My guess would be that his performance may not be worth the bs the team would have to be subject to. When he admits that he doesn't play 100% on national TV, that might be a good clue that he needs to go flip burgers at McDonalds.

Probably had a lot to do with 2 factors:
1) The continuing problems, on and off the field, that he showed in Minnesota
2) The trading price was a lot more than the Falcons were willing to give up for what they were getting
I thought it was interesting that for all the hype Moss gets about his abilities, when the time came for him to be traded there were not that many teams interested.

Because Arthur Blank knew that if he had Randy Moss, then Michael Vick would entice him to come to his bong party and "light up a few". Who would he have traded for next? Willie Nelson? Cheech & Chong? The Cast of Half Baked?

in the event that they are able to get Moss for a third around %. he's well worth taking a flyer on. If Johnson falls to them or they are able to easily commerce a number of their modern receivers then they actually ought to get Calvin, yet do not blow the full draft basically for him. If neither of those paintings out then they'd desire to sign Drew Bennett who's the huge possession sort receiver Vick loves throwing too. Vick hasn't shown precise at throwing to swifter receivers.

He is a trouble maker who doesn't really try hard on the field. Look who he has been in Oakland for a HINT of who he is. Remember WHY the Vikings got rid of him? I can't blame the man for not wanting the baggage that is Moss.

They do not need two headaches on the team. It is hard enough to keep Vick's nose clean now, how much harder would it be with a malcontent like Moss?

because of Randy Moss attitude and because the Falcons already have a bunch of receivers that are capable of doin well

He is lazy and has a bad attitude. He is well past his best years. He would still cost a ton of money. Not the guy Id build around.

he's lazy and has a bad attitude. he sets a bad example for younger players and has caused problems on the vikings and the raiders. there are worse players to have but his attitude doens't outway his talent at this point.
