The Jets, interested in Randy Moss

According to multiple league insiders, the interest the Jets have in Moss is twofold. One, it could help them weather the very real possibility of losing at least one of their three free-agent receivers: Santonio Holmes, Braylon Edwards and Brad Smith. Two, it would keep Moss from returning to the Patriots, whom he is known to want to re-join.

The part about keeping Moss away from New England makes the most sense. Moss is clearly worth more to the Patriots than he is to anyone else.

In a rivalry as close and as heated as the one between the Jets and Pats, it makes sense. I don't think Moss makes the Jets any better -- their offense is miles behind New England's, Mark Sanchez has neither a rapport with Moss nor half of Tom Brady's ability, and it seems like, at best, a crapshoot on whether or not Moss would show up and play hard. But if it keeps a weapon away from the Patriots, it's probably worth doing. Yahoo.Sports
