Geno Smith To Sign With Seahawks

News came out Monday that Geno
Smith on a three-year deal that could 
give him $105 million. I saw it first
on Seattle  Times website. 

Another thing he could get $52 million
his first year if he meets incentives.
Nothing is sure how much is quaranteed.
How much toward the salary cap. You
have to figure though he does get the
$105 million that means $35  million 
per year. Most likely his cap amount
will be lower the first year and go up
from there. 

Say Geno gets the $52 million the first
year it will likely  be  spread over the
three years. Being no expert on the
salary  cap this only makes sense.
Whatever the case a lot of money
for a quarterback or alone any player
having one good  season. 

The Seahawks  have made mistakes on
other players like safety  Jamal Adams..
Right now it is hard to know whether they
bring Jamal back or  not after his injury.
Signing Geno they will have to make some 
cuts since they will tight against the cap.

Though he is labeled as a safety Jamal 
could lineup elsewhere as he has done
before.  As we know the linebacker spot
is short so we could see him lineup there.
The Seahawks  will probably  draft an edge
rusher, however at times Jamal could lineup 
there too. A lot might depend  on  how much 
speed he has lost. 

A reason to cut bait with Jamal besides salary 
is what kind of shape he is right now. Did he
get through rehab fine or not. We will find out.
There is a chance the Seahawks may draft a
quarterback  as well.  What round who knows
this will depend whether a franchise one is 
available  at any of the spots. We have to figure 
one will be  at number 5 in the first round but
better then any defensive  player the Seahawks 
could use. Stay tuned! Go Hawks!
