As per Adam Schefter via Twitter Good news: He's out of the division Bad news: Raiderjoe will be jerkin' himself to sleep on this board even moreso
Damn!!!! If true, N.E. will get the #1 pick next year. The rich just keep getting richer. How many draft picks do they have now?
Sighhhhhhhhh even if it were the first overall pick ne would trade out And flip the pick into two more first rounders
only the raiders would trade a first round pick for a guy like this. seymour is a great player, but he is on the back end of his career. i'm sure this is not the last piece of the puzzle for the raiders superbowl run.
That is horrible, now the Pats can choose a future HOFer from this next draft class. I'd rather they had to draft a Patrick Chung. Bad move for the Raiders too...they need good draft selections not 30 y/o guys. The Pats just keep nibbling off the Raiders..Derrick Burgess, 1st rd. pick now Oops..2011. Still stupid
Nothing on the front pages of ESPN, Yahoo, or NFL.com yet. This should be big news I'm kinda shocked its not there.
Don't know if I should be happy or not... Patriots got a 2011 top 5 pick in exchange of a 30 years old player. From the Oakland Raiders pont of view it makes sense though since they have absolutely no idea on how to use draft picks in the higher rounds. Al Davis.. time to look for a retirement house. PS Who will starts for the Cheatriots now?
+1 The Pats must have felt the same way... I'm sure he'll be a major disappointment in Oakland, like all of their veteran signings and acquisitions.
i just woke up and flipped on espn and they were just breaking it then, so this is legit. with the likes of twitter even normal websites can't keep up anymore.
this weakens there defense for the next 2 years. the draft pick is not for next season but the following season. maybe the raiders will be decent enough not to have a top 10 pick by then! i wish we could have convinced them to take thomas jones for a 1st round pick, lol! leading AFC RUSHER! AL david, he was the LEADING AFC rusher! 1st round pick quality!
