Seattle Seahawks for an undisclosed draft pick (probably a seventh rounder)

Not bad. We picked up this guy off waivers 3 days ago and trade him for a 7th that could be used in future trades. I like it.

I think the league should now refer to the act of picking a guy off waivers and trading him for a draft pick as "Mayhewing".

Lions just Mayhewed Tyler Polumbus!!

We did something like this with a QB last year, didn't we. I want to say Kevin to the Jets.

Kevin O'Connell. Yep we did


Sneaky but smart move by Mayhew. Its a 7th but hey a free pick is a free pick

Yeah, I looked that up afterward. It just seemed like prior to this regime we didn't really grab up that many prospects off waivers. Certainlly not grabbing them up to trade them.

How bad is Seattle, you ask? Tyler Polumbus will be their starting LT for the first couple of weeks. Not good enough to land on Detroit's practice squad but the best option they have. Good luck with that, Pete Carroll!

Thats awesome. Its crazy because I used to really think Seattle was a good organization. Now you look at them and all you see is when (Bowden?) the Florida College coach took over Washington and did all kinds of crazy moves.

I think you meant Steve Spurrier
