Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network had details as to what Denver will be sending Seattle’s way. A lot of draft picks will be heading to the Pacific Northwest, with players potentially being involved as well.

“The Seahawks and Broncos have agreed in principle on a trade sending nine-time Pro Bowl QB Russell Wilson to Denver for a massive haul, including multiple first-round draft picks, plus additional picks and players, per sources,” Pelissero said.

Denver quarterback Drew Lock is part of the deal as well according to Pelissero. He will be heading up to Seattle, entering the final season of his rookie contract.
