Seahawks offer Wilson a deal in the range of Cam Newton's

I love that the Panthers already have Cam locked up.  Gettleman is doing WORK.  Seattle might lose Wilson at this rate.  

The Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson don't appear to be close on a contract extension, but apparently there is at least one offer on the table.

Seattle has offered their quarterback a deal in the range of Cam Newton's recent extension, according to Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports. That's something Wilson isn't willing to accept.

Oooooohhh, this could get interesting.

It already is.  It could mean a trainwreck season for the Seahawks, distracted by Wilson's contract extention and unsure if their franchise QB will be there next season.  I'm loving this.  Meanwhile the Panthers have their franchise QB locked up and are ready to make a run.

@ProFootballTalk Hearing from folks since posting latest Russell Wilson blurb. Current prediction: He's playing for someone else in 2016.

 

Well that escalated

They can still franchise him.  But they either ridiculously overpay with the exclusive tag or simply overpay with the non-exclusive, giving other teams a chance for two first rounders and an offer the Hawks couldn't match.  Not to mention zero long term stability. I LOVE it.

Wanna REALLY turn the screws?  Sign Luke NOW and piss off both Wagner and Wilson even more with zero way to satisfy both.  (Hell they can't satisfy one)

Go GMan go!!!!!

On another site a poster said RW was definitely worth more than Cam and that they were a 7 win team before he arrived and are now a 12 win team.  I argued the Panthers were a 2 win team (with wins over John Skelton and David Carr) and have averaged 8 post Cam, including the tie as a loss, not including the 2-14 the first two years in one score games lost by a rookie head coach in RR and the #27 D in 2011.  Win differential favors Cam.  Crickets after that.  Classic perception vs reality playing out before our very eyes in Cam/RW being selfish/team first.

what a turd burgler.  if he ACTUALLY thinks he's worth more than Cam to his team, MUCH LESS even remotely close to Rodgers money then he has legitimately went head first off the deep end, bought into his own hype machine.

Even funnier when Cam had an MVP type season and wins a SB while Seattle stumbles and Wilson has a down year... Gonna backfire in his face and lose money.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
