The Patriots and free agent wide receiver Randy Moss agreed to a three-year, $27 million contract on Monday, reports NFL Network's Adam Schefter.

The two sides are reviewing the contract, which is expected to be signed today.

Moss, 30, was an unrestricted free agent after the Patriots elected not to designate the 10-year veteran as their franchise player.

In his first season with the Patriots in 2007, Moss set the NFL single-season record with 23 touchdown receptions, while catching 98 passes for 1,493 yards.

Good. Keep him out of the NFC.

Hard to imagine a wide receiver coming off one of the 2 or 3 greatest seasons of all time and then making less money than Asante Samuel.

According to profootballtalk.com, the Eagles offered Moss more money than the Patriots did, but apparently he decided to stay with the Pats "at the wire". i don't know if this is true or anything, but it's certainly interesting.

I like the terms of this deal. Other than that, not much else to say.
