Seahawks Open To Trading Former First-rounder Lb Curry

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000...strounder-lb-curry?module=HP11_headline_stack

My question, would this guy be a good addition? And how much would it take to get him? Discuss.

It's a possibility according to Bob McGinn of the MJS. If we gave up a 5th or less, I'd be OK with it. My guess is that Ted sees some pass-rushing ability from him and sees him as a potential answer to the OLB spot opposite Clay. It's an intriguing option.

Um probably not, I want to see So'oto and hopefully this doesn't become the Lynch 2011 debate

I've seen the twit (?). It was McGinn speculating (yeah, I know, AGAIN) about it...

Here's it:

ted is going to let go of a late round draft pick? I find that hard to believe lol

i was just gonna start this thread.. i say bring him on at the right price.. id even be willing to give up a 4th for the guy.. he has the makings to be one of the best LB's in the league.. idk about OLB dude, but him and bishop could really do wonders in the middle with the right coaching

Hmmm....interesting! I can see Thompson at least chatting with his former employee, Schneider about the possibility of a trade.

I heard the Packers were considering a trade for Aaron Curry (Seahawks OLB) anybody have any news on it or if it's legit? Any thoughts on if it would be a good addition opposite Matthews with Zombo out?

Where did you hear we were interested? Just curious...

I feel like we had another thread on this at one point.

Im sure they are kicking tires, but it takes alot for TT to do a trade.

I was discussing it on another forum and of course Ted usually doesn't do this kind of stuff.

I doubt they would give up a whole lot, especially for someone else's 1st round pick. But I think he'd be a good addition because we need some help on pass rush.

He hasn't shown a hint of anything in his time at Seattle. This is the complete opposite kind of guy than who we typically go after. I'm not saying it won't happen, but has there ever, ever!, been a precedent for Thompson trading for a top ten draft pick who busts?

I agree with you 100%, but when has Ted Thompson ever ever done anything that we could predict? I gave up trying to figure out what he would do years ago. I just trust in TED!

I wouldn't be shocked if TT made some kind of move this year. I doubt it would be curry, but if there were a LB option out there that would upgrade the pass coverage or pass rush I think he does something.

he has come very close to making several big trades. Moss. Tony gonz. I feel like there was one other big one I am failing to remember. Most of the time it just came to the other team wanting too much.

Tough to sort out actual rumor or random speculation. TT will do what he thinks is in the best interest of the Packers - no telling what his feelings are on Curry. My bet, is if you can't make it on a poor team, you probably won't do better on a good team. But then again, maybe in some cases a player is being used in a wrong system for his talents.

Nope.

Brett Favre

What are you basing that statement on? Curious???

That name sounds familiar but I cant seem to put a face with the name.
