Bobby Wagner seeking $10 million per year deal from Seahawks

[RelaxImaPro]

 

 

Wagner is widely considered the 2nd best ILB after Luke, so if you were wondering what the absolute floor for Luke's deal was... there it is.  We all know he's getting more than $10 million though, and anything in the $10-12 million range would be a bargain for us IMO.

please god let gettlemagic pay luke less than 10 a year and then let wagner scalp the seahawks for more than that

[Lilsmitty09]

lmao how would he do without that secondary? smh

[Moorgan]

Similar to Cam, I'm happy with whatever they pay Luke. I know that whatever deal they come up with will be reasonable for a future HoF LB. Norman on the other hand. I'm not so sure how that one plays out.

Luke should be the best paid MLB in the game. There really is no question about that and everyone knows it.

super smart

High character

​He'd do fine, if you ask me.  Wagner is a beast.  He's very football smart, and has great instincts.  I can't sell him short just because he plays for Seattle.  He's easily 2nd best, behind Luke.

No non-passrushing LB has received a contract in excess of $10 million dollars a year since Willis did about 5 years ago.  3-4 outside LB's, edge rushers or whatever you want to call them, have received contracts in excess of $10 million but no LB who is not an edge rusher has received that size of a contract since then.  Having said that Wagner might get just over $10 million, idk, and that will be the floor for Luke.  If somehow Luke gets to $12 million a year average of the life of his contract, he will probably be the highest paid MLB for the next 10 years or so.  LB who don't rush the QB don't get paid, that's just how it works.

​I'd rather just give him what he deserves than make him feel like he's underpaid.
