papazoid Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) you are making this up you know what's holding up this trade ?? (QUESTION) butler hasn't/won't sign his tender. (FACT) until he signs his tender, NE can't trade him. (FACT) butler & a pick to SEA for Richard is very likely (very likely...... might be a bit strong) (Report: Patriots have expressed interest in Richard Sherman trade) http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/04/05/report-patriots-have-expressed-interest-in-richard-sherman-trade/ Note: a new report says NE is no longer interested Edited April 7, 2017 by papazoid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Sherman is involved in the trade effort, but he’s looking to play for a contender and wouldn’t cooperate with trade talks if the talks are with a bad team. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/04/07/richard-sherman-is-involved-in-trade-effort-wants-to-go-to-a-contender/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like he wanted to flirt with the media on this. Pretty decent off season chewing gum imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) The Seahawks are willing to trade him for the same reason that the Patriots traded Richard Seymour or Chandler Jones. They ARE about to run into MAJOR cap issues over the next couple of years. Some of these guys won't be back. You try to get back assets to replace them instead of letting them walk (a la Gilmore) with nothing to show. Teams make moves like this when the return will be greater than any compensatory pick that they could possibly receive. This is a problem that only really good (and deep) teams have. Most teams can allocate their cap dollars to their 5-10 best players. When you have 12-15 guys in that mix though it changes things.Not according to ESPN. Seahawks have plenty of cap room and no viable replacement for Sherman on the roster. Pete Carroll is simply tired of this guy's act. No, thank you. http://www.espn.com/blog/seattle-seahawks/post/_/id/25167/richard-sherman-trade-buzz-seahawks-asking-price-suitors-more Edited April 8, 2017 by mannc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 ...pretty surprising for Pete.......he is a rah rah players' coach....... Sherman is not a team guy. He's taken numerous shots (publicly) at the coaching staff and his teammates. Carroll is a very positive guy and I think Sherman's act just rubs him the wrong way, as it should.

Bill_with_it Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Hopefully he can be traded to the CFL any person knowingly lying while his main purpose was to takenout a kicker that could have been career ending is complete an utter trash. His goal was to hit Carpenter to ensure a he wouldnt make it and b if he had to try again he wouldnt make it with no regard for Carpenters health or career. Its completely unacceptable, inexcusable, and he is trash for lying about it. I undrstand injuries occur, however, when thats your goal and to get to the goal you have to knowingly break a rule, and then lie about it, yeah hea trash.

cba fan Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) These players want it all. According to report Cheap Shot Sherman asked for trade than pretty much denied it to media. Then report is he would only accept trade to contender. Teams should not bow down to players like this. If he wants a trade he has a right to ask for one. Hawks should then be able to trade him to whoever offers best deal. I would make a bad GM. If player asks for trade when he has a no trade clause I would say sure. Waive the no-trade and I will trade you to team who offers the best deal. Otherwise go pound sand. If Cheap shot Sherman does not have a no trade clause I would have already traded him and let the new team worry about if he will report.
