Pick #5 is the floor: Seahawks and Geno Smith agree to 3-year extention per @NFL

Gotta get to three minimum now, can still get one of the top three before Seattle does. 

I honestly feel like it’s 1 or bust

I have been against trading for Lamar because I don’t think you can do picks + a huge contract and be successful but to trade to 3 for Levis or Richardson comes with a lot of risk for someone you clearly weren’t 100% sold on

I think it could still cost our next two 1st rounders to get to pick 3 anyways. So by trading for Lamar, we save a 1st rounder but take a massive blow to our future cap space but we also know what Lamar is. 

I’m firmly in the boat of getting to pick 1 and keep tossing Chicago picks until they say yes but if Indy gets it then I really don’t know. Maybe Houston moves up and we end up at 2.

I would love to be listening in on these trade calls. You gotta feel RP is alternating between Indy, HOU and us at the least.

I’m all for getting Lamar, I know it’s not to popular around here, but I think it’d be great. If they can’t get him, I’m fine with a rookie…any of them but Levis. It’s going to be interesting to watch how this all plays out.

Between the salary he wants (and wants guaranteed) plus having to give up picks for him, can't get on board with that.

My thoughts as well. Money or picks, not both.

Plus it just makes you wonder if LJ is that level of franchise QB, why isn't Baltimore falling all over themselves to get him inked? I have a feeling there's more to this than just the guaranteed money holding them back.

I just can’t see him getting fully guaranteed even if it’s with a new team. If the reports are true and all the ravens offered was 133, who’s to say a team can’t say 150 or 175?

They got geno on 3yr deal, they may be targeting AR as a project still

I can’t edit my previous quote. What I mean is 175 guaranteed out of a 250 mil contract something like that.

Still too much for a guy who's been injured as much as he has.

Hurt like friggin hell

Everyone expected this to get done.  That's the reason hardly any mocks had Seattle drafting QB even though one would have in all likelihood been available.

The amount though? Ew wee mane did they overpay for ole Geno.

[Icege]

Great move for them and the Panthers. Gives the Seahawks flexibility at #5 and gives the Panthers a better shot at a QB.

QB carousel picking up speed...
