Tony7188 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 It’s crazy how Seattle trades their SB winning QB and didn’t get one of Denver’s elite players smh. They didn’t get Sutton, Jeudy or Surtain. But they would take Lock lol. Denver won this trade easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr LBC Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 6 minutes ago, BullsandBroncos said: U were on a roll until this Yeah, I mean the literal only perk of Drew Lock is that getting him back in the trade signals (not that they'd shown interest, but it signals that they certainly shouldn't have any now post-Russ) that the Seahawks are not going to go out and sign Mitch Trubisky. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncoBruin Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Some of you are really overrating Harris and Fant as players. They’re fine. Harris is starting to decline a bit and probably only has a year or two left as a starter. He makes no sense for their adjusted rebuild timeline. Fant DOES have some upside, but he leaves you wanting more constantly. He’ll also be due a raise in the near future. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's still Drew Lock, owner of the most punchable face in the NFL, and he's still on their pay roll. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Denver doesn't make playoff noise and Seattle hits on at least 2-3 of those earlier picks, Seattle wins imo. they didn't get shafted. I personally think Lock and the picks should've been it but that's just me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveOurSonics Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Incredibly bittersweet. On one hand, I've been calling for us to trade Russ while his value is still high. His game, frankly, is not aging well. He relies a ton on playing outside of the play design and his athleticism continues to diminish (and he justifies his weight gain for durability). Don't get me wrong, he's still elite with a clean pocket and when he gets rid of the ball within 3 seconds it's a thing of beauty. Problem is, he all but refuses to throw 50/50 balls (you can argue this is Pete's fault), will negatively impact your OL, and will likely leave your OC infuriated that the play call isn't actually being ran. On the other hand, what a horrible return for Seattle and not my idea of trading Russ "while his value is still high". Sure, perspective is largely skewed due to the awful Jamal Adams trade, but that's just a natural comparison. To think we barely got more for Russ than what we gave up for Jamal is a travesty. I actually can't believe we couldn't get back a young foundation piece like Javonte, Surtain, or Jeudy. When I saw it was only two 1sts, I thought it MUST include one of those names. Anyone who follows my posts knows that I've been calling for John Schneider's head for a LONG time. There's not another GM in the league with as bad of a track record with early draft picks and trades than Schneider. Hopefully this just gets us one step closer to waving goodbye to him. Great trade for Denver. Who cares about those picks and those players? You got a legit top 15 QB that immediately makes you a strong playoff contender. I'll be very interested to see Russell's performance in Denver, because if he does have a bounce back season, it's safe to assume that Pete Carroll effectively neutered him here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgarrett12486 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 So apparently it wasn't Russ shooting down the deal to Wash? it was Seattle not wanting to trade him within the NFC. If that's true wow, you just left a lot more on the table potentially. I mean hell, Denver even plays Seattle this season lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jamal Adams trade was a travesty regardless of other events. Can't expect future moves to make up for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 idk I feel like they got a good amount if they use it right. if they end up drafting a franchise QB they could’ve definitely done well with this trade. let’s say they draft Malik Willis and he pans out. Trade could be franchise changing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
