NFL Trade Verdict

Seattle Seahawks Win

Seattle acquired Marcus Burley from Indianapolis Colts / Baltimore Colts on 2014-08-30, sending 2015 6th round pick (206th overall subsequently traded, Aaron Ripkowski) in return. This transaction fits Seattle's broader roster-building record for 2014: targeted asset movement, limited known aftershocks, and no obvious franchise-altering result. The Seahawks' B grade is tied to receiving Marcus Burley while parting with 2015 6th round pick (206th overall subsequently traded, Aaron Ripkowski). Indianapolis Colts / Baltimore Colts's side is graded C because the exchange appears roughly balanced from the available record.
