I'm not sure about the rest but I'm not expecting anything from CM this year other then if Lynch is suspended. I'd like to think he starts then and if he lights it up Seattle has no issue cutting Lynch and his expensive contract next year..

That said, the games Lynch isn't suspended its all him.. Who knows, Lynch has back issues also

Ah, that makes sense. Man I just see Lynch as A Seattle hero. I can't see them ever cutting him but things like that do occur.

What do u think Michael can be purchased for right now? I have been inquiring and literally nobody has an interest in moving him. He's in a strange fantasy spot now.

Does seattle have any big fa to sign this year? i think next year is the year they have to redo wilson deal...

Just to clarify the cap saving would be 5.5 in '14 or 7.5 in '15.  I'm leaning that Marshawn will not be cut or traded this off-season, although it is def a possibility (say 80/20 stays).  The 'Hawks will get some cap relief from Sidney Rice (8.5m) and possibly Zach Miller (6m), but they'll need to (re)acquire a LT and the WR corps (less Harvin) on offense alone and they plan on extending Sherman this offseason.  If they cut Rice & Miller it would leave them with 16.5m to fill the holes and sign draft picks.  If they cut Lynch it would be 22m which is about 25% of their total free money.  It has to be enticing for SEA to free up that money.

Michael Bennett, Brent Giacomini, and Golden Tate, assuming they want to keep those guys.

Browner and Baldwin are restricted FAs as well.

I think people may be jumping on a Lynch suspension a little premature. There are plenty or reports out that say Lynch may not receive any suspension at all for this. I'd let the full process play out before we accept that Lynch will be missing time. I will go on record right now and say that Lynch will NOT be suspended.

I actually agree.. Maybe 2 games but prolly nothing.. I was hoping for something

Normally I would be too because I don't like him. Unfortunately, I own him in 1 league and need his value to rebound some to I can move him.

Lynch sees a 2-4, I agree. I do wonder what Rice will face. I have a feeling we won't learn the entire story any time soon, which is a shame, because if there is more to his story, the NFL will continue to take heat on this publicly. As @LukeB5301 said, I'm getting tired of hearing he was dragging her all around when that footage shows him just doing a horrible job carrying her. I just don't know too many guys that hit a woman then try and bring her home. I just don't buy all this for some reason.. Sorry, I know this is a Lynch thread.

I can't see why most in DC seem to be sleeping on Turbin.

Yawn... Go look at his stats last year and tell me what sticks out that says this is the guy!! All I see is a bunch of crappy games and a weak ypc..

If Turbine is so good and the guy, why did they draft CM in 2nd last year... That's a high pick for a backup

Personally I felt as though Seattle had the luxury to take whatever they wanted at that pick.   They didn't need a RB but they took one they liked....    Guess we'll see...    Recall that Turbin's YPC was just fine in 2012 and he looked to be a pretty good receiver out of the backfield as well.....   Yet, Seattle drafted Michael.....

Watched Pete Carrolls presser today... Like what u hear.


Carroll said Christine Michael has the most breakout potential of any player on the Seahawks.

Say Seattle wins another championship next year.....they have to make Wilson the highest paid qb in the NFL....even without another win they have to give him top 3 money imo.  i just don't see how he settles for less than Flacco.

I actually don't think Wilson will demand that much if it will kill his team. I think he wants to win more than anything
