DBAHO Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Minny are idiots if they do this. Just think Bears fans, sign a RB in FA and a DE and u guys r real contenders, although I dunno if Moss is really needed when u already hav Booker, Terrell, Wade and Gage.

Lance Briggs. Peanut. Alex Brown. Mike Brown. Zoom. were pretty tight on defense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Umm, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Bears may consider Reggie or Roy Williams at 14, I'd gladly give up the guy we would be cutting (Holdman) and what would possibly be Roy or Reggie Williams for a proven stud like Moss.

Rodman... Moss I would still hate if he was a Bear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnB Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I for one, am against this trade. Moss is not the kind of personality you need on a young team like the bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I know da Bears really need a DE as do my Cowboys, and Marcellus Wiley from the San Diego Chargers was released from his contract today. Definitely a player worth goin afta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Wiley will definately get some attention. Tony Brackens was also released by the Jaguars today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdue129 Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I swear when I was home for SoxFest the Chicago radio was talking about the Bears getting rid of Holdman if they could. I'm not up in town too often, did anyone else here this? If there was any validity to it, I say go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holdman has already said his goodbyes to friends on the team. ------------------------ I doubt Minny would dump moss to an in conference rival. ------------------------ I doubt moss could deal with being on the same team as Peanut, who owned him. Randy would be complaining after every practice that he was open on every play, but Pnut would have him locked down tighter than Fort Knox.

The Bears are just holding onto him for a bit longer hoping they could deal him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Apparently the Fins are a player for Moss.... Link Dolphins reportedly talk to Vikings about Moss trade By ARMANDO SALGUERO Miami Herald MIAMI - The Minnesota Vikings recently called the Miami Dolphins to gauge the receiver-starved team's interest in trading for Randy Moss, according to several NFL sources. The Vikings deny they have made the overture and strongly deny that Moss is even on the market. Miami general manager Rick Spielman declined to comment on the matter Tuesday. But three sources confirmed the Vikings have been calling teams to test the interest for Moss, who caught 111 passes for 1,632 yards and a career-high 17 touchdowns in 2003. While the Vikings are only gauging the market, the call to Miami was serious enough that actual compensation for Moss was discussed, according to one source. Another league source said the Dolphins didn't make an offer but rather mentioned some possibilities of what they would be willing to give for Moss. Miami cornerback Sam Madison and defensive end Adewale Ogunleye were discussed, according to the league source. The Vikings have been dealing for days with reports that Moss might be on the trading block, and on Tuesday vice president of football operations Rob Brzezinski, who years ago worked for the Dolphins as the staff counsel and salary cap specialist, said Moss will remain with the Vikings. ``Randy Moss is not for sale,'' Brzezinski said. ``No, we're not trying to trade Randy Moss. People have tried to acquire Randy in the past. Everybody knows that the New York Jets called last year.'' However, in a similar situation, the New Orleans Saints strongly denied they would trade Ricky Williams before they consummated a deal that sent him to the Dolphins in 2002. And Brzezinski stopped short of saying Moss never would be traded. ``Nobody is not ever for sale at any price, but the price would be awfully high,'' he said. ``It would take a lot to get the best player in the NFL.'' Two No. 1 picks? ``No, not even that,'' Brzezinski responded. The Vikings are also believed to have talked with the Arizona Cardinals about Moss. Former Vikings coach Dennis Green was hired this offseason as the Arizona coach. A source close to Moss said Tuesday that Moss would not mind being traded but would prefer to play for the Jets, where he could be reunited with quarterback Chad Pennington, a friend and former teammate when both played at Marshall University. A Minnesota source said if the Vikings decide to trade Moss, they could trade him anywhere they want because he has no trade exclusion clauses in his contract. Moss, 27, signed an eight-year contract worth $75 million in 2000. He has five years remaining on his deal, and trading him would mean a substantial salary cap hit for the Vikings, but they are capable of absorbing that hit. Minnesota is scheduled to be approximately $33 million under the salary cap today when free agency begins thanks to the use of ``likely to be earned incentives'' by Brzezinski. The Dolphins' need for a star receiver is inarguable. Last week, the team restructured Derrius Thompson's contract, told receiver James McKnight he would be cut and has made no secret that free agent Oronde Gadsden will not be re-signed. That means the Dolphins will enter the start of free agency today with one proven receiver - Chris Chambers - on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I think Moss to da Jets is more likely. They need a big receiver to go with Santana Moss, 1st round pick could do it, sign a FA CB like Woodson to help on Defense. I've also heard John Abraham coukd be had for a 2nd and 3rd rounder, definitely a nice pass rushing DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I know the guy is a superstar and all, but he is nothing but trouble. I really wouldn't want him on the Bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
