He's not worth that, lol. The Raiders got ripped.

In return, the Patriots get a 2011 first-round draft pick, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

Seymour, 29, spent the first eight years of NFL career with New England. In that time, he amassed 357 total tackles and 39 sacks.

The five-time Pro Bowler and three-time Super Bowl champion matched his career high with eight sacks in 2008. Seymour has 39 sacks in 111 career games. He also has 4.5 sacks in 15 postseason games.

Heres an idea, why didn't they just keep Burgess to begin with ?

It's not the fact that the Raiders got ripped (I couldn't care less) it's what the Belicheats got in return. The NFL should take all trading rights away from the Raiders until Al dies.

No, this is the front end of a Seymour trade to the Panthers for our 2011 number 1 and 2 pick.

Not necessarily a bad move for the Raiders if you consider how they usually use their first round picks.

I think Seymour would be a DT in a 4-3..

I think this is a fair deal on both sides
