Over The Cap-Russell Wilson's Next Contract

[Fritz]

I am curious if a new Wilson deal will hamstring the team in the way Matt Staff's contract has hamstrung the Lions (when seen in conjunction with their other dumb cap moves).

You can have an expensive quarterback but only if you manage the rest of the team's cap well.

They've added a good number of larger contracts on the past year. Trading for Jimmy Graham and extending Lynch and Richard Sherman.

Plus they have to worry about Okung, Irvin, and Wagner. Doesn't seem like they'll have much room for Wilson.
