Recieved CB Josh Wilson for a conditional 5th round, could be 4th depending how many games he plays. Hopefully this will make our secondary better which showed major weakness vs. McNabb.

[RavensAllTheWay]

I like this trade because we got him for the right price. We give up anything higher than a 4th for him and I'm not happy.

[J-man]

Tackles 116
Sacks 2.0
INTs 6

Nice stats, better then T. Fischer.

Hopefully he will be what Washington would have been this year, a quailty number 3 or possibly a number 2.

[DrMoonTooth]

That sounds like a pretty good deal. Just got the notice a moment ago from Schefter.

Shore up that secondary! Dallas bound baby.

I can honestly say that I did not see any sort of trade for CB coming. I really thought we were good with Fab, Webb, Carr, Williams etc....

[MKdave]

This guy looks like he could be good. And a definite candidate to return kicks.

[DrMoonTooth]

Here are Wilson's stats from last year alone:

Games started: 12, Total tackles: 41, Combined tackles: 45, Sacks: 1, Passes deflected: 13, Interceptions: 2, Int. yards: 126, Int TDs: 2.

Not bad. I wonder why the Seahawks only asked for a conditional 4th pick? Even if he costs us a 4th, that sounds like we got a good deal...and his only two interceptions both went for long touchdowns? Ozzie worked his magic.

[JO_75]

Interesting, that adds some much needed corner depth. Wish we would have picked up Fred Bennett and not gave up a pick but hey all well.

[DrMoonTooth]

I think he'll be our #2 if Webb can't go week 1. I feel much more comfortable knowing Carr will play nickel.

[Milton145]

Won't know till we see what he can do.

[DrMoonTooth]

Best part is we didin't have to trade any of our players like McGahee, Barnes, etc.

[Shammy]

he's better than any other DB we aquired in FA with exception to hamlin... he played pretty well in 08

[JohnnyBoy8102]

2007: 12 games, 0 starts, 9 tackles, 1 fr, 14 KR for 385 yards 1 td

2008: 16 games, 12 starts, 76 tackles, 1 sack, 4 int, 3 ff, 2 fr, 9 pd, 69 KR for 1,753 yards

2009: 12 games, 12 starts, 45 tackles, 1 sack, 2 int, 1 fr, 13 pd, 11 KR for 212 yards

I'll take that for a 4th or 5th!!! Wow!

[ooo sugahhh 52]

dont know much about him but he's young, relatively experienced, and rather inexpensive so i'm on board

way to go ozzie

Exactly. Everyone kept saying the only way we could trade for a good CB is by trading a PLAYER. But I knew it wasn't the case.

Wow, that maade me feel pretty good about it.

I guess its kinda like us trading Webb.

[svt2nv04]

Wow, this seems like a terrific trade for us!

[berad]

Great move!

It never fails, just sit back and watch our FO do the work - they're a lot smarter and craftier than we are. Wilson is a great, young DB with a load of talent and potential. He's had a strong preseason this year, too.

That's funny to read. The only thing I don't like about Wilson from what you can read in the stats is that he is listed on NFL.com at only 5'9".

[Ed_Reed20]

He's had an up and down career in Seattle but he's an experienced starter and adds value as a kick-returner. Solid trade.

[J-man]

The guy is a 82 in Madden ... Give Ozzie a raise and make this guy a starter, this could be the best offseason move by us.

[PlayLikeAFan]

Ya seahawks forums are furious about the trade, he doesn't seem to be bad at returning kicks either

"Wilson has also averaged 25 yards on 94 kick returns with one touchdown."

[svt2nv04]

This is just awesome! I have nothing else to say lol

[DrMoonTooth]

Seahawks fans are upset and confused. Here's a quote from one of them:

"Wow.... if we had to trade Wilson, all we could get was a fifth, and that from the CB desperate Ravens? I think we got straight shafted on this one...."

Haha.

Except more experience and better stats....just saying.

Edit - I love Webb, don't misread what I was saying above.

Quote from Dan Kalko on twitter:

Yes, he's a proven guy who can play in dif roles RT @MattMiselis: @DanKolko Is Wilson going to make the roster and see some playing time?

[Ravenmore74]

What do you guy's think that the Jets would want for a Dwight Lowery type of player?
