Future LT?

[stirs]

Seattle blowing up their cap space, so just thinking ahead

I'd be perfectly fine with this transaction.

Do want

Fill a huge gap and cripple an opponent at the same time.  I think his straight forward style as far as negotiating would work well with Gman

[UpstatePanther]

Let this happen. 

would also be happy if a legit LT prospect fell to us at 32nd overall next year in the draft. ;)

I see what you did there. Like it!

[uncfan888]

I'd be good with this

[Cary Kollins]

I don't see Seattle getting rid of their starting LT without a viable replacement.

Be ready to shell out around $10 million a year for a LT of his caliber. Not sure Gettleman would go for that. Someone will more than likely severely overpay for him in free agency. 

[stirs]

Seattle will not be able to keep him.

Make it happen David

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Sure, it'd be nice, but I'll believe it when I see it.

...actually, I probably won't believe it then either.

[LinvilleGorge]

I'd love it, but probably won't happen.  Elite QBs and elite LTs almost never hit the open market.

It was even suggested on their main site.  Read "Carolina (please don't)". Ha!  They know we're coming for their @$$.  seahawks.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=111641
