Seahawks get LB Aaron Curry

This is a good thing. Curry wasn't expected to be available at #4, but the Chiefs unexpectedly took DE Tyson Jackson at #3, opening the door for Seattle. Scouts Inc. graded Curry #1 overall in this year's draft. Reportedly, he has a sterling character and work ethic. Get ready for Tatupu to be the second-best linebacker for the Seahawks.

Cue highlight video:



The bad news: Michael Crabtree went to the 49ers after the Raiders incomprehensibly passed him over.

The Seahawks traded their second-round pick (#37) for Denver's first-round pick next year, which makes absolutely no sense for the Broncos, as they are gonna suck this year.

UPDATE:



Seattle traded back into the second round (again, with Denver) to pick C Max Unger at #49. For this, they gave Denver their 3rd and 4rth round picks this year. BTW: Unger was a player Seattle was originally looking to take at #37 (until Denver made them an offer they couldn't refuse), so essentially Seattle traded their 3rd and 4th round picks this year for a first round pick next year. Here's a good analysis of Unger and how he will fit in at Seattle.

LATE UPDATE:

Reportedly, Unger was an art major at U of Oregon.
