Interesting.
Liked him at WSU, but I'm wondering why Luani?

Interesting. He is only 24 and was drafted in the 7th round of the 2017 draft.

Maybe they would like to part with one of those recent firsts they got for a safety to replace him.

I dunno...
I guess I thought of Luani as a developmental/maybe special teams prospect. He was productive from a "ballhawk" standpoint at WSU. He was not known for his tackling consistency.
It does not boost my confidence in our current developmental/special teams DBs if we are trading draft picks for others at this point. Maybe they see something; Norton was his DC afterall.

Does anyone know what they gave up to get Luani? I really hope it's not another backup safety for a 5th rounder trade. A few years ago, Seattle traded a 5th to Oakland for Dewey McDonald. He was terrible at S so they converted him to LB. I don't even think I ever saw him play. From what I remember about Luani, he has decent ball skills, but is an atrocious tackler. Like beyond awful. Hopefully he's been cleaned up some.

Well we got our Safety trade, just a bit different then expected.
Just as a correction note ......................
Seattle traded a conditional 7th round pick for Dewey McDonald as a hybrid project and special teams player. A knee injury crippled his development and brought his hybrid fit and career to a premature end. It was a good purposeful trade that was negated by injury.
Ken Norton's Shalom Luani trade is a purposeful trade that adds roster intrigue going into the Denver game.

I know nothing of this kid other than his SPARQ heading into last years draft was bad. Do they see him as another Chris Maragos? I don’t understand the logic in dropping Alexander for Luani.
