Steve Smith or Randy Moss?

Normally Steve Smith and Randy Moss would be tailed by Terrell Owens but obviously it is Steve Smith and Randy Moss alone in their own world of elitivity. There are alot of premiere receivers in this league but these two are like Manning and Brady, just a cut above the rest. I really don't know who I would rather have.. But I'm leaning towards Steve Smith because there are certain things you can do to hender Moss a little bit but Steve Smith is like trying to take away Jerry Rice. Almost impossible. Who would you rather have.. Steve Smith or Randy Moss? TWO FUTURE HALL OF FAMERS

Moss is a better deep field weapon and red zone target. Smith is comparable down the field though (that's saying something considering we're comparing him to Moss) and a much better short and intermediate target. The only guy I can think of who plays the short game better than Smith is Anquan Boldin.

No offense to Calvin Johnson -- the kid is very good but Steve Smith and Randy Moss are in the league of Jerry Rice, Lance Alworth and Don Hutson

Get Johnson a competent QB and a supporting cast and he'll be one of the best all time, I'd put money on it.

I don't like Moss' attitude, so I still put him behind Johnson. Moss is a rare talent, but he quit in Oakland, looked like he wanted to quit after Brady went down and just doesn't have the heart I'd want in a franchise WR.

Moss's attitude has changed, and it was a blessing for him to get to NE because he needed that kind of support and background around him, good clean God-fearing guys but Moss is still Great. But Steve Smith to me is Jerry Rice, and let me tell you why. Allthough like I said both Moss and Steve Smith are canton-caliber.... You just never see that quit in Steve Smith, never. You've seen it on occassion from Henry Ellard, James Lofton, Randy Moss, Terrell Owens and even Cris Carter at times.. But Steve Smith just has that Rice-like quality in him of burning fire kind of like what Barry had that you seen in Walter Payton.

    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
