I'm gonna get thrown under the bus for saying this, but I wouldn't be opposed to taking a one year flyer on Owens for a one year flyer. I don't see what we could possibly lose by doing this. Imagine pairing Moss and Owens up across from one another with Brady at quarterback. I could easily see Owens coming in there and behaving for at least one year while he tries to close his career out on a good note. This is Moss' last year with the team and it would probably make him happy to have his buddy and another stud receiver to take the attention off of him and Wes a little. If the O-Line holds up injury wise, and Brady improves even a little from last year, I don't see how this team would be defensed. Essentially it would be a no-lose situation in that if Owens does start to act up, we could give him the 2005 Eagles treatment, deactivate him, and keep him away from the team. I'm also taking into account that this year is likely going to be uncapped. With all of this in mind, I don't see why we wouldn't.
I won't throw you under the bus.
FWIW I agree. It just could work.
