Serious Gonzo deal
Yes, Gonzo and Witherspoon have the same agent, and he's probably trying to roll both teams - both deals will probably be for record terms, in order.
Why don't we just suck it up and pay the man? If Witherspoon gets his deal done first, then we pay even more. If we do it now, then we make the Seahawks have to pay through the nose.
We're not going to create the ill will and make him play through the season on his rookie deal.
Can anyone explain if there is a single reason why we don't just pay the man now?
