BEST and WORST (trades).

[GemCity]

The Unger trade was the worst to me. I’d like to say the JA trade but, I was all in…even at the insane cost. I don’t think anyone would’ve complained if we got the version we traded for although, the fact would’ve stood that the positional value(s)/picks were heavily skewed in the Jets favor.

Best…my heart goes with the Marshawn trade as he’s probably my favorite player ever. But, off-loading Russ turned out to be pure genius. A lot of you in this very forum were calling for that for years. Somewhat premature imo (maybe a year earlier would’ve worked out great as well). But, kudos to those who nailed it.

The Russ haul had a clear and direct impact on what the Hawks did last season.

I dont get the Largent trade. How did an 8th-round pick get us a guy who had just been selected with a fourth round pick? He hadn't even played for them yet. That's some insanely fast depreciation of an asset.

Not about the trade specifically but in a documentary on him from NFL films they say he had trouble catching the ball and combined with his stature he wasn’t looking like the guy they thought they drafted. I assume he was going to be cut so they took a late rounder thinking it’s better than nothing.

Wow, I didn't know that having trouble catching the ball was part of his background lore. That is absolutely crazy given his legendary status (league wide) with Seattle on that.

And trust me on this….

Old Oiler Fans hate that trade way more than we hate the Ahman Green trade, and that’s taking into consideration that many Hawks fans think the Green trade is our worst.

It's all perspective! I saw the talent in Ahman "Butterfingers" Green, but he would fumble the ball like it was his job! I didn't mind seeing him go.

Adams was on the pricey side, but I know plenty of Seahawk first round picks that didn't break any NFL records, Adams did! 9 sacks is wild!

He was the literal definition of "Blazing speed",
Yes, he had hands of stone to the point of being comical, but he made plays!

Best trade: Largent
Worst trade: The Kingdome for Husky Stadium

Worst trade: The Kingdome for Husky Stadium

Eff that!
You must not be paying attention.

You should be evaluating how we ultimately ended up, and what we gave up.

Husky stadium led to the best (easily top 3) football venue in the NFL.

Are you high too?
