WOW: HOU OT Duane Brown traded to SEA

[BobDigital]

Seattle D will likely not even miss have a half without Jeremy Lane. That OT though is a huge upgrade for them on a key weakness.

This probably makes them the team to beat in the NFC (I just don'e fully buy the Eagles yet).

I don't get to listen to sports radio much (so I don't know all the names when I'm listening) but the guys I was listening too actually called a Brown to Seattle trade over the weekend.

I think they predicted Brown for Graham. So while they weren't 100% right I'm still impressed.

Decent get.

EDIT: Really good get

Personally, I'm kind of impressed that HOU was able to get a serviceable DB along with next year 5th rounder and 2019 2nd rounder for a guy that clearly was not on board with the program. Either they had multiple bidders, or they have bad ass negotiating skills.

As for Jeremy Lane, things haven't always gone his way ( Seahawks' Jeremy Lane recounts the worst Super Bowl story ever ) have they?

@ausbacker with regards to why hes a POS
I think the whole implying that your protesting group of largely African American players are prisoners, when part of what those same ****ing players are protesting is unfairness in the justice system, either a know racist, homophobic, good ole' boy having a slip of facade and letting his real self out, or McNair is the most ignorant mother ****er on the planet.

Especially since those 'prisoners' get half the league's revenue each year and control its future...

If he said asylum instead of prison, they'd cry about that too.

Haven’t followed much of Seattle this year. I take it they have improved their depth in the secondary compared to recent years, and thus were more willing to deal Lane? Or no?

Recall them being very sub-par beyond their starters. And of course we all saw what happened in the Super Bowl.

Lane failed his physical.
Deal now looks like this

So, the Seahawks will now get Brown and a fifth-round pick in 2018. And the Texans get a third-round pick in 2018 and a second-round pick in 2019. ESPN's Adam Schefter quickly confirmed McClain's report. Basically, the Seahawks were forced to give up a third-round pick instead of a fifth-round pick. To soften the blow, they're apparently getting a fifth rounder back.

Jeremy Lane reportedly fails physical, which changes the Seahawks-Texans trade

Trade looks even better for Seattle now than it already did.
