Randy Moss (pitching?)
While controversial wideout Randy Moss has been filling the headlines this year, he certainly didn't fill up the box score this Sunday. Moss was held to one catch for 26 yards in his Titans debut, a career debut low for the well traveled receiver. In fact Moss historically has some of his best games in his first week with a new squad, averaging 122 yards and at least 1 score in each game. To be fair, there is still a chance Moss gels with the Titans - he has only been there a week - and quarterback Vince Young should be back for next weeks game against the Redskins. What Moss and his fantasy owners should be worried about is how Randy is likely to become a major decoy on the field in the Titans offense. With Vince Young and Chris Johnson in the backfield, Coach Jeff Fisher isn't going to change the game plan to fit Randy Moss. He knows what they're good at, and thats running the football. Moss can still be effective stretching the field, taking that extra man out of the box and hauling in the occasional deep ball, but if you ask me, his days of monster numbers are behind him. At least for the 2010 season.
Fantasy Advice:
The fact of the matter is Moss is still a big name, thus he still has some legitimate trade value. I would recommend trading Moss as soon as possible, the worst thing that could happen is waiting and watching his stock fall after a few unproductive weeks.
