I spoke with Leonard Weaver's agent, who said that three teams called him today to say they had a sincere interest in Weaver. However, Weaver's agent also said that the second-round pick a team would have to give Seattle as compensation is scaring folks off. That being said, he said it is more likely than not that Weaver returns to the Seahawks. Whether that is with a long-term deal or with playing under the $1.47 million tender offer remains to be seen. He said Weaver is not the type of guy who thinks the grass is greener, so his hope is to sign a long-term deal.
Also, on the last thread somebody posted a comment that's contact with Philly is going to be six years for $47.2 million. It is actually six years years for $57 million, John Clayton and Adam Schefter are reporting, so that puts his average salary right around what Marcus Trufant is being paid with the franchise tag.
Also, Alge Crumpler made $2.925 last year and was scheduled to make $3.4 million this year, so I would think that is the type of money they are looking for from whomever signs him. Tim Ruskell has to ask himself -- or probably already has -- is it worth it to give Crumpler that type of money if he feels he can get a long-term solution in the draft.
