All that for a 33 year old. If that trade was a 100m race the Seahawks won it by 6 minutes.

And if Denver wins the Lombardi this coming season was it worth it? It worked for both Tampa Bay and the Rams the past two years.

Wasn’t Brady a FA signing for Tampa? No draft picks were given up. So, it’s not like what the Rams and Denver did.

Sure if they win the SB its worth it. If they don't its not in my book. I am extremely sceptic against trades like that.

I get you, but it is very similar to the moves that the Rams made trading away multiple first round picks and players for Stafford, Jalen Ramsey, and Von Miller in an "all in" move. The NFL is a copycat league.
