Hawks open up $9m in cap space restructuring Metcalf

[LeveeBreak]

Could they be opening up space for next year though for extending someone like Cross if he keeps balling? Would cost major $$$$

Absolutely. Cross, ballers on D, etc. An immenent OL signing (or other position) is not a forgone conclusion.

Is Cross a FA next season?

A tip of the hat to JB and how he pounds in that song.

Recorded at Headley Grange , in the stairwell with it's unique acoustics.

Yep. With controversary on how they set it up. Where were the mics, settings, etc. No doubt one of the most identifiable drum intros of all time.

No but we can extend after this year and if he keeps up last week's form we should before the price gets ridiculous later on

 

[Jegpeg]

I am no cap expert but from what I have read we have quite a cap hole for 2025 and we can roll over cap space from this year into next year. Even before optional extentions

Even without extentions we will need to cut or restructure contracts to meet the 2025 cap.

Is there anyway the Seahawks can keep Tyler Lockett after this year with that contract?

Probably not. His deal would have to be re-worked in some way.

The Seahawks have 6 players who have salaries and/or roster bonuses of $10M+ in 2025. Those 6 players are due just over $110M, all of which will count against the 2025 cap. The Seahawks can, and will, move a lot of that cap into later years - if the players stay. There aren't many longer term contracts or cap hits beyond 2025. There isn't any real pressure to move money back this year. It's just extra flexibility in case an opportunity pops up.

I mean, yeah, but why do that in week 1 when you can do it toward the end of the season. This move sounds like they want something done before the trade deadline.

Or a necessity. Just sayin'

 

[MORGULON]

One would think. Why would they do it just to say "see we have more cap space to look at."

And they chose to absorb Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs cap hits this season IIRC so they can get it over and off their books

Dremont might be the next one to be off the books if he doesn't play well.
