Default Moss is running in New Orleans today

Only the stop-watch knows...but I hope he's back and runs 4.30 like he's insisted he recently has, can, and will.

hearing from multiple sources re Randy Moss workout today he lit it up. Was told he ran about 45 routes and "looked like the old Randy." -- Jay Glazer (@JayGlazer)

From what I gather all parties were pretty floored by his workout. Probably didn't expect him to perform the way he did -- Jay Glazer (@JayGlazer)

Yeah we'll see how it goes. A year off will make him look like Michael Jordan with the Wizards.

Size, speed, hands, long arms, body control and leaping ability. It sounds like he will certainly be a starter on opening day for someone.

Quote:
Let’s get this straight: We’re supposed to believe Randy Moss — who celebrated his 35th birthday Monday, mind you — can run the 40 faster than Julio Jones (4.39) and A.J. Green (4.48) did at the 2011 NFL Scouting Combine?

“I believe the guy,” Evans said. “I trained with this guy in the offseason. He is a nightmare to work out with. Many guys came in and out of those workouts, and they never showed up again. This guy knows how to get it done.”
He's only started two seasons in his entire career where he came into the season with anyone at all doubting him.

His rookie year. He caught 17 TD's with a backup QB. He led the Vikings to a 15-1 record. Highest scoring team in NFL history.

His 2007 season...off a horrible year in Oakland. He caught an NFL record 23 TD's on a perfect 16-0 team that blew almost everyone out in the regular season. That team broke the '98 Vikings NFL record for points scored in a season.

Only guy in history to be on the roster of both a 16-0 and 15-1 team ... and he was far and away the leading scorer of both teams. The two highest scoring teams in NFL history.

Every other season -- he started the year considered atleast one of the top 5 WR's in the sport. Most years he came in as the games #1 rated WR.

Whatever he has left...you're going to see the possessed Moss from '98 and '07 who is bitter as hell and holding a grudge against the world. He was furious after the '98 draft. His coach and GM in Oakland said he was washed up and couldn't play anymore after '06.

I cannot blame them for at least working him out. They will probably lose both Meachem and Colston, and this is a potential bargain option.
