The Seahawks and Titans swung a trade on Wednesday, swapping linebackers with Jerome Baker and a fourth rounder going to Tennessee for Ernest Jones.
The Seattle Seahawks are once again getting in on the trade action ahead of the November 5 NFL trade deadline. With the performance of their linebackers leaving something to be desired through seven games, general manager John Schneider aggressively pursued an upgrade.
Last season, in 15 games, Jones racked up 145 tackles, 4.5 sacks, and 14 tackles for loss for Los Angeles. But despite that success, the Rams traded him to the Titans ahead of this season for a late-round draft pick. So far, he has been one of the best run defenders on the Titans' beleaguered defense, proving to be well-worth the acquisition.
The Seahawks are parting with Baker, who had a short, albeit up-and-down tenure in Seattle. In five games, he had 30 tackles and one sack, but he missed tackles at a 9.1 percent rate. Meanwhile, Jones checks in with a 6.4 rate, which is much better. Baker was making nearly $6.7 million against the cap after signing a one-year contract in free agency. Jones is owed just north of $3 million this season, but that price tag will certainly go up if he plays well down the stretch for the Seahawks.
