Matt Flynn To Win.............Could he Net us Very Little ???

[LegandofthePack15]

Seeing how Flynn was beat out by Wilson I think Flynn was over-valued by us and Seattle. He's one of the highest paid backups for sure.

Seattle might be able to score a 3rd or 4th rounder for Flynn by trading him next off-season.

Teams are more likely to take their chances in the draft, no? They already know Flynn couldn't beat out a #75 draft pick....

I am having trouble with this topic because its looks like Pete Carroll made a wise decision and not an emotional one. I am hoping its a short term aberration before I must reassess my prejudice.

Fear not, you can rest assured Pete had no idea that he was making a good move. In fact, I have posited that Pete was actually doing everything he could to sabotage himself; he wants back into college ball. I'm certain he is stunned that all these moves he's made to achieve that goal have backfired.

Does make you wonder how much of a reputation hit he will take.

His contract is quite tradeable on both sides.
Signing bonus just $6 million, so not a huge cap hit to Seattle if they trade or release him.
$2 million guaranteed for 2013, more on incentives. Nothing guaranteed after 2013.

The story of Pete Carroll's coaching life: he shits all over, and comes out smelling like a rose.

The Seahawks won their division at 7-9 a couple years ago didn't they?

He'd look like Montana in Arizona if they could bolster their O line somehow.
