Santana Moss, FA Will be a Mess..............
At least one WR is anxious for the labor dispute to end so that he can re-sign with his team. I wonder how many other guys also feel just like he does in that they don't like being without a deal and not knowing who they'll be with or with any team at all. There may be less guys changing teams this year than we think.

The Washington Redskins have been searching for wide receivers to go with Santana Moss for years. Now, they run the risk of continuing their search for complementary receivers without having Moss.
That’s because the 32-year-old is going to be a free agent when the labor dust settles. So the Redskins run the risk of losing Moss, who despite the dysfunctional offense last season had 93 receptions for 1,115 yards and six touchdowns.
If Moss has his choice, he will not be going anywhere.
“It’s gonna be a mess,” the Moss said of the free agency process on Sporting News Radio, according to Dan Steinberg of the Washington Post. “I’m just hoping everything goes as planned, man. I just want to be signed. I’ve never really been out there when it comes to controversies and all that stuff, so I don’t want that dealing with this process. I want it to be you’re gonna sign me, sign me and let’s go.
“You know, I don’t want to be sitting out there and they’re saying, ‘Well, this guy, we want to chop here.’ Nah. Redskins, take me off real quick, and let’s just go on ahead and play some football. I don’t want to be out there and having to say I’ve got to go travel to this place and that place. But dealing with the business, you never can predict what’s gonna happen, so I’m just looking forward to the process, and I’m gonna be rock and rolling when it’s time. When they tell me where I’m at, let’s go.”
