Seahawks should look to trade for Jets S Jamal Adams

The Seahawks Trade Verdict

Point: Jamal Adams is on his rookie deal for 3 more seasons if (when) the 5th year option is picked up. If they can grab him for under 2 first round picks, I would jump on it in a heartbeat.

Counterpoint: Outside of potentially changing the locker room dynamic the Jets would have to be out of their minds to trade Adams. The defense should be built around him, not the other way around. The Jets need to find a way to keep him happy, and fast.

Trade Meter: (1 being extremely unlikely, 10 being a near done deal) I would give this a 2.

While this trade would make sense on multitudes of levels for the Seahawks, there is absolutely no chance I would trade Jamal Adams period if I were the Jets GM. Adams is a player that every team dreams about landing in the draft. To trade him away just 2 years into his rookie deal would be suicide for the new Jets GM and his job security.

(Side-note: Over the next couple weeks, I’m going to be writing about players the Seahawks have either been connected to in the rumor mill or player is hope we inquire about. If there are any players, you as the fan are wanting to read about and to see what a potential trade could look like, please comment on this article with the players name and why you want him on the roster.)
