If it's really about getting GTD money in line with those guys and that's the hold up Wilson and his agent should just walk right out the door and demand a trade. That's patently ridiculous.

I agree with Budda.
Especially the part about seeing Seahawks fans hating on Russ.

No, IMO, there’s something else going on because I cannot believe the team would not make him the highest paid QB.
There’s speculation Wilson wants 18% of the salary cap, If this is the case, would you agree?
If this agreement was in place today, his cap number would not be 17Mil, it would be 31Mil. Next year it would be 34Mil. This would make resigning players extremely difficult.
Traditional contracts backload money, spreading guaranteed money or bonuses over the life of the contract. You can’t do this under his 18% salary cap demands. It like tagging Wilson every year.
IMO, his 18% pay based on salary cap demand is a poison pill.

What in the world are you talking about? We paid all of our best players top contracts, including Marshawn, Russ, Bobby, Earl, Kam, Sherman, Bennett, KJ, Doug, and Lockett. Last time around on Russ we made him the 2nd highest paid player in NFL history right behind Aaron Rodgers. Who are the "best players" that you think we didn't pay, and in what version of reality that features a salary cap do you think we could have paid them?DrDix":t6wogue5 said:Why does this team consistently just refuse to pay the star players, our best players? The god damn franchise QB we have and still nothing. If fans should be upset at anyone it's the front office who consistently love to refuse to pay players who deserve it and thus alienate not only the players themselves but the fans.

Every other team that is in need of a QB would sign Russ to what he deserves in an instant but nah we're the Seahawks, it's our way. Doesn't matter if you're by far the most important piece to the puzzle of this team or not.
If this is the case trade him that would be the poison pill we don't do well IMO on first rounders but get the 1st for him and trade down Kap durning his tenure was very good.truehawksfan":132mnp41 said:So, does anyone really think the Hawks wouldn’t give Wilson the guaranteed money he’s demanding?
