For some guy and a 5th round pick. Not very impressive trading by John Schneider.

Yeah, there was no doubt we were going to get much for him. IMO it was always going to come down to either keeping Bennett or resigning Richardson. It looks like they chose Richardson.

Can't expect much more for a dude that is on the wrong side of 30 and with Plantar Faciitis. Plus is always offsides trying to gain an advantage. I totally appreciate his effort as a Hawk and wish him well.

LOL, you click on Marcus Johnson and get a Tampa Bay guard. And that 5th is a decent pick in this draft that is stacked at the Seahawks needs. It can also be used in trades.

Johnson is also a speed guy and a bit bigger than Richardson at 6-1 and 204 lbs. He apparently ran a 4.36 40 at some point.

I lost respect for Bennett over the Las Vegas story he tried to pass. I guess he didn't remember that every inch of the strip has at least one camera on it in every public space. He seemed to lose steam about that time, too. He can take his protests to Philly, where he'll be boo'd.

Nevertheless, He was a great signing for the team at the right time, but the time was up.

He'll be 33, so I'm not sweatin' this move. Great player, wish him well, but the time is Now to start revamping defense with younger blood.

And the small price the Rams collected for Quinn set the market pretty low. The Hawks got about what I would have expected and met their goal of getting younger.

So while I support the move, I will miss Bennett and wish him well.

You lost Quinn and Ogletree so you have nothing to say.

I have the same sentiments as many of the opinions already expressed.

He's 33, has health problems with his feet, knees and legs, can't keep his mouth shut, jumps off sides too much, etc, etc, etc. I think it was great trading by JS getting rid of the cancer when it metastasized.
