Moss Remains a Pat
BOSTON -- Randy Moss is staying with the New England Patriots.
The defending AFC champions re-signed the record-breaking receiver on Monday to a three-year deal worth $27 million, his agent said. The signing was confirmed by the team shortly after Moss posted a message to fans on his Web site.
Moss' agent, Tim DiPiero, said the deal included guarantees of $15 million, including a $12 million signing bonus to the receiver who set an NFL record with 23 touchdown catches and helped the Patriots reach the Super Bowl in his first season with the team.
Now this is a great signing. Moss is a complete steal at $9 million per year. He is clearly the top wide receiver in the game and is UNSTOPPABLE with Brady throwing him the deep ball. If you are a Giant fan you should also be glad Randy chose Championships over money or else he would be an Eagle. If the Eagles signed Moss along with Samuel I would honestly be scared of them to give McNabb a serious weapon to go a long with Kevin Curtis. Thankfully Randy made the smartest move for him, which sucks if you are a Jets fan, but maybe Revis will be able to match him in a few years (or Brady breaks his arm ;-)
Also Monday, the Patriots signed free agent receiver Sam Aiken.
The 27-year-old has played five seasons with the Buffalo Bills with 19 career receptions for 250 yards and 61 career special teams tackles.
