Vic Ketchman, of Jaguars.com, reports the Jacksonville Jaguars have placed their "franchise" tag on SS Donovin Darius. He will earn about $5 million in 2005 as the team's non-exclusive franchise player. While he could sign an offer sheet with another team, the Jaguars have the ability to match any offer given to him or the other team would owe Jacksonville two first-round draft choices as compensation.

why Minnesota, if they do want to deal Moss away, wouldn't choose the Raiders is beyond me. Charles Woodson and a very high 1st rounder for Moss? Not a bad deal...

I agree especially if you consider they could very well get DJ with that pick. Woodson and DJ would change that D a lot. But, supposedly talks are heated with the Ravens and Jets so who knows. The Ravens could easily come up with a better deal if they want to.

I actually almost find it difficult to imagine Moss NOT ending up in a Ravens uni but with everybody staying put lately, who knows.

Sure, he'll end up in a Ravens uni. Then he'll bitch and moan about being traded to Baltimore like some certain people.

Unlike that certain other person, Moss likes wearing purple because it makes him feel manly so he'd accept. Plus I'm pretty sure he and Ray Ray are in the same gang. I'll try and confirm with Mort...

Moss will go no where. With the ownership in limbo and the fact that the guy that wants to buy the team says he wants Moss to stay expect no movement on Moss. When it first came out I thought Moss might move but I don't see that happening with the limbo state of the Vikings.

Just put on the Moss speculation on the shelf. At least until the new owner is accepted officially by the other owners, if he is.

[cardiac cats]

the deal was: moss to raiders for 7th overall pick(or whatever the raiders have) in the draft and napoleon harris, also they would throw in another draft pick* didn't say which round.......in my opinion that would be sweet for minny- they could then draft mike williams or edwards with that 1st pick
