OFFICIAL: Seahawks have traded Kearse to Jets for Richardson

[Seymour]

First I'd like to thank Jermaine Kearse for all the great memories, some very clutch catches, and the great work in the community. Best of luck in your career!

Next, huge welcome to Sheldon to your new home. Please pull up a contract and sign for a few and realize your full potential here is Seattle! :2thumbs:

WOW!!

 

[chihawk]

even if he leaves next year we would get a 3rd round comp pick

:ditto: That is a very good point!

Jets fans are miserable about this trade. He also just got done blowing up the Giants OL in their preseason game. He is a game changer on the DL

Yup and they can now hold McDowell out for the season to get 100% and not lose a season on his rookie contract. This trade is perfect.

John Schneider is on a roll!

 

[Seymour]

Jville beat me by 1 minute...I'll leave anyway.

According to some highlights I just watched he is a potential short yardage/goal-line back as well. :sarcasm_off:

Yeah, don't judge the cake before it's fully baked people. More moves are a coming. Just sit back and watch Schneider with his Easy Bake Oven go, go ... go.

Never forget, if it wasn't for a certain incompetent buffoon, Kearse would be a true Seahawks hero.

That being said, we now have enough WR talent that he needs to go to free-up space and help the team grow elsewhere.

I love this trade!!! I bet the Seahawks probably had to up their draft pick a round in order to get the jets to take on Kearses contract.

I always thought the trade for Richardson was just a wish list for some, or the team. Why would the Jets trade one of the very best 3 tech Dt's in the league to us for a draft pick and perhaps a player, or two?

But to see it happen just made my day! I always liked Kearse, but you had to make this move. Richardson when motivated is just a freak of a 3tech interior pass rushing tackle. I was personally sick of watching any more of Rubin who did nothing as a pass rusher, and to me was just average as a run stopper.

To add Richardson to our D-Line makes us the best D in the league by far. Teams will be lucky to score more than 10 points a game against us now. What a day!

 

[HAWKAMANIA]

Nice trade! It's almost certain that our defense will outscore the offense!

 

[Rat]

This is going to end up being the league's best pass-rushing team since that Giants team that had Strahan, Umenyiora, and Tuck.

Seeing a lot of Sheldon Richardson playing left tackle jokes on Twitter now.

Ha.

Joke's gonna be on them soon.

 

[SNDavidson]

haha, I'm supposed to be studying too so I'm going to go back to that, but just wanted to type:

It's 3rd and 10 - Avril - Clark - Richardson - Bennett - WHAT YAH GONNA DO BROTHER?!

[West TX Hawk]

Just a great move all around. Can't wait for us to NASCAR Rodgers. Sure hope we can extend/re-sign him.
