Brett Favre To Get Much Needed Help In Minnesota As New England Trades Randy Moss To Vikings For 3rd Round Pick [Video]


Video After The Jump

Randy Moss' improbable return to Minnesota is about to become reality.

The Vikings and the Patriots have agreed to a blockbuster trade that will send the Pro Bowl wide receiver back to Minnesota for the Vikings' 2011 third-round pick on Wednesday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

When the trade is completed, the Patriots will have two picks in each of the first four rounds of the 2011 draft -- their own picks and a first-round pick from Oakland, a second-round pick from Carolina, the third-round pick from Minnesota and a fourth-rounder from Denver.

A source close to Moss told ESPN NFL senior analyst Chris Mortensen that Patriots coach Bill Belichick informed Moss of the trade on Wednesday morning by telephone. The source said the conversation was cordial, with both men expressing appreciation for the time they spent together.

Moss will report to the Vikings on Wednesday and is said to be "excited" about returning to his original team with Brett Favre at quarterback, the source said. No contract extension talks have been conducted, but it is expected the two sides will have a discussion later in the day, the source said.

FoxSports.com earlier reported the trade talks.

The seven-time Pro Bowl receiver is in the final year of his four-year contract with New England and has voiced his displeasure with being in limbo.

"When you have done so much and put so much work in, it kind of feels like I am not wanted," Moss said before the season began on Sept. 6. "I am taking that in stride and playing my final year out and whatever the future holds is what it holds, but it is kind of a bad feeling -- feeling not wanted. It is not like my production has gone down."

A few days later he apologized for the timing of his comments and said he loves playing in New England.

But the Boston Herald, citing an unnamed source, reported on Tuesday that Moss wanted out of New England after a Week 1 win on Sept. 12, telling his agent to ask the Patriots to trade him.

Although the Patriots crushed the Dolphins on Monday night, Moss did not have a catch -- the first time that's happened for him in a New England uniform.

Moss and Belichick did not speak or even see each other on Tuesday, a league source told Schefter.

Farve is old but the man still is top 5 QBs in the league, and Moss is top 5 WRs. Vikings were one play away from the Superbowl last season, now that they got better people expect better results. I don't think that's outrageous to think. O well, as long as the Colts in there I don't care who they pounce on. Saints got em last year with that onside kick, but its ok.

lol@ people thinking this trade will put the vikings in the super bowl. lmaoo yea right the qb is 99 years old and ur new reciever is 40 (good but on his way out)..and to all you n***** thinking Moss is a trouble maker obviously don't watch football and probably just watch the media. ignorant a** comments..they call all the great black recievers "trouble makers" to keep them out the hall of fame..u gotta be good n***** like Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith and keep ur mouth shut and Yes Sir whitey to be GREAT..yet T.O. passing and breaking records every year.
