Re: I give the deal a 'thumbs up'
Pats only gave up a 4th to get him and then used him for 3 yrs and now got a 3rd back. This makes it pretty obvious they were not giving him a contract at year end and he was going to be available in F/A. So instead of getting nothing for him they get Minny's 3rd rounder which is better than the 3rd round comp pick they would probably have gotten because it can be traded.
Funny. I share those exact same thoughts. If Minn really wanted him, seems like Pats could have held out for more. From Vikes view, at this point, Moss is one year high-priced rental, however.
