Many LOLS will be had if its the Giants who claim him off waivers and start him next week.

Molden is a disaster thus far, in the early going this move looks mad sketchy.

Let's see what the plan is going forward in the secondary.

So we cut a declining Bodden, who we have already paid for, in order to play Molden and Adams?

Bodden has now cleared waivers. Nobody claimed him and so the Patriots are on the hook for his salary.

He is free to sign anywhere he wants, now.

Where ever he ends up, I expect him to play well. Not a smart move by BB
IMO.

If any team wanted him to be a starting corner, they would've claimed him. Now he's stuck in a situation where he doesn't want to be a backup and isn't good enough to be a starter. Soulds like Adalius Thomas all over again.

He's really stuck. He will get backup money for being a backup PLUS the money from the patriots for being a starter.

He doesn't want to be a backup though. That's apparently a big reason he wanted out.
