Ok now we can officially christen this thread as we are a day away from the start of the season.
Did Oakland get their new player yet or is Seymour going to hold out the entire season.![]()
Not yet apparently..Seymour's ALWAYS been about the money.He held out in 06 until he got his former deal from the Pats.Ironic for a guy who held out, talked about "the business" and generally seemed like he was in NE to do a job and nothing more. Be careful what you wish for.
I’m told reliably that Richard Seymour isn’t looking for a long-term contract from the Raiders, that in fact his absence centers solely on his unhappiness with the trade. The comments from coach Tom Cable are really irrelevant since the trade papers have been signed and approved by the league office. He counts on the Raiders’ 53-man roster, so how does Seymour need to clear things up with the Patriots? All that remains is for Seymour to show up and pass his physical. There’s nothing left for the Patriots to do regarding Seymour because he’s now the property of the Raiders, so many NFL observers were left shaking their heads after hearing Cable’s comments.
How in the he** do you complete a trade without the player you're trading for getting a physical
