Report: teams believe Seahawks want 3 1st-rounders in a deal for Wilson to start [Speculation]. Would you do it? (2 Viewers)

[Saint Spud]

Will they settle for two 1sts and Swimmer?

 

[Devildog]

No. That would set us back years. I'd rather see what JW can do.

 

[Infoman]

There is not a draft pick... or three.... or four.... that’s not worth Rus Wilson. He’s an instant MVP in our offense, and makes us SB ready on day 1.

So even though it won’t happen... yeah! Why not? Lol

 

[No2DC]

I don't think they are going to trade him but if that's all they want someone will do it. I would rather see how the TH/JW plays out than trade 3 #1s.

Yes, Wilson's contract is flat out cheap. Even after the salary cap purge this year the Saints still should have enough talent in their prime to compete for a Superbowl. The Saints hit on their 2017 first rounders but their last two haven't been that impressive so far.

I would do it in a heartbeat and not look back. This gives us another 10+ years of MVP-level QB play. Look at what Stafford brought in and he's not nearly as good as Wilson.

Without a second thought.

If he gets traded, the team picking him up would only be on the hook for $19M this coming year, $24M in 2022, and $27M in 2023 with the included $5M roster bonuses in 2022 and 2023 (so base salaries of $19M and $22M in those years).

Also for those still on the fence, Wilson has been in the league for 9 years, never had a losing season, and 10+ wins in 8 of those years.

One first rounder more than Davenport for Russell Wilson with at least 5 more solid years in the tank? Two entusiastic thumbs up from me.

 

[MV2]

Absolutely. You have to make that deal. When you have the opportunity to get a franchise QB I couldn't place unproven kids above that. 1st round picks don't always pan out. And if you are a good team with Watson those picks should almost be like 2nd rounders.

 

[sleepingbunch]

He's a proven winner and future hall of famer. I wouldn't hesitiate.

 

[Twyst]

Saints would become super bowl favorites similar to tampa last year. It would absolutely be worth 3 firsts for a franchise qb who if he continues to play this well will have a HoF worthy career

 

[cwesleyc]

3 firsts? In a heartbeat.

Do it Loomis!

Does a crackhead want another hit?
