Seahawks seeing Green After Trade With Bears
The Chicago Bears announced on Tuesday they have traded safety Mike Green to the Seattle Seahawks for a sixth-round selection in the 2006 draft.
Green spent his first six seasons in the Windy City after the Bears selected him in the seventh-round as the “Mr. Irrelevant” pick (254th and final) of the 2000 draft.
He appeared in 81 games total, including 45 starts, with Chicago and recorded 437 tackles, six sacks and four interceptions in that span. Green tallied a career-high of 138 tackles in 2002 and only current Bear Brian Urlacher has registered more tackles from 2001-05 than Green.
The trade now gives Chicago six picks in the upcoming draft, including two in the sixth round.
