BREAKING NEWS: 9ers sign Moss 1 yr deal

[Bemular]

"Randy likes what he can do for the NFL, doesn't like what the NFL can do for him" - via Conference Call

Hmmm

"It was really a no-brainer for me to come and play for the 49ers."

Winning just changes everything.

Pozz, as the official Spokes person of the Randy Moss to San Francisco advisory board of the past 8 seasons, you have my word it will all be alright

Now I hope that the official Spokes person for the Don't Bring Randy Moss to San Francisco advisory board of the past 8 seasons gives their word that it will be alright. That would be quite the assurance.

Moss catches passes from Jim Harbaugh

Jim looks like he can still sling the rock!

 

[MHSL82]

I really hope Peyton Manning is the biggest Moss fan on earth. If Moss is bait then I love the move.
"Come on and get in the boat fish! Come on and get in the boat fish fish!"

So... you're hoping that Drekeeper is Peyton Manning?

 

[-AC-]

What, JJ Stokes wasn't available?

I'm just kidding. Worse case scenario, he can be cut at any time. Best case scenario, he actually missed playing and comes back with enthusiasm and something to prove.

That said, I hope we still have our options open and look to draft for the future...

 

[Bracus]

If he really is motivated like he sounds he is, than this could be huge for us.

Hardly surprising but this is from Mike Clay:

Alex Smith's average depth of throw over the last 3 seasons is 7.8 (8.1 in 2011). NFL average is 8.8.

Now we perhaps have someone and hopefully another to help boost that number.

Point Moss made more than once: He's misunderstood by the sports world at large and loves and has a passion for football ...

I wonder what happened?

 

[Bemular]

I wonder what happened?

Yeah, good question. I sensed Barrows tweet was a little terse - perhaps he'll share in some back channel and it will leak out..

 

[Bemular]

I wonder what happened?

This just tweeted:

"WR Randy Moss got through first challenge with 49ers by keeping composure as ESPNLA radio interrupted him about 6 times during call"

Feedback, recordings, commercials drowned out everyone, including Moss.

Thanks Mike. Sounds like my interpretation of Barrows tweet was correct.

I like it. Just hope this isn't the only WR they add outside of the draft. Sure hope he makes teams pay for loading up 8 in the box.

Nice Post - I agree completely

Was there any thought to coming back late last season? Did the 49ers talk to you about the playoffs when they had so many injuries at wide receiver?
Moss: "At the beginning of last season I was ready to still play and I was waiting on that call. But at the same time I didn't really know how things were going to go. So when it got late in the season, I just decided to go ahead and give my body a little more rest. And once the season ended, I decided to come on back. Like I said, I'm very passionate about what I do. And definitely football is something I love to do. So for me to come back to the game of football . . . I'm ready to go. I think you can hear from my last workout with the Saints and here today with the 49ers, I'm ready to get back into the game of football. I think I can still play at a high level. So I look forward to learning the offense and getting with the group of guys in the locker room and learning what my role is going to be on this team. Like I said, I accept the challenge, and I'm ready to bring the fans out of their seats."

 

[jayviabay]

Do you know Alex Smith at all, and have you spoken to him throughout this process?
Moss: "I don't really know Alex Smith. But I look forward to working with all the guys on the team."

I guess it is safe to assume the Smith deal is done but we can still fantasize the moss signing was to attract manning...
