TO "should" produce more then Randy Moss...but who really knows until you see how their individual teams will use them. This is a perfect fantasy trade in my opinion though. Both house-hold names, you're taking a stretch on who'll do better, plus you get to poke fun at the other guy if your guy does better. So in a short statement i'd say, go for it! ;)

If you have Moss, do it. TO will produce more.

Basically the decision is who will be the more productive passing QB, Brady or Romo?

NO BRAINER. Make the trade before the other idiot changes his mind.

Not really, relies more on who has the better talent around him and Moss is the answer. So I would take TO, since he will see the ball more often.

Wade phillips is a run first coach...so is bill-a-check....randy moss has ben watson and stallworth...and possibly welker or caldwell if they run a 3 wr set...
dallas has a 1-2 punch with their rb situation. Not to mention terry glenn and jason witten...then patrick crayton in a 3 wr set....Now you were saying who has the better talent...I think it's very even....

Id get Randy Moss, T.O. has Romo throwing to him and Moss has Tom Brady. The only good receiver on the Pats is Moss and the Cowboys have Terry Glenn to split receptions with T.O.

Wrong. Stallworth is good when healthy, and Welker is a very good slot receiver. Watson is a very athletic TE, and David Thomas should see more playing time this year.
Brady spreads the ball. A lot. From a fantasy standpoint, go with T.O.

I'm thinking that is where most people stand with Moss. Just a lack of trust...But he still has the ability to be the old Randy Moss and could have a break out year with a super bowl bound team.

I would take T.O. here.
1.) Even though Glenn starts opposite him, the Cowboys have very little depth beyond that ... and Glenn hasn't played yet because of nagging injuries, and at Glenn's age, it could mean he misses games throughout the year...if that happens the #2 receiver is Patrick Crayton. At that time T.O. becomes priceless.
2.) N.E. seems to spread the ball out more on offense than any other team in the NFL. Maybe it is because they have never had a receiving talent like Moss, but I think it is more a function of their system.
3.) Romo loves throwing to T.O. In my opinion T.O's numbers last year would have been higher if a.) Parcells would have drew up plays for him (as Philips is already doing) and b.) If Romo played the whole year -- there was no doubt Glenn was Bledsoe's go to guy, followed by Witten, then T.O.
4.) T.O. is the only WR that Dallas has that excels within the red zone (and TE Witten obviously) so I expect lots of TD's from T.O. again.
Overall, I just see T.O. as the one with higher potential (he had 1,200 yds and led the league in TD's last year) and has less downside -- we know he can excel in Dallas, we have no idea what Moss will do in NE.

Thats what makes it so interesting....

Some more information:
1.) T.O. had 152 passes thrown to him last year, 2nd only to Chris Chambers' 153.
2.) Even though Dallas is seen as primarily a run-oriented team (especially under Parcells), they were 5th in the league in passing yards (239.8 / game) while NE was 12th (212 / game)
3.) Dallas scored 425 points last year (4th), NE scored 385 (7th)
Again, we obviously don't know what NE's #'s will look like with Moss there, and there are some questions about Dallas (new coach, can Romo succeed when team have film on him, etc).

NE didn't have that great of a passing game last year...they had to rely on Caldwell, who started as many games last year as he's done in all his 4 NFL seasons with San Diego, and Watson who has proven to be a very reliable player. Hell, Kevin Faulk was tied for 3rd in receptions for them with 43. They finally have the weapons to go to now. Randy Moss as a possession reciever, Donte Stallworth for comebacks and fly routes, then finally Wes Welker and Ben Watson to work the middle of the field. Now you say NE plays the run...well they do, quite a bit. That was with Corey Dillon though, a proven NFL veteran. Now they have 2nd-year-man Maroney, who I must say Bill-a-check is expecting way too much of, IMO. I can just see a much more elaborate passing game this year, with Randy Moss standing out as the go-to-guy.
