Richard Sherman gets a new contract...4 yrs 57m...40m guaranteed

I guess Earl Thomas just got a new contract too?

Making it rain in Seattle.........more so than it already does, I guess.

Not the worst deal in the world. It's only a 4 year deal and sherman is only JUST entering his years as a prime CB. The only downside is that he might get fat and happy and lose motivation with all those guaranteed $$$

I don't see Sherman as the type to slack off after getting payed. He seems to have to much pride.

Things will get interesting in Seattle when they make the decision on Wilson. Pay him big bucks and the downfall will begin. If they pass on that contract and draft another bus driver and use that money for linemen, we will see a smart organization in the works.

I agree but all that money into the secondary will make it hard to invest anything towards the OL/DL. Who know though, I seem to think these contract will catch up to these teams and they rarely do with the right management in the works. The cap is rising @ a good rate as well. Maybe SEA is just getting a jump on tying up their home talent before the crazy 2015 FA season that will be coming next year. I really wanted a shot @ Thomas

Seattle knows what they are doing, I have lived here for years and they have been building this team for a while and are keeping the players they want as a core. Trust me they are not going to give up the players that they want. The only thing that will kill them is their back up QB's if Wilson gets hurt. If they keep going they could become the Cowboy's of the 90's. And Sherman is a great guy in the community, the things he does far exceeds any talk in the heat of the moment in a game FYI
