In return for Moss’ services, the Patriots will receive Minnesota’s third-round pick in next year’s NFL Draft.

For a New England team that struggled on defense last season, this is certainly anything but welcome news. Bodden started 14 games last year, tying for the team lead with 5 interceptions and had 17 pass deflections.
