Seahawks trade down with denver in the 3rd round

[chris98251]

Denver fans have to feel that they get owned at every turn by John and Pete and the Seahawks these days.

I'm surprised the broncos were willing to talk to JS after last year.

No doubt . I wonder who made the call.

Get pick 108 in forth and next years 3rd.

I don't get that one...

I don't get that one...

It's possibly salary cap driven plus it may give us more maneuverability in trading up next season

The team obviously felt there was not the value they believed appropriate at pick #83 so they moved back.

Getting future value is a bonus with the future 3rd rounder and they still have 6 picks to make.

Finding their guys who will make a difference will now get harder, but the draft is not even half over and there are still many good players left.

He must not have talked to the .net draft experts we have here.

So we have another year with an excuse to root against the donkeys? Count me in

I don't need an excuse to root against the Broncos and Raiders, because I'm old enough to remember the Seahawks' days in the AFC West.

On the other hand, I don't have anything against donkeys, so I don't call the Broncos that.

We moved down 25 spots, and our reward is an additional 3rd round pick in 2024.

Almost seems fair. The saving grace... it helps some in cap space for this year.

By the Jimmy Johnson chart, which is a still-surprisingly-good estimate of how teams tend to value picks, the trade was about even. But by others like the Chase Stuart chart, which value picks by the average overall value obtained there (in the case of the Stuart chart and the updated ESPN draft-value calculator based on the same idea, it's by Sports-reference's Approximate Value), this trade is a significant win for the Seahawks.

It's a good move with no need for a cap-related "saving grace."

I'm not sure what chart this guy uses. But the value was pretty even according to the Rich Hill chart.

It's funny I've heard the value of this trade all over the place. From we got ripped off to where Denver got ripped off to it was even. Depending on who you talk to and what chart is being used to the point where I just don't care any more... just saying... lol

It makes absolutely no sense in any chart to say that the Seahawks got ripped off on this trade if they are basically getting the same round pick next year. On top of that they picked up an early fourth round pick for nothing.

I have no real issue with this trade but to say Denver got brutalized is definitely a bit of a stretch.

When RW shits the bed again next season and they win 7 games then YES they did.

Only 363 days to wait to see what Seahawks do with that third round pick they got from Denver!
