All the talk about whether or not we should have kept Richard Seymour last season instead of trading him reminded me of something I've been wanting to ask for a while. A few weeks ago I heard he was talking with the Raiders about a new contract. So, he actually wants to stay in Oakland, even though he's no longer under contract?
Are they doing that much better, or does he just not want to relocate again?

The Raiders applied the exclusive franchise tag to Seymour, so right now he is under contract with them and they are the only team that can negotiate with him.

Unless, of course, they choose to allow him to negotiate a trade with other teams (as the Patriots did with Deion Branch while he was under contract).

Should we bring him in?

Because Richard Seymour will go where the money and the situation are best and where he can most easily manipulate ownership, front office and coaching staff.
And since the Raiders are a team in disease from ownership to sidelines, where better for a self-centered punk like Seymour to plant himself?
Wait until the Raiders give him four years, and countless sick millions and he "tweaks his hammy" or some other imaginary Big PuSey injury and misses 6 games his first year...won't they be happy? Couldn't happen to a nicer organization!

Good...and I do mean GOOD...riddance!
Because the Raiders used the exclusive franchise tag on Seymour and he couldn't go elsewhere even if he wanted to. But why let facts get in the way of an uninformed rant, right?

Seymour's a "self-centered punk"?? Is that what we think Brady, Brushchi, McGinest and the rest of the people who actually know the man think of him? God, mix in a clue already.
The man was traded to the most garbage team in the league. Of course he doesnt really want to continue playing out there, but he's caught between a rock and a hard place. Im sure he'll play this season out under that one-year franchise tender, and next year move on to an actual team.

Exactly!
An uninformed rant is so much more fun and allows me to club the image of Richard Seymour yet again, as he so richly deserves!
