What would you give up for Wilson?

What's the best offer you'd send to the Seahawks.

I like Dak a lot, but Wilson is a natural born winner. I'd give up the house for him. He can carry this team with a solid oline, Zeke, Cooper, Gallup and Lamb.

2020
1st round
3rd round

2021
1st round
3rd round

2022
2nd round
Not a chance I’d give that much
Gut two years of draft means you still have a crappy defense and you can’t win a SB without a good defense

Nothing. He won a super bowl on his rookie deal b/c Seattle was able to load up on defense. Since signing his big contract, Seattle has done nothing but gut the defense to accomodate his huge cap number. Seattle has now realized they can't win with him so why would we? Seattle is run by much smarter people than Dallas.
You mean the people who signed him to the contract he has lol

Be nice if we could get something for Dak to help offset the cost.

I'll take a one year window like the Bucs did with Brady.
That window doesn't exist with this defense. Brady would have been one and done in the playoffs, if he was in Dallas last year.

So Russell Wilson and this defense is still one and done.

CBS Sports had a crazy three team trade with the Raiders involved where we give up Dak, a 2022 first round and then like a 4th round pick.
Now that I might do
Wilson is signed cheap for 3 years and you aren’t gutting multiple years of picks
I haven’t seen the breakdown
I assume raiders would be getting Dak ?

Not happening with Wilson, we have a better chance at Watson with a more reasonable offer.

Who cuts a Qb who just won a super bowl? So, they rolled the dice that Wilson could win with less and lost. The smart team learns from the error and moves on.

We have a better defense than Seattle? If Wilson can't win there, he's not going to win here either.

What has Wilson won without an elite defense?

Wilson makes 32m, 37m and 40m over the next 3 years. Thats not cheap.

Swap Dak for Wilson and you win the same number of games.
Keep the draft picks and fix the defense or Wilson and Ciara will be griping at Jerry about losing and not controlling things like he does in Seattle.

The guy seems to have turned in to one of those types that likes to drink his own bath water and smell his own farts.

Dak, #10 pick this year and a conditional 3rd that could be a 2nd in next years draft.

Several NFC West divisions.

And that is with no elite defense, bad oline, average RB, and average WRs for the most part although Metcalfe is emerging.

That's not true. Those are his cap hits for Seattle who has paid him signing and roster bonuses. If they trade him, they have to take advance those bonus cap hits onto their existing 2021 cap. Wilson on another team has lower cap hits and is quite affordable (relative to other QBs).

I believe I read his cap hits for any team trading for him would be: $19 million in 2021, $24 million in 2022 and $27 million in 2023. That's his base in 2021 of $19 million, then the same base in 2022 + a 5 million roster bonus and then a $22 million base in 2023 + $5 million roster bonus. There are some base escalators in there as well but not a huge amount.

Any team trading for Wilson is getting a great deal in terms of contract for the next three seasons.
