Just my impression.

If I were Seymour and was compared to Dwight Freeney, I'd be saying 'you've got to be kidding'. Talk about an over-hyped player.

I hope I'm wrong, but my gut says that Seymour is not going to be inclined to call a deal from the Pats "fair", no matter what is offered. I think he has already decided to search for the pot of bling at the end of the rainbow in free agency. Again, I hope I'm wrong...that's just the way I read his comments over the past year or two.

Seymour might call it a fair deal, but would he sign it?
