed to atleast catch one ( Can yous say that about anyone else in FA?)
If he checks out and the other FAs don’t come AND Lloyd leaves, I would love for Moss ot be on one side and Blackmon on the other. You guys are acting like we have a lot of options. Last time I checked we just finished as the worst team in the NFL (Yes the Colts could have beat us).

that's exactly I what I said. I'm sticking with it.

Seeing how Salas finished the season before his injury, he’ll improve a lot, he was a rookie, not an AARP member like Moss.

Funny thing is that I hated Salas at the start, he’s improved a lot. But he’s a slot guy, Moss is an outside WR

I like all of our year 2 pass catchers potential over Moss.

I know there wasn’t a lot of stats to base this off of but Moss’ age and the short offseason for rookies make them more attractive than Moss imo. Moss is said to be a #3 receiver on a new team and we have plenty of that.

by jmo53 on Feb 16, 2012 10:31 PM CST via Android app up reply actions  

Yea I can see you dont want him here

But saying that any wr on this team is anywhere near his level is ludicrous..

I said potential.

We will not win a Superbowl with Moss. Why waste a roster spot on him with the cap room available. He is not the mentor the rooks need anyway(see Wayne). Think youth. We got a couple years to go. Draft and sign young guys that will be here a while.

But fisher said he was a great teammate and wasn’t bad in the locker room either. I think he could be a nice mentor to Blackmon..

I'd take Blackmon 4 or 6

I guess we will see what Fish thinks of him in a couple months. If you want to look at the rookies stats last year you gotta look at his last years stats too. I just think there’s better options out there.

most of roster spots at WR are a waste.

Gibson, DX, Pettis, and who knows about Lloyd. I mean with what we saw last year why the hell not? Old ass moss cannot be any worse than gibson.

I say grab a #1WR in FA which Moss is not

and get another WR in the 2nd or 3rd round. Wright, Sanu, Jeffrey, D Jones, McNutt.

Give these guys someone to take pressure off them and I bet they get better.

I hear that for the rookies, but in Gibsons case I feel we have had enough time to see what he can do.

He has had sooooo many opportunities to shine and it just hasent happened. I am hoping we only take a WR this year in the first or second round. The 3-4 round WR picks have been pissing me off for the last few years. A FA WR and WR from rounds 1-2 would be great IMO.

by jmo53 on Feb 16, 2012 8:53 PM CST via Android app reply actions  

Why not?

Y’all have mentioned several other players who are around the same age and older than Randy. However not too many will bring the high-profile status that he can bring, something that has been lacking around here since the GSOT days. He know he will get paid, but not anything crazy because he took a year off. Hell, a Randy at 75 percent would be better than anything on the current roster minus Brandon (maybe). Also, I don’t remember him causing too much ruckus during his brief stint with the Titans while Fisher was there even though he was a non-factor and buried on the sidelines at times, which says a lot about his respect for Fisher (plus). Get another good free-agent receiver, plus Blackmon for him to mentor, and that may be the motivation for him to play hard for his last ffew years. Of all players to come play out the last few years of their career as a Ram, Randy Moss would definitely be a the top of my list.

Hey I'll take him

I don’t want to lose any cap space on him without protection but, you can’t say your done with the 4 pillars and then rule him out. Give him a short leash and lets see what happens. The rest of the locker room has to be filled with men, not boys so he shouldn’t have the ability to be a cancer.

Again. With a long term #1WR like Stevie

why not let the younger guys develop while filling other holes and see what we have. This rebuild will take at least a couple years. We need a #1WR, not depth.

by jmo53 on Feb 17, 2012 10:16 AM CST via Android app up reply actions  

we need both

see what happened to our CBs last year because of the lack of depth. We have to get that #1 and build depth; look what happened in Tenn last year, Britt goes down, they lose the #1; Andre Johnson went down for some games in Hou – gotta have depth no matter what stage of rebuilding you’re in.
It doesn’t have to be like the Pacific Ocean depth, but we can’t go from a #1 WR to a #15 (on some teams) in one injury.

Jeff Fisher said that he was a great teammate, and didn't hurt the locker room at all.

I would take him in a heart beat. He would be cheaper then the rest of the high class receivers, and if he is motivated can help us. We really don’t have a lot of cap, and with what we have, we would be LUCKY to get any high top receiver. To expensive, even if we cut Smith. We would only be able to get a receiver and maybe one okay free agent. Moss would be cheaper and we could get a DT or OLB with more cap space to work with. And by the way, some of the people that are complaining about him having an attitude, are the same people that BITCHED the whole season and offseason about 4 pillars.

So in a shorter sentence, I’ll take him in a heartbeat if the price is right. (1-2million)

I can see a team close to being Super Bowl contenders possibly going after Moss. But the Rams aren’t close…YET! So why bring Moss in? Does a 2-14 team really need a guy like him? To go 4-12? I say start from the ground up. Draft a young WR with potential. Or sign a younger WR free agent like a DeSean Jackson, Vincent Jackson, Mario Manningham, Etc. They’ll be around to help the Rams become a winner. Moss won’t!

I'll use the same excuses you guys give Moss

Desean is going to get franchised, Vincent is getting up there, isn’t fast, and mario manningham is another #3 receiver, we need a number 1. Sorry guys, with our cap space, you guys act like we have 30-40 million cao. We don’t.

The reason that the Rams won’t sign Moss is because he was completely ineffective in a Titan’s uniform and this was two years ago. How much hippie lettuce has Moss smoked in the last two years? Fisher doesn’t want any part of an aging Moss.

Let's not even discuss this.

Please?

I’m sure he ran a 4.3 with a stiff wind at his back with 12 hours of rest and a week or working out in his first sprint of the day.

Put him in a game and I guarantee you’ll see him take off plays (as usual) all the while laughing to the bank with his last major payout.

Best wishes Randy, but sry, face the music… you’re not the same Randy Moss you once were.

Bring him in for a private workout

Rams brothers, I was initially opposed to this but we may not have too many options out there because of the salary cap and things may even get worse if we cannot resign Lloyd.

I would bring him in and see how ready he is (physically and mentally, i.e. ready to compete). I would then fully trust coach Fisher’s decision. He knows the guy, he thinks highly of him in the locker room. Moss can catch, he may have lost a step but if we cannot get a #1 WR in FA because of the cost and Moss can come here for 2 or 3 million, I would totally do it. If Lloyd leaves, I would get Moss (if we are convinced he can contribute), draft OL and WR (or viceversa) with our first two picks.

Go Rams!

Lots of teams take risks on players, sometimes thy work out and sometimes they dont, but at least your taking a risk to find out. I hope this new FO has some balls. Draft a young WR early to grow with Sam and sign a FA even if it means a cheap moss.

I wouldn't mind Moss...

But only if he came cheap and if we picked up another wide out like everyone else is stating…

So whoever wants to talk great about Moss:

Moss 2010 + 2011: 16 games 28 Rec 393 yrds
Salas 2011: 6 games 27 Rec 264 yrds
Amendola 2010: 16 games 85 Rec 689 yards

Pretty much same amount of catches for just less yards between Moss and Salas, slot WRs have a smaller yards per reception than outside WRs. Danny puts him in his place.

You wanna compare our ousted guys?
DX 2011: 10 games 26 rec 431 yards

Conveniently left off DX's TD's.

Which are two. And what the stats don’t tell is that Randy Moss was virtually always double teamed. That makes things a lot easier on the running game, and means some receiver isn’t doubled. It’s one of those things we’ve been really missing, someone that has to be doubled so we can force mismatches elsewhere.

That someone can be found in FA or the draft.

Not at Denny’s using their senior discount.
