SEATTLE SEAHAWKS THREAD

[checks grossman]

Would LOVE R Swope but moreso in the 2nd round, hype is insane on him since the combine but as time passes and reality sets in he should be available with our 58th pick.

We should know a lot come Tue as to how the address FA, and then the draft. Cant wait.

Vikes to send Percy Harvin to Seattle

The Minnesota Vikings have agreed to trade wide receiver Percy Harvin to the Seattle Seahawks, a source confirmed to ESPN.com's John Clayton.

In return, the Vikings will receive undisclosed draft picks. The trade agreement, contingent on Harvin passing a physical, was earlier reported by Fox Sports.

Seattle has a connection to Harvin. The team's offensive coordinator, Darrell Bevell, held the same job with Minnesota when the Vikings drafted Harvin in 2009.

Last month at the scouting combine, Vikings general manager Rick Spielman insisted he had no intent to deal the receiver, who he called a "dynamic playmaker," and said he wouldn't even take phone calls about a trade.

Harvin, who is entering the final year of his rookie contract, badly sprained his left ankle on Nov. 4 at Seattle last season and didn't play again. The Vikings placed him on season-ending injured reserve a month later.

Harvin made waves last summer when he expressed unhappiness with the organization and requested a trade. By the time training camp arrived, he had simmered down. He went home to Florida for his rehabilitation after he was placed on injured reserve, but coach Leslie Frazier downplayed his absence, noting that others have chosen to do the same.

He started last season playing like a Most Valuable Player award candidate, leading the league in total yards (receiving, rushing and returning) through nine games in 2012 until he was hurt.

Harvin still led the team in receptions (62) and yards receiving (677) despite playing barely half of a season, and he had a kickoff return for a touchdown as well as 96 yards rushing and one score on the ground.

The 24-year-old Harvin has 7,168 all-purpose yards in his four-season career with 29 touchdowns (20 receiving, five return, four rushing). He also has 280 receptions in 54 career games.

Information from ESPN.com senior writer John Clayton, ESPN.com NFC West blogger Mike Sando and The Associated Press was used in this report.

What's the word on the picks?

I've seen 1st round out there so far

Edit:

Seattle sends this years first round pick and a 7th rounder as well as a mid-round pick next year for Harvin. Win-win for both teams

Get in!!!!!!!!

 

[raw120]

feel good for my boy percy

 

[eracism]

Boss move.

 

 

[certifiedsw]

YOOOO

 

[illonaire2006]

I love this Harvin trade for now.. but now this means resigning Cam, Browner, Thomas, Sherman, and Wright that much harder in the next 2 years.. But if we win one this upcoming year I guess its worth it.

Beast Mode, Wilson, Harvin, and Rice as a true number 2 receiver?? X__X anything less than 13 wins is unacceptable.

Go Hawks

 

[$tacy]

Yessss welcome percy

'this team is gonna be scary

[dakid23]

I see a lot of new "Seahawk" fans in thread

 

[certifiedsw]

The bandwagon is going to be ridiculous next year. I fully expect a lot of new guys to start posting in here when the season rolls around


I'm very excited to see the TV schedule, finally about to get some primetime love

 

[mez 0ne]

should be dope to see Percy in that offense, team was clicking down the stretch.

Hopefully Lynch can stay healthy this time around

 

[651akathepaul]

F***ers. System overload for Bevell.


Nah. Hate to see him go man...One helluva football player Seattle just got. I hope some of you understand just how good this guy is. I called Softy's show on KJR and the guy said he'd put me on, but Softy cut it short to talk to Hugh Millen. I could've told everyone more than he could.

 

[elpablo21]

They did you wrong bro

Seattle is listening to offers for Leon's services.

It seems him and Obo will be the first casualties from this move.

 

[651akathepaul]

Leon's probably the obvious casualty. Downside of his career and with Percy probably returning kicks then I don't see a use for Leon, unfortunately. I like the guy.

 

[checks grossman]

I've been so geeked all day, still can not believe Seattle pulled it off.

 

[checks grossman]

I called Softy's show on KJR and the guy said he'd put me on, but Softy cut it short to talk to Hugh Millen.

 Of all people...they go to Hugh.
