Where does AB end up?

I'm so confused now. Is AB an evil genius who just pulled off one of the greatest deals ever? I'm seriously wondering if he played us all. Either that or he's an a-hole that got really lucky. 

Now that I am looking at it I think it's probably a little combination of both. He's already crazy and didn't really want to play for the Raiders after seeing how much of a rebuilding program it is, (got cold feet? :D)  and wanted to get released in some fashion.  The Pats weren't going to give him 29 million guaranteed but decided 9 was worth it after having Edelman, a possibly not drug free Gordon as their WR's.  I have to believe that the Patriots had contacts telling them AB wanted to go elsewhere and was making a scene partially to get out of Oakland.  These are total guesses by me.  I just have a slightly hard time believing the Pats signed him this quickly with no assurances of his mental health, and figured that out within a few hours.

Nah, a few of us have been onto this. Look at the frostbite thread, I said on August 18 this is all a big distraction for something else.

I do think he would have stuck it out with the Raiders possibly without all the fines.  Maybe he just wanted to push them around as much as he wanted and when they pushed back decided he didn't want to be there. Then when they voided the guarantees it was time to go.  Into Bill's loving arms. 

 

How are you feeling if you are the Raiders right now? They got played and lost 2 draft picks in the process. Mayock looks like fool.
