yo seahawks fans, i need some answers.
so based on some of the reports, the contract issues between RW and Hawks, both parties are about 10s millions apart.
i heard that the seahawks are offering around 80ish mill, but russell is firm with 100+ mill.
i thought this guy was the nicest guy in the world. shit, with 80 mill + endorsements, he doesn't need all that money and he portrays himself like he is a perfect dude.
i don't want to judge him, but the guy sounds greedy and fake.


Wilson can all but ask for whatever he wants and he knows he'll get close to that number. He has all the leverage in the matter, it's a win-win for him regardless.

Seahawks pay him close to what he wants, win.

Seahawks let him walk and he gets handed a huge contract in FA, win.

Who are the Hawks gonna replace him with? They're going to pay him.

He is a nice guy but that doesn't mean he's not going to try to get what he is worth in this current market.

Can't really blame Wilson or any qb for that matter for trying to ask for what the current market dictates the price should be.

And what do you mean by fake? Greedy maybe but I'm sure his agent has some part in this as well.

Are you saying that just because you're "nice" you should just let people walk all over you? Well that's stupid lol.

At the end of the day, NFL is a business and Wilson is a employee of that business. You gotta try to get what you can when you can because you never know what can happen in the NFL. Any game could be your last game.

I don't blame him for wanting to get what he wants. He produced results for the past 3 years (ofc stellar defense and running game helped) as far as contract talk in concerned but if he walks away from Seahawks, so be it, I don't blame him.

So for fantasy football, how high do you put Jimmy Graham on your list of draft?

I would absolutely consider drafting Graham in the first or second round, honestly.

I am clearly bad at fantasy tho.
