Randy Moss figures to get plenty of interest once he clears waivers, but fitting him into a new system will present a major challenge for a team that acquires him midseason.
"When the Patriots traded for Deion Branch, that was a different situation because he was already familiar with their terminology and their quarterback," said Gil Brandt, former Cowboys director of player personnel. "If a guy like Moss goes to the Dallas Cowboys, or wherever else he may go, he's got a whole new terminology to learn and a new quarterback. That makes it more difficult. It's like going to algebra class in the middle of the year.
"Still, he'll draw interest. Let's say you're Tampa Bay and you're 5-2 right now. You've got a chance to be a playoff team. You might claim the guy."
Here are seven teams with good reason to consider Moss:
Dolphins. He would pair nicely with Brandon Marshall, and claiming Moss would keep him from the Jets and Patriots.
Patriots. He knows the system and certainly professed his love for coach Bill Belichick and Tom Brady on Sunday.
Bears. Jay Cutler could use another target, and the Bears are in a tight NFC North race with the Packers.
Jets. They were shut out Sunday, their receivers played poorly and they do like big-name players.
Rams. Think of what Sam Bradford might be able to do with Moss, especially on a fast track indoors.
Redskins. Maybe adding Moss could keep Donovan McNabb from getting benched in the fourth quarter.
Seahawks. Like the Rams, they can win the NFC West, and Moss can make a difference.
