DRAFT RUMOR: ISSUE #8


NO MOSS!!! NO MOSS!!!
This rumor keeps resurfacing over & over again. I don't think there is much truth to it either. But, it's a great example to show that teams have to build themselves through the NFL DRAFT & not trade away their future by swapping picks for players. Is it sometimes warrented? Sure, but I myself am not a great fan of it.
Regardless, here is the latest on the rumor that wont die, courtesy of http://www.footballsfuture.com/news/2007/02/packers-unlikely-to-trade-for-moss.html.


Packers unlikely to trade for Moss
Despite rumors and Favre's public request, the Packers now seem unlikely to trade for Randy Moss. First, there has been almost no internal discussion of Moss by the Packers. Second the Raiders are now rumored to want a second round pick for Moss. It seems very doubtful that Packers GM Ted Thompson, who typicaly looks to acquire draft picks and build through the draft, would be willing to let go of a second rounder for a 30 year-old receiver with a huge contract and a ton of baggage.
