It's a **** haul. God help us.


I hear ya, man.

Going to be awhile before we find another QB as talented as Russ. If ever. Lengthy rebuild is incoming and I'm not sure that Jody Allen really even knows it.

So you do a complete rebuild but leave Pete? That makes 0 sense to me. You're going to have a 71 year old coach heading into the season with the understanding they're not going to be good for probably 3 years at the minimum unless they secure a franchise QB.

I really have no idea what is going in Seattle.

There is more to come....

You're right. Pete isn't looking to completely rebuild. The team is clearing signifcant cap space. I just have a weird feeling that another move (QB potentially) is coming.

That's my gut feeling: Deshaun to Seattle for this year's #9, #40, #41, next year's SEA FRP and DEN picks (1st and 2nd rounder)

That would be three FRPs and three 2nds for Watson.

Seattle can reload the position, mostly using capital from this Wilson trade.

It seems crazy to me to give up anything tangible for Watson until his legal situation resolved.

Going after Deshaun makes sense, depending on the cost.

If they can get him for less than they got for Wilson and he gets his legal issues resolved.. Seattle played all of us.

We will see.

Seeing him in another uniform will be weird AF.

My take is they've had interest in Watson. But they won't get in a bidding war. So he'll end up elsewhere.

It's clear they want to replicate the early LOB years. Have a young cost controlled QB for the next 4 to 5 years. While also having more cap space available to use on other area's of the team.

You mean they haven't been trying to develop pro bowl or all pro level CBs and safeties all these years since the LOB?

That's why they gave up draft capital for Adams?

You know how the league works.

When you pay a QB (market value) there is less to go around. Teams with good QB's on rookie contracts are viewed as having a clear advantage. More cap that can be spread out.

The same reason the Niners drafted Lance last year. Now plan on dumping Garoppolo.

Ya we've reached that point in football.

When Dak is making 40 million a year, you are pretty much guaranteed to never win a super bowl. Its almost no mans land to pay anyone but the truly elite that much money.
