Virtually all of your best players are wounded ...
But hey! .. you got that nifty first round pick 2 years from now that will come when all of your current big name guys - except Mayo - are too old to matter anymore.
I realize it's a Raiders first round pick - so it will probably be a top 5 .. but that's a trade that's going to haunt you everytime you give up 2nd half leads to qb's like Mark Sanchez and Kyle Orton.

Im a die hard pats fan... I say it was worth it. Realisticly Brady needs time to get back... He is missing WIDE OPEN TARGETS. Lets say he takes a year to get back, that pick will be huge, its more then likely going to be a top 3 pick, we can turn that into many picks, or a big name D-tackle or wideout. Also I still think we are good enough this year, I was sure Baltimore was the team to beat "besides us" but they are clearly not that good, pitt is not the same and Indy does not scare me.
