Seattle Seahawks: We talk about Russell Wilson exploring his options
Clint Prasky
There is only way Russ leaves this offseason, that’s if he forces it. I’ve seen the lip service this week, but really what is he supposed to say? Is he just supposed to say yes, I want out of here, and I can’t wait until this game is over?
The New York Giants have the most assets to send back to Seattle. Indianapolis, however, is the best fit. They have a roster that is ready to win now.
I’m more worried about why our DC (Ken Norton Jr.) still has a job.

The Seattle Seahawks’ best deal would be from Denver if they offered #9, #40, and a first-round pick next year. They are the best fit for him. Denver has a good bunch of wide receivers. Don’t rule out the possibility of the Seahawks asking for one in return, considering Dee Eskridge didn’t show anything, and Tyler Lockett could leave if Russ does too.
I’m going to change my answer on the best fit. I have no idea how Indy could actually land RW3, but he’d have all the ingredients he needs to succeed (best running back and O-Line in the league, a big reliable wide receiver, and a tough defense), and Russ can win his first MVP.
Wilson’s replacement would be a free agent, or if they get an extra receiver like I said, maybe they’re able to ship one or two to New Orleans for Taysom Hill.
Yes, he does get traded. Too many instances of him saying he wants out without saying he wants out, so he can still look good publicly. I also wouldn’t rule out an Aaron Rodgers-type situation with Russ in Seattle, as well.
I believe if they made the proposed Denver deal, Schneider would use the picks to sure up the cornerback, defensive line, and offensive line positions shoot for a new legion of boom. The Seahawks get everything in place before grabbing the QB to take it over the top.
