Because it’s the offseason and the Seattle Seahawks are coming off a particularly rough year, folks continue to debate whether or not the team should shop quarterback Russell Wilson and see what he could possibly command on the open market.
One argument is . . . the Seahawks have a proven starting signal-caller and most NFL teams are in need of exactly that, so why not see what type of capital they could receive in exchange?
“Retaining Russ would certainly not be a bad outcome; an elite QB always gives you a chance,” writes Cody Benjamin of CBS Sports. “But this is about resetting while the opportunity is ripe. It’s about taking the whole picture into account. Even coming off a down year that included surgery, is Wilson’s value going to be higher?”
