Trade Sherman?

Rumors are he's being shopped around. I'm not against it if it brought back a first rounder (Saints at 32).

The only problem is we are already thin at CB. Earl Thomas showed he is easily the most valuable member of the secondary when he was out.

    Depends on the return ... if you know you can get a replacement to slot in for him I'd strongly consider it.

    At this point, he's as much of a distraction as an asset.

    Not going to happen. He's more valuable to Seattle than he would be anywhere else. Nobody else has the defense taylor made to his skills + the culture to handle his personality.

    He may not retire in Seattle, but they're not going to get an offer big enough to make it worthwhile to move him on this contract.

    You can win a SB this upcoming year so unless someone overpays like crazy you keep him.

    To be clear I'm looking only at his performance on the field. I don't care what he says or does off field

    If Seattle trades him it's because some other GM/Coach combo is stupid enough to think he'd be as valuable in their system.

    He'd be valuable in any system. It's unlikely he'd be $11 million per year PLUS what it would take to get Seattle to part with him valuable in any system.

    I mostly agree, but he was a distraction last year. Chancellor at the end of the year commented on it fucking them up.

    Sherman is a very good CB, but I don't totally discount the scheme helps. If we had depth I would love to trade him, but we don't.

    I'm not as convinced about that as you. Sherman would still be good, but I bet he would slip on any other team.

    Not worth it unless it's a stupid team like the Browns who will give up a ton of talent (if they have it) and/or draft picks. The Hawks have a couple of more years with this core. The time is now.

    You gave me a wtf when I would have traded him for a Marcus peters pick 2 years ago. Now you and I both would trade him straight up

    I love Peters but he doesn't have the discipline to play in Seattle's system. He wouldn't be a good fit here, at all.

    I wouldn't trade Sherman for him for Seattle. If I'm KC I wouldn't trade Peters for Sherman. Both players are more valuable where they are.

    So both are just system guys then?








    Disagree.

    Everyone has a system that best fits their skill set, that isn't the same thing as being a system guy. SOYNTLTD

    Bellicheck would. The old trade a year early is better than a year late.

    Belichick would have traded him last year before he was burnt toast in the big game.
