WHat a desperate move by the Raiders, Seymour is on the decline and trade a 1st rd pick which will likely be a top 10 and probably top 5 pick in 2011, just stupid. But then again, Al Davis probably figures he will be dead by then so he don't give a f&^%

I don't understand why the Patriots would trade away Richard Seymour when they're trying to win the championship THIS YEAR.
Sure they will win out in the long term with the 1st rounder.
But it makes their team that much weaker for this season.
Yeah, this is where i'm at. On Defense, the Patriots now have 2 quality players in Mayo and Wilfork. Yeah there is some talent here and there, but they are significantly weaker today.
And if the Raiders can sign Seymour to a long term contract, then they got better.
I don't think this deal is as bad for the Raiders as people are thinking.

f**kING WOW. Great f**king move by Oakland, Seymour and Ellis should certainly help that front 7 vs both the run and pass.
You're not taking into account that Seymore is in the last year of his contract, which means that the Patriots can get Seymore back next year after he realizes that "the grass isn't always greener on the other side".

Giving up your 1st (in a strong draft) for a one year rental?
I could understand if it was a contending team, but the raiders arent even there yet.

remember seymour is going to play DT
raiders run a 4-3
pats of course run a 3-4
However, he is in a contract year and may put up huge numbers to get paid
He was a 4-3 DT in college and his first 2 years in the NFL before the Pats moved to the 3-4 Defense. He still played DT in nickel situations since the move to the 3-4 base.

The draft pick in in 2011 so the Raiders still have a 1st rounder next year and they have the option of franchising him if they can't resign him to a long term deal. At that point they could always trade him if he refuses to play for them.
They can franchise if they so chose, however they can't trade a player who isn't under contract!!!
False
The Raiders can trade him even after he signs the tender.
See: Matt Cassel
