The rumblings about a potential Richard Sherman deal have some validity, GM John Schneider said in an interview with 710 ESPN. While offering the usual caveats about always being willing to listen on any player, Schneider all but confirmed that the cornerback has been discussed with other teams. And, for the right price, Sherman could be moved.

“What you’ve seen lately in the news is real,” Schneider said. “That’s on both sides...it’s just open communication. He knows what’s going on. We know what’s going on. I don’t know if anything would ever happen, but like I tell people all the time, 98 percent of the deals that we’re involved with, we don’t follow through with. But at least we’ve opened that door, gone down the road and seen what’s behind Door A or Door B.”
When the trade talk started in March, Sherman was pretty much laughing it all off. Then, in comments last week, Sherman seemed to take a more serious tone, perhaps intimating that he knew he was made available. Coach Pete Carroll also acknowledged that the Seahawks have talked about Sherman with other teams, though he said he did not envision a trade coming together.
Nothing is imminent on this front, a source tells Jeff Howe of The Boston Herald (on Twitter), but it is a very real possibility closer to the draft. Reportedly, the Patriots are among the clubs that have inquired on the outspoken corner, but it could be a few weeks before Sherman’s future is sorted out.
I’m sure the asking price is astronomical. Which is deservedly so but I don’t see any team offering them what they want.
If they trade him so many fans will be eating crow and all of the sudden calling him the best CB in the league. It will be funny but I sure hope they don’t trade him unless they get a huge hall for him.
Whose going to eat crow? Sherman was a top 15 CBS last year (his worst pro year) and everyone knows he’s really good. Yeah his smack talk gets old, and some people over react when responding, but for the most part nobody has ever said Richard Sherman wasn’t a top CBS. That said, I think the Seahawks defense helps him out (style/formation) but he could be a fit on any team.
