I've seen this kind of "who cares if he's crazy as long as he wins" rationale before.

It's the same logic that was used to justify getting Terrell Owens.

TO was a WR not a Hall of Fame caliber QB.  Apples and Oranges.

Why the fug would the Seahawks wanna trade him though? Has their relationship soured THAT much? He’s 32 and still has at the very least 2-3 more good years. It doesn’t really make sense since they don’t have anybody waiting in the wings for him.

It could be a good time for them to rebuild.

Theyre going to lose Wright, Wagner is at the end of his career, they really don’t have much outside of Lockett and Metcalf. They don’t have a 1st round pick this year because of the Adams trade. They’re kind of a mess.

Not to mention the Rams and Cardinals are both trending upwards

Their cap situation again isn’t as bad as so many are making it seem.

Well it damn sure ain't good.  They are at the very bottom of the list, 80 million in the red.  Thats not good any way you slice it.

That makes sense. I have no idea about that team right now but they are not scared of big moves.

If he absolutely does not want to play for them, might as well make the most of it...

Every team that actually did wound up regretting it, and nobody got any championships with him.

There are so many things wrong with this post lol like what the hell dude?

Also now that I think about it after their first round loss in the playoffs Carrol acted kind of more sad/heartbroken then what you’d expect. He may have known this was the last year to try to win it all with the group they have. The jamaal trade was a huge move to make. They went all in.

Right lol dude is talking nonsense.

On top of that, Wilson isn't anywhere close to the locker-room problem that Owens was.  Not even close. Like what?

They have a lot of young good player from drafting well recently.

Aren’t they dead last in cap space?

I don't think they'll trade him, but I'd add that we have a GM who probably knows him better than the vast majority of GM's outside of Seattle.

There's no way to know what his feelings are on the topic right now, but if it turns out Fitterer isn't interested, that'd really say something.

You have such terrible takes my god

And they will be so random too.  Like he'll just draw the most random comparisons to try and prove a point

"Hey, ya'll wanna draft Trevor Lawrence?"

"I've seen this kind of love for a Clemson QB before.  His name was Tajh Boyd, and the team that drafted him regretted it."

Yes right now they have negative 80 million in cap space LOL.

What’s crazy is that the Legion of Boom on their way out made it seem like the Seahawks (more Carroll) bowed down to Russell on a whim while they would get nothing but berated. Now the claim by Russell is the opposite lol

Actually, there's been talk of Wilson being a point of contention in the Seahawks locker room for years. Just like the article mentions, some teammates think he gets coddled too much.

It's real easy for fans to sit here and say "Who cares if he's an issue as long as he wins?" For the people whose job it is to have to deal with stuff like this everyday though, it's not that simple.
