    The Seattle Seahawks are open trading linebacker Aaron Curry, Jason La Canfora of the NFL Network reports. Seattle's previous front office/coaching staff used the fourth overall pick of the 2009 NFL Draft on the former Wake Forest standout, who signed a six-year, $60.068 million contract that included $34.01 million in guaranteed money. Curry started 30 of his first 32 games, totaling 145 tackles, 5.5 quarterback sacks and eight passes defensed before he was demoted to the second-team last week in favor of 2011 fourth-round pick K.J. Wright. Curry raised some eyebrows with his comments on Twitter before declaring himself at peace with his demotion and was committed to earning his starting job back. Last month, Curry agreed to a renegotiated contract, voiding the final two years of the deal to hit free agency sooner in exchange for voiding the guarantee from the $5.7575 million base salary he is due in 2012. Curry's $5,076,250 salary this season remains guaranteed.

    You could get him for next to nothing but then you have to eat that big butt contract. I just don't see it being worth while.

    Risky investment but could pay off big for a team.

    Especially a team with little talent at linebacker.
