The Seahawks have traded DE Bryce Fisher to Mike Reinfeldt and the Tennessee Titans for a draft pick. In a separate move, the Seahawks acquired QB Charlie Frye from the Cleveland Browns for a draft pick.

Fisher lost his starting spot to Darryl Tapp, and the Seahawks recently added DE Jason Babin, as well as DT Ellis Wyms (who can play on the outside as well). $2.4 million is a lot of money to pay an aging defensive end that is slipping down the depth chart. Fisher is scheduled to make a total of $5 million over the next two years (including this season).

Charlie Frye's numbers are not representative of how well he has played for a terrible Cleveland team. Frye is only in his third year, but has already started 19 games. He gives the Seahawks a legitimate 3rd QB. The roster finally looks normal with 9 defensive linemen and 3 quarterbacks.
