I agree to this trade. I know it's a "lot to give up" but it does exactly what I need it to do. I dump a ton of cap and for that add picks that mean nothing to me. I get a rb that in my eyes is much better for a lot cheaper and more control. This goes a long way in me being under cap for next year and still allows me to lose nothing this year in terms of competing. Good Dealing Jets. Good Luck.

[Cardinals GM (Tony)]

McKinnon is a negative. Honestly even if he returns to "what he was" (which is - never quite good enough) he is a negative with that contract. Hyde's contract is a negative. Cooper Rush is pointless but useful since you have Dak. Basically you're the only team in the league that could value him. Then we have a bunch of future Cornerback selections and a 1st that is 2 drafts away and likely to be in the later portion of the draft.

This, to me, is quantity over quality. Really it's two cap dumps being sent out with 5 picks, 4 of which are basically dart throws (although admittedly if you can draft well you can find some decent players), and in return you're getting Dalvin Cook. You should have to give up picks just to get someone to take on the >$100 M in salary between McKinnon and Hyde.

I'd like to hear what Denver sees in this trade. With a deal as big as this one, posting with no rationale doesn't quite cut it for me.

That's my bad, I thought that I included that but obviously forgot.

I think Cook is the beneficiary of a great offense so his numbers are padded to an extent.
I think Cooper Rush is an okay grab as he is a better backup as to what I have now. Hyde is the #1 guy in CLE so I don't lose a starter there. McKinnon is paid this year and half next year so it is not a huge loss, especially if he returns to what he was before injury.
I get a smattering of picks that I can slide a pretty good draft out of especially with my knowledge of college football prospects.
Plus, it was previously mentioned that I will still have my free drop, which means if I can't flip McKinnon for anything, I can cut him for free.
This is, in my mind, Hyde for Cook then a wait and see with the remainder of the pieces.

I have been considering this one for some time now, on first review it looks like a giant cap dump by the Seahawks on a new GM which would not be in the best interest of the league. However, when you consider that the Jets still have an amnesty drop to use on either McKinnon or Hyde in future years, it gets a little more fair.

However, the Jets should be compensated well for taking care of the Seahawks overbidding problems and they are not in this trade in my opinion. In my opinion, Cook is the best RB of the three of them. The Seahawks need to either add another significant player to this deal or take the giant McKinnon contract out of the mix and handle it as a separate trade. Hyde + picks is fair for Cook, but the McKinnon injury and contract just muddy up the trade.

I veto, I agree with Greg and the Cardinals GM on this, marma is dumping a ton on a new owner with very little value in the trade

CURRENT VOTE IS (5-3) - VOTING CONTINUES UNTIL APPROVALS EXCEED VETOS BY 4 VOTES OR 4 VETO VOTES ARE REACHED WHICHEVER COMES FIRST.

Couldn't agree more with Greg. This trade is rediculous. Cook has more future value than any piece in this deal, probably combined. A lot of meh pieces with horrible contracts, paid or not, for a potential top 10 RB. Veto.
