Disagree. When have you ever heard a FA make a comment like that besides possibly a WR? That was a calculated statement IMO.
He is obviously leaving here, so this team is likely not even on his radar at the moment, so Wilson isn't even a part of the equation.
It's only a calculated statement if you want to believe it is.
Lots of players seek out teams with great qbs because those teams make the playoffs way more often. Free agents want the most money on the best teams. Sherman has already been paid, and his next check will likely be on a prove it type deal coming off the injury, so money is less a factor for him. That really only leaves the team choice. Free agents either want a specific region or a team that consistently is a contender. By asking for a team with a great qb, sherman is setting his bar for which teams he'll even talk to. Still has nothing to do with RW as we are the team he is leaving, not a team he is going to.
I'm not sure why I'm wasting my time explaining it though. It's quite obvious that fans will believe what they want to believe, truth be damned.
