If this is true, dumbest move this year by far.

PLease say it isnt so or at least give us a higher round then fifth!

Josh is a proven ball hawker, game changing nickel back.

Speed is only one part of Kick Coverage. Hands, breaking tackles, and field vision are way more important..

Carroll says that they did it because of the emergence of Thurmond and the return to form of veteran Marcus Trufant. Also, because of Kelly Jenning's "play".

bull crap.....
we could have gotten a fifth for jennings because the ravens were desperate for a corner.
im so angry.

wilson is the reason we won the titans game and the reason thomas had that pick against the vikings such a bad move.

i do like thurmond and roy lewis.

Saw this on another site....Asked me even more pissed about this bullshit trade..


Here's the skinny: Josh Wilson is a 25-year old corner and former second-round pick that has amassed in three seasons, and mostly on very poor pass defenses, more value than an average fifth-round pick amasses in their entire career. He is a ball hawk and an impresario of the pick six. In two seasons starting, he has six interceptions and three returned for touchdowns. Wilson has averaged 43.5 yards per interception.
... He is an excellent nickelback, a sound and sometimes punishing open field tackler (Wilson forced three fumbles in 2008) that has shown improving cover skills. His tools, minus his height, are off the charts. He ran a legitimate 4.39 forty at the 2007 NFL Combine. That showing bests all defensive backs in the 2010 class. Every single one of them. 58 of the very best talents in college football, including Eric Berry, Earl Thomas and Taylor Mays, and not one ran a faster forty than Wilson. He also flashed a 36.5 inch vertical, popped 20 reps on the bench and scored a 29 on the Wonderlic. Seattle just turned what every team hopes a second-round pick can become into a fifth-round pick.

There has to be something behind the scenes that made this trade happen because Carroll's excuse is bullshit. You don't get rid of talent because guys a few years younger are "emerging".
