Seahawks Release Sidney Rice

[Cary Kollins]

His aunt sometimes cuts my hair at Great Clips.  I approve.

[Argus Plexus]

I wouldnt say no

[RoaringRiot]

Given that he was just released and has the "always injured" label attached to him, I would think he'd have to take a substantial paycut to stay around.

I doubt it will be as significant as you think. His name alone puts him at the top of available WRs now.

Considering Smitty is the only WR under contract I think it would be a decent gamble.

Wrong! Mcnutt & King are under contract

I could see him signing a cheap 1 year deal to come home to the Carolinas and prove his worth.  If he doesn't work out, just cut him in training camp.  I don't think he'll end up with another massive deal at this stage in his career, but if he puts up a big year somewhere on a 1 year deal, he might get one a year later.

I want him solely because we only had 2 former Gamecocks on the team this past year.

you have the most compelling argument in this thread.

@PFF: Rice will shoot to near top of FA WR rankings. Played well in '12, showed top end talent with elite '09 & only 27. Likely need prove it deal

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

6'4 red zone target is availible(bc of injury history yes n will be cheap)...huddle says say "pass" like they are Marty Hurney.

A healthy Sydney Rice is better than Lafell or Hixon or probally McNutt.

I guess we are waiting for Calvin Johnson? Bc Rice, Nicks, Maclin all really productive WRs are not good enough for the huddle.

Similar to Hixon in my mind in terms of where he's been, but I'm not sure if he's ever been able to get his knee right? 

 

I remember at one point during the last offseason he flew to Switzerland to have his knee worked on. 

 

If he's finally gotten his knee right and the price is right, why not bring him in and kick the tires?

Most likely out of our price range.

they wouldnt be releasing him if he was able to stay on the field, it's a shame he is injury prone, such a nice player when healthy.  seahawks paid a ton for two injury prone viking wr's
