Randy Moss to be Franchise Tagged?

If the Eagles can pony up $4.5 million to franchise LJ Smith and his one 2007 TD, than the Patriots have to consider the $7.84 million they'd have to dish out to do the same to Randy Moss a relative bargain. Moss is a stud, but an aging one. Franchising him limits New England's risk heading into 2008 and should they lose him, which could still happen, they'd be very well compensated. It makes sense for the Patriots, but how will Randy react to the news? My guess is poorly. What do you think?

Welcome to the offseason, my friends.

It's going to happen you can count on it!

Do you think anyone would pay the compensation? I don't, but I wonder what NE would prefer. One more year of Randy Moss, one of the best WR's in the game or two 1st round picks? I almost think teams franchise players in hopes another team is desperate enough to take that player off their hands, no matter how good he is.

Especially the Pats...If someone else signed him after a tag, I think they would be alright with it. Business is business

i agree with that... keep Randy around one more year and let him go get his paycheck...

moss stays and its so long Samuel

they would be stupid not to keep Moss.

Yeah, Moss getting the franchise tag is a no-brainer for sure!

MOSS STAYS. BRADY STAYS LIKE THE DUKIES, PATRIOTS WILL RISE AGAIN......
