Re: More Than One Outcome- Trade Up The #5 Pick
I don’t think the perception was it wasn’t. Just that Pete wasn’t going to let someone just line up in the pistol or gun and throw it all the time. Wilson wants to be Brady and Mahomes. He’s not. That was the problem. In that case? Pete WAS holding him back, but not in a bad way. Russ just didn’t get it. The more I watch Geno this year, the more I wonder if the QB with the more traditional measurements is the one Pete actually wants? This looks like a more Waldron lead offense than before.Donn Beach wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 7:35 amHard to argue these days they don't, pretty amazing shifting perceptions.Pharmabro wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 6:53 amIf we trade him we gather more picks to build a good nest.

They have a QB friendly system.

Yes there is. Just will have to go cheap in other areas. Cut mone, Harris, and Jackson you have Genoa money. Then you have 18-28 million to spend on free agents. This is after signing depth and draft picks. They can push some money around. If a franchise is used all 31-35 is on the current seasons cap. If the sign him. Tons 5 year with 3 years guaranteed he can cost a lot less. Then go to town on line backers and dline. And a center.Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 3:30 pmThere's no room to tag Geno and re-sign you're players along with you're rookie class.

Honestly John will trade down and get picks. Then that will save a million or so as you pay for draft picks.

Re: More Than One Outcome- Trade Up The #5 Pick
After dead cap hit, cutting Harris would save 8.5, Jackson 6.5, Mone 2.5. 17.5 Million total there, but you'd have to replace them, so really you'd only net about 10 at best.
Also, I don't like cutting Harris. He's been arguably the best DL we had this season. Getting rid of Jefferson would make a lot more sense, and save almost as much money (4.5M). I don't think you can replace Harris' productivity for that extra 4M. I do think they have to cut bait with Jackson, though. He's been a liability all season and costs $11M. He's not worth anything close to that, so replacing that with a veteran, draft pick, or I still think Curhan would make a good guard, should be easy enough.
I would guess they restructure a couple of guys, maybe those mentioned, maybe Adams, Tyler, or Quandre? That gets too complicated for my math skills, but they're the most expensive. All said and done, I think the Seahawks can afford around $30M for Geno if they essentially just use draft picks and bottom of the barrel FAs.

No would net more than 10. You are going to draft dline. Adams did better than Collier. He’s cheapSeattleAddict wrote: ↑Sun Jan 15, 2023 4:02 amAfter dead cap hit, cutting Harris would save 8.5, Jackson 6.5, Mone 2.5. 17.5 Million total there, but you'd have to replace them, so really you'd only net about 10 at best.

Re: More Than One Outcome- Trade Up The #5 Pick
The only way they can make it happen is if they extend Geno out to about 3-4 years on the franchise tag. It'd be too tight on a 1 or 2 year deal in my opinion.Gametime wrote: ↑Sun Jan 15, 2023 2:41 amYes there is. Just will have to go cheap in other areas.

I really wanna see them go after DL in FA too so who knows. That defense needs a lot of work.Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Sun Jan 15, 2023 6:07 amThe only way they can make it happen is if they extend Geno out to about 3-4 years on the franchise tag.

Re: More Than One Outcome- Trade Up The #5 Pick
I do too. I'm hoping we can get Geno back, but that he'll take a hometown discount. We have SO many holes on defense and nothing at QB. And there aren't any mid round QB's worth taking. Carroll and Schneider have their work cut out for them.HawkandMariner88 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 15, 2023 6:37 amI really wanna see them go after DL in FA too so who knows.

Re: More Than One Outcome- Trade Up The #5 Pick
Yeah, wasn't thinking of it in that way really. Hadn't thought it through, not sure what QB friendly really means. I was thinking in terms of development. Hadn't thought of the system being particularly strong, the offence isn't that great. It was always about the defenseMichael K. wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 5:34 pmI don’t think the perception was it wasn’t.
