What a night eh? The Randy Moss trade rumors and reports sparked an unbelievable response from fans and media members.

From checking around on Jay Glazer's initial breaking news, it's clear the Vikings and Patriots are discussing a trade but nothing is done yet. The two teams are talking but the Vikings and Moss apparently had not begun discussions earlier this evening.

That's the catch. Moss is going to want a multi-year extension with sizable guaranteed money. ProFootballTalk reported that he wants $9 million or more per year.

Vikings owner Zygi Wilf has said he and the organization are "all in" in their pursuit of a Super Bowl title this season so it makes sense that the team would go after Moss in an attempt to bolster its struggling passing attack.

Brett Favre has said this is his final year and his desire to play on the same team as Moss is well-known. Adrian Peterson is off to a terrific start and the Vikings defense might be the best in Coach Brad Childress tenure. But with Sidney Rice sidelined after having hip surgery, the passing game is a serious concern and Moss would bring an instant vertical threat.

But if the Vikings give Moss a ton of guaranteed money, what does that mean for Rice and linebacker Chad Greenway, two players who are standing in line for contract extensions and hefty raises. And Peterson also is in line for a huge payday, which likely needs to happen next offseason.

It will be interesting to see how this story unfolds the next 24 hours or so and what the Vikings are willing to offer and what it takes to bring Moss back to where he started his career.
