Even Trade Seattle acquired 2008 2nd round pick (38th overall, John Carlson) from Baltimore Ravens on 2008-04-26, sending 2008 2nd round pick (55th overall, Ray Rice); 2008 3rd round pick (86th overall, Tom Zbikowski) in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: 2008 2nd round pick (38th overall, John Carlson) for 2008 2nd round pick (55th overall, Ray Rice); 2008 3rd round pick (86th overall, Tom Zbikowski). There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.
