Randy Moss: Randy Moss to clear waivers?
Randy Moss - WR - MIN - Nov. 1 - 7:39 pm et
NFL Network's Mike Lombardi predicts that Randy Moss will clear waivers if the transaction becomes official Tuesday.
Should Moss go unclaimed by all 32 teams, he'd become an unrestricted free agent while also having his full $6.4 million salary guaranteed by the Vikings. Moss could then "double dip," tacking on whatever earnings he'd be able to muster on the open market. NFL Network's Joe Theismann and Boomer Esiason both also believe that Moss will clear waivers if he's cut Tuesday. Nov. 1 - 7:39 pm et
Just saying...there are a few people who think he WON'T be claimed, too.

I'm not one of them. Maybe I don't quite understand how the waiver wire works but if all of the teams don't want to take on his salary for a Top 10 WR that stretches the field that a defense has to account for, then there are some pretty dumb teams out there. Unless the entire NFL blackballs the deal so they can pick him up on the open market for a discount, I don't forsee how this would happen.
