Geno will be back in 2023 (Ian Rapoport)

[Maelstrom787]

Didn't see this posted yet. Rapsheet reports Geno will be back with Seattle in 2023, either via extension or via tag

Holy crap, GEON is the nickname

He definitely earned it. Geno played good enough to get the team 9 wins and a playoff berth, and could've got more wins with a better defense. Hopefully the defense makes a big jump forward next season, and they can get to AT LEAST 11 wins.

Will Geon Slanders write back on the contract that Seattle's gonna write him?

The following is the opinion tweet Dov uses as a spring board for his tweet .......



................. this story will continue on and on for weeks until a contract is eventually signed.

I certainly hope so, but it all looks like speculation to me.

 

[Maelstrom787]

"I'm told Geno Smith WILL be back with Seattle in 2023." That's straight from Rapoport's mouth. Says they'll work on a deal, or they'll be expected to use the tag if it comes to that.

That's past speculation

He will be back...followed by if they can work out a deal, or if they use the tag. I hate reporters.

On the sideline I just saw JS mouth the words" Geno is just gone".

But I'm not that great at lip reading. I suppose he coulda said "just get me a bong".

Maybe John realized how bad this team is and Geno is gone to chase a ring since the writing is on the wall.

The Seahawks have much bigger problems than QB.

 

[Optimus25]

At some point this was a big deal to me.

Now idgaf at all.

This defense is so horrific nothing else matters.

I really like Geno. But I don't want to pay him north of 30 million a year. I just don't think you can win like that. Look at the Bills paying Allen 30 million and they just got it handed to them by Cincinatti.

All John has to do is slap the transitional tag on Geno, and no team is going to give up two firsts to sign him.

It also neuters Geno and his agent's ability to leverage other teams in trying to drive up the price. Geno played great, but unlike other top 10 QB's that other GM's would absolutely entertain giving up 1st rounders to get, he isn't going to command that sort of interest.

So really all we're talking about is how little John needs to offer Geno to not piss him off. Me thinks it'll be somewhere in the high 20M range with a LOT of incentive bonuses.
