Will DK or Lockett get traded?

Daniel Jeremiah told Brock and Salk today that he thinks the best Seattle could get in return for DK is a 2nd and a 3rd. That would be very disappointing, IMO.

A 2nd AND a 3rd would be a great deal for Seattle. I'd do that trade in a New York second.

DK took full responsibility for the last pick. Good to see. He's never been a finger pointer, even if people think he's some team cancer.
We need a lot more from him, no doubt about it.

I guess it all depends on who your trade partner is. If it's KC, for example, now you're looking at the very bottom of rounds 2 & 3, most likely.

I’d trade DK to Dallas for a 2nd and Beebe

 

[Seahawk_Dan]

I doubt it.

Locket is a good receiver and he’s reliable. I think a lot of teams, especially ones with young quarterbacks would benefit from him as a safety blanket, but considering his age even if there was interest at best you maybe get a 4th or 5th for him.

DK has all the physical traits you want but he’s been around enough to where people know his ceiling is slightly above average, and that’s if he’s balling. Maybe two years ago you could get a decent haul from him but now, at best, you’re getting a 3rd for him.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

He ceiling is slightly above average? Um.............ok

When can we sign? To sweeten the deal, I will add Connor William to go with DK for Creed, a 2005 1st and 2nd

The question is do we take DeMarcus Ware or Aaron Rodgers with that first round pick.

1. Any chance to take a shot at DK Satan
2. At least spell it correctly, Lockett
3. Geno kills enough drives himself
4. Go Hawks

In conclusion, trade Geno, sign Wilson once the Steelers cut him, or reach out to the Steelers for a trade for Wilson. Happy days are here again?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

God no

The NFL trade deadline is November 5. We play two more games between now and then and both will be tough. Those games will determine if we're trading for a playoff run this year or looking ahead to next season.

DK fumbles too much, and has a big contract extension coming. He admitted his lazy route-running caused one of Geno's picks. We are loaded at this position. This is a trade that could happen, and it would not break my heart.

 

[toffee]

God no

My first cocktail started early today, so just messin' with ya

I wouldn't say we are loaded exactly. JSN can be a good #2, and we have an aging Tyler Lockett who might not even be here next season. Other than that you are left with some question marks. That being said, it's easier to win in this league with a good o line and average receivers than it is to win with a poor o line and good receivers. That's why I'm not opposed to a DK trade if the price is right.

Nicely done, now I need some Tums

 

[Appyhawk]

I have a hard time seeing Lockett agreeing to a trade. I think he wants to retire as a lifetime Seahawk.
DK's skillset would be very hard to replace. I like him despite his warts. I think the main thing is for all our guys, and maybe especially DK, to take it upon themselves to do the job the play calls for them to do. That would eliminate a lot of the "miscommunication" errors. Try to be heroes together instead of by themselves.

 

[Rat]

He admitted his lazy route-running caused one of Geno's picks.

He didn't say anything about being lazy. The pick wasn't from a lack of effort; he saw an opportunity for a bigger play and erroneously cut upfield, which took the two of them off the same page.

Regardless, DK has always been overwhelmingly supportive of his teammates and would never throw one of them under the bus. I suspect he's the kind of guy (like Pete) who would take 100% of the blame for something even if he wasnt really 100% at fault.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

DK might be a lot of things, but Lazy? Just stop. FFS this place sometimes.

hahaha, sorry dude.

I gave the topic some thought, I came to the opinion that DK may not be a team's best choice as their WR1, he is an excellent WR2. How one could convince him of that would be the challenge.

I came to that opinion based on:

1. Hands, SK has big hands 9 7/8", but he drops and fumbles balls regularly.
2. Speed, despite his 4.38 speed, he seldom ran away from defender Randy Moss style, both in creating separation and YAC, perhaps Randy's 4.25 was the difference?
3. Jump ball, DK at 6'4" with 40.5" vertical jump, he doesn't win jump ball consistently.

DK should be undefendable, but he is. With a bonafide WR1 next to him, DK would be that homerun guy but not the one who gets 10-15 opportunities a game.

my 2p.

You will not get what you think you will get for DK
