Right but I don't think "too good to resist" can be defined without knowing both sides of the equation.
One side was Raiders' 2011 #1 pick.
What was the other side ?
I think it was "lose him after this year or give him a monster deal". If he was willing to sign for good but not crazy money that changes the other side of the equation in what is "too good to resist".
Good point. And probably the other side of the equation was Sey's history during contract years. Hell, for all we know Sey was already dropping the hints that it was time again to play hardball.
But along with that for all we know Sey was keeping mum, doing what he was asked to do, and waiting until the time the team was ready to start talking.
One thing for sure, this is getting interesting each day he fails to show. I don't think the Patriots are as removed from it as they want to think just yet.
What I wish we knew (calling the capologists) is how much the Raiders have to work with now and the next few years. If they can't even come close to a "fair" extension because of cost, how can this possibly play out well?
