Walker to the Chiefs

[FrodosFinger]

Just saw the update on FA frenzy

 

[12thManInTheBox]

It was inevitable… hope we can bag Allgeier, draft another stud, and/or expect a McIntosh big leap in the Fall… maybe some of all of the above.

 

[nwHawk]

Thank you for your service, Kenny. Next man up!

 

[BobbySwagner]

I hope it’s a bag!!! Gimme that 3rd round comp pick for 27!

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep, done deal​

​

Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker heading to Kansas City​

If there's one thing that Patrick Mahomes has never really had in his NFL career, it's a star running back, but that's going to change this year. Seahawks running Kenneth Walker has agreed to terms on a deal with the Chiefs in a move that should instantly improve Kansas City's offense.
Walker got the deal done just 24 minutes into the tampering period and then made the announcement on Twitter.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Good luck in KC kid. Proud you were a Hawk.

 

[12thManInTheBox]

3 years. $45M. $28.7 fully guaranteed. My god. He had to go for that.

 

[BobbySwagner]

Sounds like highest paid ever for a rb in free agency and most guaranteed-just watching fa frenzy. 45 million 3 year deal 15 a year. Just reported.
Sorry no links just watching it live. Can delete if not allowed.

 

[James in PA]

I hate that he's gone, but no way we were matching that. I'm not mad about it.

Let’s try to remember that no deal is done until Wednesday. These are just agreements. Although they usually are followed through there are cases where they never become official.

We never do well with these kind of second signings, seems everytime they get injured and or tail off rapidly.

Happy for K9 to get paid!

K9, will always be a Seahawks Legend!

Thanks for the Super Bowl and thanks for all the plays you made for Seattle!

Go get your money, I ain’t mad at ya!

All love for K9!

3 YEARS, 43-45 mil, according to ESPN. WAY too much, imo. Glad we moved on.
Got that bag. Great dude and a hell of a player. Good fit for him. He also played college ball at Michigan State, so weather is not a factor. He gets to play with Patrick fricken Mahomes.

 

[ivotuk]

Good for him, praying he stays healthy.

 

[classicaaron]

cant blame him at all. got some serious cash and stays with a superbowl contender. best of both worlds

I'm passing on what is being reported, with links. I kind of thought that's what we're supposed to do.

 

[Aircrew]

Congrats brochacho, really happy you got a payday and can't thank you enough for all you did as a Hawk.

 

[samwize77]

Good for K9. Not sad at all at the loss....WAY WAY to much for a running back.

 

[Mad Dog]

I’d agree that’s too much cash for a RBBC guy. He’s not durable enough to bell cow. But I wish him the best. As for KC, I think you had bigger needs than a platoon back.

He's from Memphis, TN so he's much closer to home. Glad we didn't pay that but I have always loved K9. Best of luck to him. We do play the Chiefs in Seattle this year. So no luck then.
