Deal for Seahawks: Yet another veteran going for cheap. If I was an NFL team, I would definitely trade 2-3 mid round picks for proven vets this offseason. Washington is not a starting caliber back, but he’s an explosive change of pace guy and a Pro-Bowl kick returner, two things the Seahawks really need. He’ll fit in well with LenDale White.
Grade: A
Deal for Jets: They did sell him for cheap, but I understand why they did this. Because they were able to steal Joe McKnight (Leon Washington 2.0) in the 4th round, they could trade Leon Washington and his expiring contract for a 5th rounder.
Grade: B+
