The Buffalo Bills have finally shuffled RB Marshawn Lynch out of Buffalo and he now becomes a member of the Seattle Seahawks. The Buffalo Bills were denying yesterday, as they have all preseason, that the Bills would keep Lynch, which I stated yesterday in this column made no sense whatsoever given the massive holes the Buffalo Bills have to fill.

Jay Glazer of FoxSports is reporting via Twitter that the Seattle Seahawks will have to surrender a 4th round pick in 2011 and a conditional pick in 2012.

Adam Schefter is reporting via Twitter that the Seattle Seahawks thought they had a deal for Lynch last week and had already drawn up press releases to the fact.

The Seahawks released Julius Jones after announcing the trade deal this afternoon.

Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers sit without a legitimate running back.
