Randy Moss for Steve Smith

im being offered in a PPR league, 6 for TD, 10 yards per point, Smith (CAR) for Moss.

last year, i laugh at this, but im wondering, are they gonna let Cassel start taking chances or is he gonna remain conservative?

also, it seems that his favourite target is Welker.

i dont know what to do, need help.

tough call.

you're basing it too much on what you saw last week I think.

Moss had 6 catches 116 yards and a TD in week 1. The bulk of it, including the TD, coming from Cassel.

I think it's way early to cut ties with Moss yet.

teams have always doubled him. same goes for all great receivers though. smith will get doubled too. he's the only deep threat on his team. DJ Hackett is good, he's not that good though.

Keep Moss for sure. Smith does come back but Moss will get more touches. The whole game vs. the Jets they had a conservative game plan. Week #1 was great, week #2 not so good. Keep him

yeah, but just seems Smith runs better routes and doesn't have to have the ball thrown deep to him like moss does... JMO

Wait at least on week to see what Smith can do with Delhomme. I think with Delhomme back Smith will have phenominal numbers this year. Moss will get his there is no doubt about that but wait to see what Smith does

i'd wait a couple weeks and see if the genius that is belichick can gameplan something to get a better rapport with Cassel and Moss.

very favorable matchup this week for moss and the pats too at home against the Dolphins. Carolina going into Minnesota. might want to wait it out for a little bit.

Go Smith. Delhomme centers his focus on Smith when he is pressured...and there will be good Ds coming at Caro.

Steve Smith will have chips on his shoulder due to his antics...so he will be breakin tackles and makin every completion a possible TD. And he is the end zone threat between 25-50 yrds away.

Cassel will take time to gel with Moss. By then, defenses will be set and Cassel wont have time to get it to him.

With Minnesota's bad secondary (cept Sharper) now is a good time to get Smith. Miami D will have Cassel moving in pocket...and I dont think he will be able to look for Moss other than quick slants and screens.
