The times, well, they are a changing in Seattle.

0:03.8

Big news breaking here on Friday evening, the Seattle Seahawks are trading

0:08.0

Gino Smith to the Raiders.

0:11.8

Ah, Pete Carroll, getting his guy back here in Vegas, and obviously there's a lot to unpack here,

0:19.0

but let's start on the Seattle side first and foremost.

0:22.5

John Snyder and company have been busy. Obviously, they announced that, well, essentially,

0:29.1

they were going to be parting ways with Tyler Lockett, but yet somehow left the door open

1:16.4

be viable for fantasy purposes just because he runs, but for Seattle's purposes, that's not good.

1:23.6

Now, of course, you could bridge. You could, hey, reunite with Russell Wilson if he doesn't stick in Pittsburgh.

1:29.9

Maybe if Justin Fields doesn't stick, you could go after him.
