NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora, in an appearance on NFL Total Access, said the Seattle Seahawks would be willing to trade a fourth-round pick in exchange for RB Marshawn Lynch.

The Bills have kept Lynch despite interest from other teams — Seattle in particular — as he currently ranks third on the depth chart behind both Fred Jackson and rookie C.J. Spiller.

The Seahawks were reportedly interested prior to releasing RB LenDale White and made an offer during the 2010 NFL Draft. Lynch, the former No. 12 overall pick, would covet an opportunity to return to the West Coast alongside former college teammate Justin Forsett.

The Bills are reluctant to make the trade at market value, and Seattle is unwilling to increase the offer sheet. Lynch has attended team facilities but not yet reported to camp. In 2009, he was suspended 3 games for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy.
