Larry Seivers

Seattle acquired 1979 fourth round pick (#116-Dan Manucci) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers on 1977-08-30, sending Larry Seivers in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired 1979 fourth round pick (#116-Dan Manucci) and gave up Larry Seivers, with the available evidence supporting a C+ grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Seattle traded WR Ahmad Rashad, still listed in some records under his former name Bobby Moore, to Minnesota for a 1977 4th-round pick that became Larry Seivers. The Vikings received the lasting value: Rashad became a major piece of their late-1970s passing game. This row needed identity cleanup because Ahmad Rashad and Bobby Moore are the same player. From a trade-value standpoint, Seattle moved a future Vikings receiving star for a mid-round pick; Minnesota received the clear long-term value as Rashad became one of Fran Tarkenton's key targets.
