Favre "certain" Moss headed to Packers

FAVRE STILL CERTAIN MOSS WILL BE A PACKER

In the process of tracking down rumors regarding whether the Raiders will trade receiver Randy Moss to the Packers (or anyone else) before or during the draft, we've re-confirmed that Packers quarterback Brett Favre is "certain" that Moss will be a member of the team in 2007.

This doesn't mean that Moss will be traded to Green Bay on Thursday or Friday, or that the trade will come during the first day of the draft.

It also doesn't mean that Moss ever will be a Packer. It only means that Favre was -- and still is -- "certain" that Moss will join the team.

It could be that Favre, through his agent Bus Cook, is privy to Randy's plan to refuse any and all overtures aimed at reducing his $9.75 million salary for 2007. The Raiders surely can't keep him around at that number, which means that at worst he'd be cut in August -- and then would be free to sign with the Packers.

If, of course, Moss is cut, the next question becomes whether he'd choose the Packers over any other team. But the fact that Favre is certain of the eventual arrival suggests to us that Brett has been talking to Randy, and that Randy is every bit as excited about playing for the Packers in 2007 as he was about playing for the Raiders in 2005.

I hope he goes! thanks for the read

[kennyrat923]

Thanks OW. I hope it works out but if it doesn't I think Randy can still play "when he wants to"!

[RAIDER50]

Thanks 0W. Hope we can something in return for him if he gets traded or cut

We might just let him go for cheap since we have to let him go anyway.

[Raiderjersey]

in green bay he better play or he'll freeze his ass off standing around.

[vegasraider26]

Who knows, maybe a Moss to GB for Rodgers + draft pick is in the works. That would mean the Raiders would have Walter and Rodgers to compete for the starting spot, which would let Oakland select Calvin Johnson with the #1 overall pick..............I could live with that. Just as long as JaMAHcus Russell doesn't come anywhere close this franchise.

I can't see Randy getting that excited to playing in GB Favre or no Favre. I could imagine Randy wanting to play somewhere warmer / closer to his home in South Florida. Work closely with Moss and other teams to see if there is mutual interest in packaging him up to one of teams closest to home (Miami, JAX, TB, Carolina, ATL, Skins, Ravens) and take what you can get if you are the Raiders. Back to the GB rumors, I hope their shared agent can convince Randy to re-negotiate his contract which would facilitate a trade to GB but I fully expect Randy to either get cut by the Raiders right before his first paycheck is due or to have him sit in the penalty box all year similar to Porter. Not trading or cutting Moss makes absolutely no sense to me but you never know with the Raiders.

as we have all said before, "JUST GET IT DONE AL!"

[K.D.]

Well i don't there is a team in the NFL that would pay Randy what we have to pay him, so he might as well buy into Kiffen's plan and PLAY...

But then again CW milked GB for a nice chunk of change, so the packers might be his only hope...
