The Facts:
Moss, who is entering the final year of his contract, said that he doesn't expect to get a new deal with the Patriots and that he thinks he'll be looking for a new team after this season. "I don't think they are going to extend my contract here," said Moss. "I understand the beast, the nature of it. I think that just with what I think and what I know I don't think they're going to re-sign me back."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Moss is slated to make $6.4 million in base salary in the final year of the three-year, $27 million deal he signed with the Patriots following his record-setting 2007 season. He was still productive last season, catching 83 passes for 1,264 yards and tied for the NFL lead with 13 touchdown receptions. Moss was asked why he felt the team wouldn't bring him back. "It's the business of it, man," said Moss, who turned 33 this month. "There is not bad blood. ... I'm not mad. I'm not bitter. It's just the way things are in this NFL, so like I said after this year I'll be looking for a new team. I think so. ..." While we suspect it's a little early for Moss to begin predicting his departure, it's certainly worth noting.
