[QUOTE="NOMOFO, post: 577937, member: 9687"] Yes, I read it. This is from the article you posted: "The decision to trade for and pay Harvin likely hindered Seattle’s ability to re-sign Golden Tate, the team’s leading receiver in 2013." People are down playing the losses Seattle already has had in players without even beginning to talk about the next two years. The article suggests they're in great shape because they have 40 players under contract. I had earlier posted the facts behind the amount of free agents Seattle has coming due. It's very misleading to suggest they have 43 mil in cap space AND 40 players under contract so all is "just fine". They have 43 million in cap space and have 47 players coming due in the next 2 years. THAT tells us a lot more about the realities of their situation. Please check out this site. This lists all of the players coming due in 2015 and 2016 for each team. Take a look at the Packers and Seattle and take a look at the actual players coming due. Heads up...you will need to scroll when looking at Seattle's and it's a list of whose who on their team. [url]http://www.spotrac.com/free-agents/nfl/seattle-seahawks/[/url] Go a step further and to give you perspective, take a look at other teams with similar cap numbers. I just did that. I think a person could easily argue Seattle has the biggest challenge in the league over the next 2 years to try to keep this roster like it looks now. Like I've been saying all along here, they basically have to sign their entire roster including their superstars. [/QUOTE]
