I suspect these contract expectations and the prior acrimonious last negotiations with Wilson's agent had a great deal to do with the underlying reasons for the team trading Wilson.

Frankly he's just not worth what he is asking to receive. I don't care how good he used to be there needs to be money spent on both sides of the ball and $50 mil/yr. guaranteed to one player doesn't allow that to happen easily or at all.

The whole league is going to have to rationalize these QB salaries or face a situation where franchise QBs will be moved around a good bit making their teams less competitive long term with their contract expectations.

My money on Russ gets his contract in coming months before the season starts, just too risky not to. Why? Let's see:

Injury
that mediocre OL
that WR at best same as seahawks
that HC/OC never coached someone like Russ

prepare to be flamed for posting a "non seahawks" related thread. some people on here take the boards incredibly seriously
flame away. it's the offseason. if we can't post about our 'former' 'franchise' defecting QB - then **** it.

don't care THAT much. Just proves the fact that him and his agents were/and are douches.

Wait till all the mid-season stories come out from ex-hawks - wager/etc - once they aren't afraid of ******* their own deals up for the coming year. It's gonna be an exercise in ex-officio prima donna analysis.

so ******* glad he's gone. know who else is? PC! Ha. Decode all the shit that he's not saying ;)

Hey 63 you do realize that there are already a few Bronco fans that are shouting & posting their displeasures at the idea of him demanding to get paid the Lions share of the Team's Cap Money, echoing what some of the Seahawks Fan base has been doing for awhile?
CONSIDERING that the winningest Quarterback in the history of the NFL, TOM BRADY has been demanding A LOT LE$$, leaving the teams he plays for, enough money to keep better players in the fold.
GREED= Eatin' a heapin' helpin' of Wagu Beef Ribeye, while the rest of your teammates are eatin' Chicken Hotdogs? Nope.

So glad he’s gone!

Some person here will believe he is worth it but in all accounts, the QB is roughly 1/3 of game planning.

You still need to be effective on runs and defense.

As long as PC is head coach, PC does not need a $50M QB, who has obvious flaws and isn’t a great team leader by any means either.

Not all rumors are true but not all rumors are unmerited either.

Remember when Wilson said he wanted to play for Seattle his entire career? What happened to those dreams?

Players should demand as much as they can get. That's really the only this league is balanced (and one reason why Brady has won so much,). I'm fine with that As long as they realize that maximizing their contract will impact their team's chance of winning. Once they start saying they are "all about winning", well the bullshit starts to stink and they deserve getting called out for saying so.

100 percent. Gonna be tough to win when one guy eats up 50 mill per year. They make the playoffs but they will never win a super bowl...which is good news for the seahawks. I think we can all say the shit he was saying was just that..bs. No different from any other player I guess but he is very much on the Aaron Rodgers side of the spectrum.

It means you've been added to his blocked list. Probably not too many left he hasn't blocked for not drinking the wilsontown kool aid.
I had the honor of being among the first to be blocked.
