joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 This was the one edge rusher that I thought we should have really pursued in this year's free agency. {Save the "domestic violence incident", didn't know about that } He would have been the perfect fit. Young, healthy, talented and effective. No warts in his game For next year's #2 pick, sign me up. It's a no brainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Why does everybody think they want Lee? How about Williams? That is more of an even swap - two high priced dudes with no time on their contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had forgotten about that. Seattle wants to free up some $$$. I agree 100%, anything but our 1st should be the strategy. Might even consider flipping some round-by-round positions (ex. The Jets pick early in each round....we include our 4th for Seattle's 4th essentially letting them move up significantly in one or two rounds).

WayneChrebet80 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Clark has had a domestic violence incident in his past. The Jets have been adamant about avoiding those guys so it would shock me with if they paid him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 If you can trade down then you offer whatever second pick you get. You get your pass rusher and then can take an offensive player with the other first rounder you got. Big win if they can pull that off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_Smith Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Wilson currently makes 25mil and Seattle has about 10 mil in space. figure he wants to be in the 33-34 per year range, they’re going to have to trade clark jarren reed put up 10.5 sacks for them last year and makes peanuts. They’re already paying wagner and kj Wright about 20 mil combined in their linebacking corps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoni Beast Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Mac needs to be aggressive here if the asking price is less than a 1st. Get it done. We have the cap space to sign him to a deal that he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now is the time to do it with Darnold on his rookie deal. I’d be more than ok with paying big money to Mosley, bell, KO, and Clark while we can afford it. I think the Colts are going to snatch him since they have the most cap available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colts come to mind but they got Houston, they could still do it given they have 2 2nd rounders. Landing Clark would open up so many possibilities on draft night. Trading down would still be the best outcome but pairing Allen, Bosa, Quinnen or Oliver with Clark wouldn't be the worst thing either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 They don't have a second round pick. BUT... What if you They offer Frank Clark, their 1st (21), and their 3rd pick (84), for our number 3? They could then take that number three and replace Clark with Bosa or Allen, or they could trade down and recoup the 2nd and 3rd pick? That puts us in the mix for guys like Andre Dillard or Greg Little. Might put us in place for Greedy Williams. Better yet, I would bet Garrett Bradbury would be in play. How good would Frank Clark, Garrett Bradbury, and 3 3rd rounds pick look?Not bad but I think Seattle is in the market for more picks. If I remember correctly they have 4 total picks this year. Losing frank Clark and dropping to 3 total picks doesn’t seem realistic. I just don’t see it from a seahawk perspective.

I’m hoping that Macs seat is hot enough to the point where he needs to win and that’s his only focus. I think Clark’s been well improved since his rough days in college hopefully Mac makes it happen it makes too much sense if it can be had for a 2nd a late pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an unfortunate reality. We just don't have what they are looking for. Lee could be in the equation but I don't know how well he would fit in with them. Seatle did give us a 2nd and Kearse for a one year rental on Sheldon so something could be done. We have the relationship already. Unless they feel like they got taken for a ride on that deal.

If the Colts aren't interested Seattle better negotiate with Macc & the Jets because he'll run out of places that can 1- give up picks & 2- pay him. When Wilson gets paid, they will have NO MONEY to pay Clark so they have to make some type of deal. Problem is, the Colts are also waiting for the price to GO DOWN & they have numerous later draft picks. Of the Jets could pull that off & Bosa falls to them? DAMN!

I cant see any team giving up a first current or future when Dee Ford went for a future 2nd. Macc didn’t want to trade a future first to move up for Darnold. I doubt he does it for Clark. Since most teams are done spending, Seattle is almost in the same spot Arizona is with Rosen. Arizona wants a first, but sounds like they are only get Day 2 Pick offers. Seattle can’t pay Clark. So their best scenario is making a deal for one of the Colts second round picks. Colts hold most of the cards. If they don’t want to give up a second. Good luck to Seattle.

genot Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 One thing. If the Jets have an interest, all this 3-4 talk goes out the window. He's a Defensive end not an OLB. Way to small to play in a 3-4 on the line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
