Whats the plan? Cut Lockett? Cut Adams?
massari":2bsyw69o said:Trading Wagner, Adams, and Reed would open up about $32M in cap space.
Jordyn Brooks replaces Wagner
Marquise Blair replaces Adams
They can create about $45M in cap room if they're able to agree on some extensions.
Projected Cap Gains from extensions:
Carlos Dunlap $10,020,000
Tyler Lockett $8,968,000
Duane Brown $7,420,000
Jamal Adams $7,096,000
Quandre Diggs $3,568,000
Brandon Shell $1,668,000
Jarran Reed $6,068,000
Tre Flowers $1,010,400

Bravo sir! How much a player will be worth to a team is the primary factor when looking at the possible signings.FresnoHawk68":1qjpi287 said:...The Salary Cap is not an issue for the Seahawks, pundits are making it an issue so they can write stories about it! The issues for Seattle are performance & talent related! Is Lockett worth a 3rd contract? If he is sign him, if not trade him or cut him. Same goes for Brown, Diggs, Reed, etc...
Because spending $15m-$20m a year on a safety who isn't elite in coverage is a huge mistake, at least for a team with as many holes as this one. It's not a good use of resources, in my opinion, and this off-season is the last chance to move him for value otherwise you either 1) pay him a huge sum of money to make him the highest paid safety in the league, which he'll surely demand or 2) let him walk when you can't come to terms and you settle for a comp pick.JayhawkMike":12ka8sdu said:Every time I see Adams mentioned to be released or traded I just shake my head. Why would anybody want to do that?

Apart from that, significant space can be created with extensions and the ol' signing bonus trick.

8 million freed up if you cut Reed, unfortunately i don't think your finding his replacement for that. I actually thought Reed played well last year. I'd let him try to ball out in a contract year for 8 million.
