Am I the only one worried about Big Sey - New England Patriots Forums

I am sorry I think he is more injured than the Pats are stating, I think there is a good chance he starts the season on the PUP.

I know its a position that the Pats have some depth in. But with Warren banged up, I am concerned. if Seymore is not playing, we lose all depth, and our dlineman are forced to play more downs the rotations are smaller, and that leads to more injuries.

Not to mention just losing Seymore, no matter how good Jarvis Green is as a backup, takes a hit on that unit.

I am suprised I do not see much of Seymore's injury on this board. To me this is a very very big deal. Way more important than Moss's hammy.

To me this is a number one issue of the pre season so far. And the 2nd issue (What ever that may be, secondary, Moss, old LBs, etc.) isnt even close to as important as this. Like miles away in as important.

I've looked for a "Seymore" on the roster, but haven't found him...so I would say don't worry

Every week it seems there is a post just like this. The good news is that with the existing DL depth, Seymour, who had offseason surgery, can work his way back to ensure he does not expose himself to further injury and is ready to resume his level of play. If you've watched the preseason games, you've seen Jarvis Green and LeKevin Smith look great at DE. Also, Ty Warren is now practicing in pads. There is no issue with Seymour regarding a "secret" injury. He's just working his way back, and the DL is fine in the meantime, and will be finer when he resumes his position.

It seems like we go through this every year at this time, and then he just goes out and wrecks fools all season long.

He had surgery. He played most of the year with that and at least two other injuries.

He's healing. Relax, it's going to be magic!

THE PATRIOTS STAFF IS BEING EXTRA-CAREFUL with a few guys, Moss and Seymour among them. No need for worry, IMO. Especially, but not exclusively, because of the obvious depth at DL.

Slagathor · 08-28-2007, 10:47 AM

He was on EEI yesterday with Rodney. He didn't sound like a guy that was going to be missing any significant time.

I'll take my chances with Wilfork, Warren, Green and Wright.

You know what we need? A president of the Le Kevin Smith Fan Club.

1) No. You are not the only one worried about him. I share your concern.

2) We won't have a chance of knowing what's really going on until he is PUPPED for the beginning of the season or he shows up on the roster ready to play. I think either could occur.
