Aaron Curry traded to the Raiders for a 7th round pick this year and conditional 2013 pick.
Certainly time to cut losses for SEA...a #4 overall pick, and a top 5 consesus pick from virtually every expert in 2009, but never put the physical skills together with the mentality needed for the pro game.
He was getting outplayed by journeymen and rookies alike in SEA's linebacking corps each year and given every opportunity (and probably more than some teams would give him) but never did impress.
Played the last few games as well, but missed tackles and missed assignments, and spelt the end for him. A nice guy and seems to be a smart guy, but something in Oakland has to change big time for him to become anything out of the bust he's pretty much classified as now.
