Sure has been a significant roster churn. However, it was overdue by at least a season. I fully expect Thomas to be gone too b/c the are not going to pay him the reported $55 mil deal he seens to be seeking.

Change is good, change is good, whistle a happy tune. lots of good pieces here still.

Looking like a 4th round comp pick

Surprised the Seahawks couldn't/wouldn't beat this offer

Thanks A-Dog!

Updated.

It appears the team has come to terms with WR- Jaron Brown, term as yet unknown

Thanks my friend! Akeem King was tried out last season on the PS as CB. He fits the standard physical profile Pete prefers for a CB. Him playing S wouldn't be much of a stretch.

As well failed to note:

Bob Condotta reports the team has signed SS- Maurice Alexander

Looks like Seahawks have signed safety Maurice Alexander. Was released by Rams in October and took a visit to the Seahawks last fall but did not sign then.Bob Condotta added,

Yep, good to see Turf! Typical happy Lab

You might say he has a nose for the ball and works for food.

Nope. Since they signed Ed Dickson, Richardson is now canceled out. No comp pick at all.

The dollar amount would likely equal 4th round comp pick currently

As I mentioned in the "comp pick situation" thread, the Seahawks are currently down to one comp pick due.

However, once other teams sign some more of our UFAs (very likely), we will recoup some of our comp picks, including (likely) the 4th round pick for Richardson.

Seahawks trade a 2020 conditional 7th round pick to The Brown for CB- C J Smith.

I have the Ed Dickson cap hits as follows -

2018 - $1,866,667
2019 - $5,433,332
2019 - $5,433,332

Brady Henderson from ESPN came out with exactly the same number for the 2018 cap hit, too.

Jaron Brown cap hit in 2018 is - $1,775,000. All guaranteed.

Thanks OP!

Interesting stuff!

You should start a cap thread.your information posted on this site as far as the cap,and the future with the cap is worthy of it’s own thread. JS has a plan that will give flexibility next offseason. Contract structure which seems back end loaded is playing towards that reality.

All in all there is some genuine talent and much demonstrably unproven talent on the roster at present. The team is now in fair shape as far as the cap but struggles with the numbers of signed players. To me this may be an unintended negative hangover of one year contracts which while presenting opportunity for comp picks leaves the team looking for players to raise the nipumbers to 90. This sadly conflicts with the comp picks as necessity requires signing FAs.
