Seahawks in extension talks with Bobby Wagner


Recommended Posts

They are going to trade Wilson for a King's Ransom. Like two first rounders or some poo. Then they'll probably trade Irvin to the Falcons.

There's no such thing as fair trade value for a franchise QB.  I think the media vastly overrates Wilson, but most of the Huddle vastly underrates him.  He isn't an elite QB, but he's better than most.

Early on, it looked like the Chargers really won that trade big that ended up with Eli in NY and Phillip Rivers + a lot in SD, but how does that look now?  The Giants have won two Super Bowls.  It also looked like the Rams won big shipping that #2 pick to the Redskins that became RG3, but neither has done much since, so did anyone really "win"?

If you have a legit starting QB you have to try to keep him.  If you trade him for picks, you better turn one of those picks into a legit starting QB which is a huge roll of the dice.

It doesn't make good business sense for Luke's agent to agree to a new deal before Wagner's agent. Luke's got 2 years left, Wagner's on his last. It would be stupid to let a guy that has never led the league in tackles, didn't win DRoY and has never won DPoY get more money than Luke simply because he's got a ring. And Wagner can't even claim to have a SB MVP. That went to LB Malcolm Smith, not Wagner, despite what a Falcon troll has been saying on this board.

The Rams definitely won that trade are you kidding? That team is stacked with talent all along the defense but hasn't had a quarterback or weapons to take them to the next level.

​Thank you for essentially making my point for me.  You either have a QB or you don't.  You can't "win" a trade without winning on the field.  At the end of the day, all that matters are W's and L's and Super Bowls.

    • fans view “box safety” with the same disdain they have when they hear “game manager” QB.   but there’s a reason most 1st round safeties are “box safeties”-it’s a much longer list of requisite skills to be a good box safety than it is to be a guy whose only real responsibility is to not get beat over the top. Fans crave the ed reed type and as someone who has never been able to enjoy this franchise having a guy like that, I get the enthusiasm-but I’m not really prepared to spend a first round pick on a free safety. If it happens it’ll be fun, it’ll address a need with a good player and that’s well and good. But those guys end up walking after their first contract because their pedigree usually outpaces what their teams feel like they’re adding to their overall win total.
    • Its criminal that the upcoming season is mainly in the tiny hands of BY.  I still member the time I did a full turn, if you member his first off-season from that Panthers all-time worst team....... Answering questions at his first presser, he goes along the lines " I didn't do nothing, no weight room or throwing" " I needed to get away". I was fully out with him, the guy didn't even try to improve his football mind, body, strength, in the biggest joke of panther football. I could not believe it, what a leader or dare say "point guard"(lols @ NBA point guards as a ref)
    • I view FS almost as the NT of the secondary. Oftentimes the true measure of his impact isn't necessarily in the plays that he makes but what he allows you to do with the rest of your defense to allow them to make plays. When you have that elite true sideline to sideline FS safety blanket over the top of the defense it allows you to be a lot more aggressive with everyone else. Where as when you have a Nick Scott as your last line of defense you gotta be mindful to not have to rely too heavily on that.
