Title: Diamond in the Rough: Santana Moss
Post by BarnabyWilde on Jun 3^rd, 2003, 2:58am

Here is a guy that intrigues me. Will he be the number 1 guy in New York, or will he be the number 2 behind Curtis Conway? I for one think he will step it up and put up some good numbers.

I am thinking 1050 yards and 7 td's, plus 2 return td's...

I think he's going to bust, for some reason. Not that he's a bad player, I think he's great. But I think Conway is the #1 there and surprise surprise, Chrebet comes back and has a spectacular year as the #2. Pennington has been staying after throwing passes to Conway and Chrebet, and no mention of Moss. I think he's a better asset on the return field more than anything.

690 yds, 4 TD's, 3 return TD's

I think with Coles leaving they will change the offense a bit. They want Moss to be the guy to justify the trade of Coles, but i too think COnway will be the #1. Chrebet will be the #3, but prolly have #2 stats since he i sthe 3rd down and TD go to guy. I like Moss alos and he will need to do some return duties with the loss of Morton.
I give him 750 yds, 4-5 tds and 2 return tds. If Conway gets hurt his value and #s will go up. I think everybody WANTS him to step up, but the reports are that he is just putting in time and doing nothing "special". Too bad, like i said we want him to step up. Maybe 1 more yr of learning will do it and he will be the guy next year. I hope so. I don't have him in any l;eagues, but have him as a late sleeper. Until i read something different he wont move up on my board. There are too may other guys...Marcus Robinson(IF)/doubtful, Streets, Lelie, both GB WRs, Josh Reed, Mcardell all i think could should get better #s. Just a thought and just my view.

Conway should be the #1 guy, followed by Chrebet (who may not get a lot of yardage, but should post solid "#2" numbers in the TD category). Santana's numbers should definitly improve, but I'm not sold on him as my "#2" guy... not yet. I would rather take a chance on an ageing proven veteran then an unproven prospect. Of course, it all depends on the type of league you play in...

Santana Moss will prove to be an above average special teams player (now that Chad Morton is gone) and a below average 3rd receiver.

Just wanted to link this relevant thread in with this one:

http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=55;action=display;num=1052973771.

There is quite a bit of discussion on Santana Moss on this other thread, including my [smiley=smileytrash.gif] in-depth take... for those interested.
