That's why they've been so good for so long, they're amazing business people.

I had heard they originally wanted a first-rounder AND MORE... perhaps another first-day pick? The first trade demands I heard seemed astronomical. Relative to that, one first-rounder seems like a bit of a settlement.

there was some other 'business' behind the scenes with Branch

I + for your opinion, but an assumed - for your use of the phrase "big time"

Yeah, they looked UNSTOPPABLE against those badass Lions yesterday...

No one knows how well any of the college star recievers will adjust to the NFL; see the Lions' three #1 draft picks.

except the Vikings outsmarted the Seahawks with his contract - his contract had stipulations giving him SERIOUS tax benefits by NOT playing games in the State of Washington, was a brilliant move by the Vikes because the Seahawks COULDN'T match it.

Under the contract, Hutch loses over 50% of his paycheck for all games played in Washington. Gee, would YOU come back to the Seahawks?

Then the Seahawks played we'll show you by signing Burleson to a STUPID contract for the same money as Hutch. Double Whammy... derrrr!

And the shipped a 3rd round pick for Burleson in compensation...
