Seahawks offer Wilson $21M/year but Wilson wants more

I just think Seattle could put another QB in that spot and keep plugging along. 

 

Im still just not entirely sold on RW if the rest of the components of the team aren't in place. And if you pay him, they won't be  

 

nobody ever lets their starting QB walk but this is probably the time to do it.

So? Cam's contract is heavily front loaded to offset that. Seattle can just back load Wilson's so they have money to pay guys right now.

Just because Hurney got drunk and threw money around doesn't mean every other team is gonna get screwed.

honestly, if they're at that point where they need to backload contract extensions, it's going to be difficult to maintain their elite status in the NFC (unless they get ridiculously lucky in the draft) because backloading contracts always leads to problems later on.

Seattle has $38,006,832 in cap space next summer, the 9th most cap space in the NFL, as well as $0 in dead money.

The Bengals are the only other playoff team in the top 10 for 2016 cap space.

Their GM knows what he's doing. This general idea that they're gonna be strapped for cash and aren't gonna be able to pay guys is a pipe dream. It's just a fantasy by other fans hoping they fall apart.

Yeah and by all accounts Wilson wants  about 65% of that cap space all for him lol

And we don't? Kuechly, Short, Lotulelei, Norman, Alexander, etc....

Star has a 5th year option. Norman has a half-season of dominant corner play to negotiate with (depending on how this year goes) and Alexander has nothing to hold over us unless he balls out and has like 15 sacks this year. Luke and Short's deal would be the next two deals I would guess are finalized.
