Don't really like that move for Seattle. They already had that Wilson guy at TE who looked like a legit receiving threat at the end of the year. Also they just gave Lynch that extension. On top of that their OL looked like garbage a lot of least year and now they get rid of a really good C.

I get Jimmy Graham is good and all but that seems like an awful lot to get him. Trading away the anchor of your offensive line (Russell already has to scramble a lot) and your 1st round pick that you could have easily used on Maxx Williams?

To each their own, I guess.

But wow, this trade came out of left field.

Can he block? Aren't they a run first team? It's a sexy move, not sure if it's a smart one.

It makes even less sense from the Saints perspective. They should just trade Brees and start over at this point.

Good point. Given Seattle's O-line was already not-that-stellar, not sure how good a strategy it is to make that unit weaker even if it means upgrading the receiving crops.

I definitely would not have traded our center and a first round pick for Jimmy. I love Jimmy, but I think Richard Rodgers has upside. I'll stick with the guy I drafted. We have other needs to focus on.

Snider has been a pretty good GM the past few years so he must know something I don't...it just doesn't seem like a good move for them from an outsider's perspective.

Seahawks and Cowboys then us and Arizona


Super Bowl teams upgrade their teams by addition not by staying stagment.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Am I the only one who thinks Richard Rodgers can be a star in this league?

When did Ted pick up peppers, guion, linsley, adams, haha, or r.rodgers who all made appreciable contributions to last year's team?

The seahawks just dropped a starting C and a 1st round pick for a TE who can't block on a run-first team and you're anointing them NFC champs already?
