  1. http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/extra_points/2009/09/seymour_headed.html
  2. He'll be part of the 'greatest pats team' on Monday night, along with Rodney and Troy Brown. Bruschi was named the defensive captain to the all pats team after he announced his retirement. Good luck on ESPN Tedy.
  3. Interesting note: http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Diner-morning-news-Random-thoughts-2603.html Weird that it's a done deal even though he hasn't taken a physical, I guess that was part of the deal.
  4. I don't think so personally, the 1st in 2011 is a high return......under BB the pats have a great track record with high 1st rounders. Right now we are not as good a team without Seymore, however BB always says you don't know who your team really is until after week 5....let's hope at that point we feel good about this deal. Because true nose tackles for the 3-4 are rare, and harder to come by with more teams going to a 3-4. While the pats are gearing more towards a 4-3 this year, BB is a 3-4 guy and will try and move in that direction when he can get the proper LB's.
  5. Interesting tweet from Schefter:
  6. No argument here. I hope the drop-off isn't so bad, but again it's tough to see them better/as good without Seymore. The pats this off-season have now lost their best D-Lineman (arguably) in Seymore, their most experienced LB's in Vrabel and Bruschi (although Bruschi should be good on ESPN), and their most experienced safety in Harrison. While they are def more athletic now, it's hard to see them better. The pats needed to get younger, but this is a lot at once. They are faster and more athletic now, but time will tell if they have the guys that can do all the little things the vets did that made them successful.
  7. Ya that is a Cable quote: and then this from the pats: . Hopefully it's resolved quickly and it's not Seymore making a stink. Lot's of rumors out there about him not wanting to go , but nothing concrete.
  8. Seymore a 'no show' for the Raiders, it could get messy if he refuses to show.
  9. I wouldn't call the D-Line the Achilles heel of the pats, it's their strength on D....behind them are questions. On the surface this looks great long term and bad for this year. It's hard to imagine the pats D being better/as good without Seymore. He is said to want about $9mil per season and the pats aren't going to give him that so why not sacrifice one year without him for a great return. There won't be a huge drop-off with Jarvis Green stepping in, not to mention that the pats will base a 4-3 this year as opposed to a 3-4 like normal. (this is probably due to much more quality on the Dline than at LB) Mike Wright has played very well in the past...and Myron Pryer and Ron Brace have played very well through camp. I'm sure the pats figured the return was worth more than the drop off this year.
  10. Word out of Oakland is that the deal was for a 2010 1st but BB insisted on it being a 2011 1st rounder. Pats may pick up Feeley now that he was released, O'Connell rumored to go to the Broncos.
  11. Apparently Merriman is going with the "I was trying to stop her from driving drunk" defense. I must admit it's better than the " I choked her out for getting on my nerves" defense
  12. Merriman arrested for assaulting a woman http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/sports&id=7001564 Great start to the season for SD
  13. I don't think the pats wanted to get rid of RS, but saw the writing on the wall. They have a lot of big names coming up for contracts after this year (including Seymore) and maybe he wasn't a high priority due to his age (he'll be 30 by next season). They probably didn't think they could sign him and wanted to get value. A first is a good move but he will be missed this year...i would have liked to see him in the 4-3 the pats are running this year.
  14. Team name is 'suitcase of courage' and dues sent via paypal any chance of making the draft a little bit later in the evening? If not it's ok, it would just make it easier if the kids were already in bed thanks
  15. In, please send info and i'll get the dues out to you.
  16. Great player, he will be missed. BB said he was the best practice player he has seen in his career.
  17. Al Davis doesn't like dealing with the pats after the Moss trade, so who knows if this gets done.
  18. Great episode!
  19. email sent gom.
  20. Please stay retired, if he does come back it will be unbearable to watch any national coverage of the NFL.
  21. GWS Remdog, it's not the same without you!
  22. I would be very surprised if it isn't at least a 5 game suspension. B's should be good and fired up for Tuesday!
  23. Good tidbit on the pats new ILB: http://blogs.tampabay.com/usf/2009/04/from-bulls-to-belichick-tremendous-for-tmac.html

    NFL Draft

    NFLN had a few worthless guys (Marshall Faulk for one) but for the most part they were good. Probably the 2 best in my opinion were John Gruden and Mayok (sp?)
