Where Will Randy Moss End Up?

Filed under: , ,

Randy Moss cutThe Vikings reportedly cut Randy Moss, giving the other 31 NFL teams a 24-hour window to place a claim on the outspoken wide receiver. (Update: Jason La Canfora of NFL.com reports that Moss was not on Monday's waiver wire, so he would not be eligible for a waiver claim until at least Tuesday.)

Here's how the NFL's waiver process breaks down: once a player is placed on waivers, the team with the worst record in the league at that time -- in this case, 0-7 Buffalo -- gets the opportunity to claim him. If that team passes, then the process moves to the team with the second-worst record (Dallas, 1-6), then the third-worst (Carolina, 1-6) and so on. New England, at 6-1, has the league's best record, so the Patriots would be last in the waiver order.

If any team claims Moss, it would be responsible for the remainder of Moss' 2010 salary -- approximately $3.4 million. If no team claims Moss, the Vikings would pay that remaining money and Moss would be free to sign with any team.

Here's a look at some of the teams that may be interested in Moss, in order of waiver priority (the Vikings would have the No. 9 spot, but do not factor in):
