The Patriots have made a couple of roster moves (so far) today, releasing LB Vince Redd and signing LB/DE Rob Ninkovich and DB Jamar Love.

Ninkovich, listed at 6-foot-2, 255 pounds, is a 25-year old Purdue product who split time with the Saints and Dolphins last season. He came into the league with New Orleans in 2006.

Love, an undrafted rookie, was released earlier this week.

Redd was an undrafted rookie last year who split his time between the practice squad and 53-man roster. He played in five of the final six games of the season, recording two defensive tackles and six special teams tackles.
