Seahawks: 3 Green Bay Packers that Seattle should steal in free agency
By Lee Vowell
Davante Adams
This might be a pipe dream and we all know that John Schneider would never spend so much to bring a player of Adams price tag to Seattle but still, I can dream. Adams has to be getting frustrated by not being franchise-tagged or offered a huge sum of money to stay in Green Bay and could easily go elsewhere.
Imagine a world if you will, 12s, where Tyler Lockett, D.K. Metcalf and Davante Adams are all options on a Russell Wilson dropback. No, there aren’t enough balls to go around for these three receivers. But there also aren’t any secondaries in the NFL who could cover this trio.
Adams is going to get a large amount to play somewhere. Maybe Schneider and Pete Carroll think, “We aren’t going to be here in three years so let’s just go for it.” (They won’t, I know, but again this is a pipe dream.) So Schneider and Carroll sign Adams to a $15 million deal for two years and say to opponents, “Try to stop us.” Then Rashaad Penny is re-signed and rushes for 2,000 yards because every team is focused on the pass.
Again, this is a pipe dream. But there is a very possibility Adams is a free agent for any team to sign and maybe the Seahawks should do just that. Because being a fan of a team involves dreaming that team will win the Super Bowl and Seattle signing Adams makes them one step closer to doing that.
