ThereIsNoDog Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Reportedly for a 1st rounder in 2011. Good to get him out of the division, and hopefully the Raiders will be good in 2010 and the pick won't be as high as it will probably be next year.

jwws9999 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Link typical patriots move, trade someone that no longer fits the system regardless of what he's done for you. and we keep schoebel and kelsay, go figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog69 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 wow. Cannot believe the Pats* would trade him. Thats a nice pickup for Oakland and its one less player on the NE* defense for us to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Good lord, this means that the Patriots will have the #1 pick in 2011, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThereIsNoDog Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 typical patriots move, trade someone that no longer fits the system regardless of what he's done for you. and we keep schoebel and kelsay, go figure Seymour didn't "fit their system?" LOL! He WAS their system. This is a big loss for the Pats, and while the Raiders got fleeced with a 1st rounder, as I said, it's in 2011. The Pats will need all the good picks they can get by then since the team will be a shell of its former self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fingon Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 typical patriots move, trade someone that no longer fits the system regardless of what he's done for you. and we keep schoebel and kelsay, go figure They traded him because they don't want to pay both him and Wilfork.

Mr. ChumChums Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 wow. Cannot believe the Pats* would trade him.Thats a nice pickup for Oakland and its one less player on the NE* defense for us to worry about. But it also means that NE has yet ANOTHER first round pick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 GD, that's gonna give the Pets a top 5 pick in 2011! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lets_go_bills Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Geez. As if hoodwinking the Raiders for Moss wasn't enough, now they fleece them again! They get a first for a 30-year old who they drafted with a first. The guy plays great, makes pro bowls and now they deal him on the downside of his career for the price they paid to get him. Talk about a great return on your investment! Al Davis, dumb. Bill Belichik, genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have adopted a very pro-active attitude toward re-building before the whole thing crumbles...I can only hope it blows up in their face, but you have to admire their willingness to make ballsy moves like this...poor Seymour will likely wither away in Oakland, one of the few franchises more dysfunctional than ours in Buffalo...

The Patriots have a lot of age on their roster and are living on borrowed time. They've also drafted pretty poorly, hitting on a few picks. And Wilfork is going to command Haynesworth-type money. Lastly, if it's a top-5 pick, that's a lot of money to invest in an unknown player, and trading-out of the top-5 is almost impossible now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Seymour, barring injury, has another solid 5 years in him...I don't think it would be a horrible trade for the Raiders, if they had a legitimate NFL caliber roster...but they are a long way from that...Seymours will waste away there, unless he forces his way out, demanding a trade...ala Randy Moss...

I hate the patriots as much as anyone, but can you remember any personnel decision they've made in the last 10 years that hasn't worked out and kept them at the top of the division. maybe warnow can tell us what mr. wilson thinks about this situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
