fitzkek Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 (edited) Can we really expect Santana Moss to duplicate what he did last season? With the acquistions the Redskins have made in the off season, I don't see him putting up the same type of numbers as last season. For one, it's impossible for me to trust Brunell. I actually think that Portis will benefit most from them picking up Randle El. Just some thoughts. I didn't know how anyone else felt about this.

thecerwin Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Good question! I am hoping he puts up similar numbers as last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brentastic Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 No way he repeats last year, IMO. I say he falls out of the top 20, but that's just me going on nothing but hunch and the fact that I think he's hughly overrated. It would be interesting to accumulate what portion of his stats came in the last couple minutes of a game. It just seemed to me that he got insanely lucky (as did the whole Redskins team) in a few last minutes wins. Anyone feel like doing some research?

biggamer3 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 IMO Senoira will put up better stats, I'm not saying this cause i'm a Giants fan, ok i am saying that , i am kidding, he will resemble last years stats but not exceed them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpholmes Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I'm with Brent on this one. I don't consider SMoss a solid #1 fantasy reciever. A lot was luck last year. Not to mention Brunell will have 3 above average WR's this year rather than Moss. I think this will help free him up, so lots of 30+ catches. But no where near last year's numbers.

Avernus Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I wouldn't want him on my team as they now have too many weapons and I don't see anymore out of him than a real explosive WR every 4 or 5 games with the current WR's on that team....

Beaumont Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I am going to be contrarian and say he remains top-10 material ... Losing all the double teams cant be a bad thing ... and he will have a ton of big plays ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecerwin Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 He is very similar to Steve Smith in size and speed... That can't hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brentastic Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 He is very similar to Steve Smith in size and speed... That can't hurt. Yeah, but does he have the non-measurable variable that SS carries? Heart/Will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolv Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 S. Moss had his career year. I expect this year to be more of what his career average is. He certainly doesn't rate a top 15 spot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing all the double teams cant be a bad thing ... and he will have a ton of big plays ... It could also hurt him. I think he might get doubled most of the time leaving Randle El open quite a bit. Defenses would much rather be nickled and dimed down the field instead of being hit w/big plays IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip_Side Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 No way, the only thing that really saved him with FF stats was the long bombs he caught. I don't see him being near as productive as last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Long plays from scrimmage are not consistent from week to week. Santana Moss LIVED off of long plays. He won't have as many this coming season as he had last year. His numbers will be lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Definitely not good enough for you to trade your 4th rounder for, when you have a chance to get a RB, which is what you really need. Of course, the guy you are trading with has made a living of talking you into whatever he wants....... Oh well, It's too late now........

yo mama Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 (edited) I've always liked Moss, predidted last year that he'd succeed where Coles failed as a Redskin, and I think he'll be a solid FF contributer again this year. But I think we'll see a bit more of Portis and Cooley this year, and Brunnell (assuming he shakes the funk he crept into in the 2nd half of last season) will have even more added receiving options this year, compared to last. I'd snap up S. Moss as a prized #2 WR, but I think he'll likely get drafted before someone like Housh. And I'm not prepared, at least not at this point, to reach for Moss before before Housh. Though, if either is available 55+ picks in, I'd be stoaked. Edited June 14, 2006 by yo mama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliaz Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 He is very similar to Steve Smith in size and speed... That can't hurt. that's what I say all the time but all the haters out there still wanna bash him simply becaue he is on the redskins. I say that S. moss will get 1350 yards and 9 tds this year.

XXXXX Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I don't see Santana being as productive as last season, he is not like Steve Smith (other than in stature/speed). Moss is far more inconsistant than S.Smith, which where-in lies his biggest problem. Even if Moss does produce the same numbers, he will kill you in fantasy. Lets take last season for example, of his 9 TDs; 7 came over 3 games. That means the other 13 weeks he had 2 TDs, which will kill you because he will have his killer weeks when you are benching him for being terrible. Not to mention 2 TDs were in the last 6 minutes vs. the Cowboys (which shouldn't have happened; at least that 2nd one). Santana might be able to stay in the top 20 after the year is said and done, I don't see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
