this is just pundits talking for the sake of it
think about it, that ~$11m in cap space could help you sign an EDGE under the age of 30 who could give you, say, a 13% pressure rate, 9 sacks and a defensive TD here and there
get in the car weβre doing first-round running back discourse
"drake thomas was a useful role player in a super bowl season!!!"
how could I have complaints about them giving fake money to a fictional character
comparable to or slightly cheaper than ERFA-tendering him, gets you an extra year of control. no complaints!
devastated that we didn't get to see The Moment
she's taking questions from a room full of cops rather than journalists, so they're either not aware or too institutionalized to bring it up
oh god this is so funny
was about to doom but decided to temporarily soothe my soul with the PFF RNG machine instead
The Seahawks cash conundrum and the fifth-year options www.fieldgulls.com/seattle-seah...
I have all the faith in the world in Macdonald/Durde/Hinds' ability to get the most out of defensive linemen
At this price point, you're probably just better off drafting a pass rusher
PS I cannot recommend "No One Is Talking About This" highly enough, it is alternately hilarious and shattering
I know Bluesky has the juice because I find myself thinking the words "slut gnomes of false Berlin" roughly as frequently as I think about the Miette tweet (solely on the strength of which I later bought Patricia Lockwood's novel)
The thought thatβs been in the back of my mind (and is partially driving how I feel about this) is that Kupp may just decide to retire this offseason
Immediately pining for the Oregon Coast (or Tofino, idrc)
Decided on a whim it's time to replay the original Life Is Strange, a game for which I have way more affection than I ever thought "awkward French homage to John Hughes but it's an adventure game" would elicit
that old boozehound is just sitting at Dino's doing maskirovka and laughing at us
you'd also think that now that the team is actually on the block, the estate can be more confident that it's not actually going to have to bear those future costs β I don't know how the escrow system actually works, but surely there will be some mechanism for them to cash out on change of control
sure, but it's hard to actually attribute how much of that goes in the respective "we're doing fiscal restraint" and "we don't actually need to spend money because we're getting crazy mileage out of a bunch of cheap young players" buckets
there have been multiple moments where various Seahawks players talked about Shaheed's return TD in week 16 with an almost mystical tone β it seemed like an inflection point burned in their minds (essentially the positive version of how the Rams internalized the Charbonnet 2-point conversion)
Kupp probably gone after next year anyway; JSN's cap hits won't really spike for two more years yet. There is absolutely nothing stopping you from paying Shaheed. He's a great vibes guy who is both a good WR2/3 and a special teams menace. Do it even if you think there's redundancy with Horton tbh.
telling my kids about the old days when "legislator is recorded physically assaulting a veteran in uniform" was the kind of behaviour you could safely assume would result in at least a resignation
I also don't fully buy "ownership are being stingy with cash flow pending the sale", because (a) you're not going to be on the hook for most of that money anyway and (b) retaining good players who won you a Super Bowl should be a good thing in the eyes of potential buyers
Seahawks are very keen for it to be known that their priority is getting JSN and Spoon deals done, but that's not super convincing given (I think?) most of that new money won't even hit the cap until 2028, assuming they use fifth-year options as they did for Cross.
