Robert Quinn, Eddie Goldman and even Foles could be candidates for restructurings to create space. This will allow Pace to create cap space as needed in the days and weeks ahead. of Foles’ contract is a good example, as it reads: “Player and Club agree that on one or more occasions and at any time during the duration of this Contract, Club shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert any portion of Player’s Paragraph 5 Salary set forth in this Contract into Signing Bonus, or convert any portion or all of the Roster Bonus(es), if any, set forth in this Contract into Signing Bonus.” The Bears, as a general rule, include clauses in their player contracts that allow them to rework the deals in order to create cap space without requiring advance permission. Also, Carroll is known to put a greater premium on paying cornerbacks over pass rushers, and the success the team had with the Legion of Boom secondary, reaching two Super Bowls, is proof. The Seahawks finished seventh in the league with 46 sacks last season without Mack. If they were to trade Wilson, they would want draft picks and elite, young and cheap talent. The Seahawks wouldn’t have wanted Mack in a trade package anyway. Currently, the Seahawks would take a massive $39 million cap hit this season if they trade Wilson, and that number would only climb if his deal is tweaked. Similarly, as Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News-Tribune reported Friday, the Seahawks have the right to renegotiate Wilson’s contract without his prior consent to create cap space, and if they go that route in an effort to build around Wilson, that would instantly put an end to speculation Wilson could be moved. The Bears have reached agreements to re-sign kicker Cairo Santos and defensive end Mario Edwards Jr., so they’ve already put their plan in motion. So expect the Bears to continue restructuring deals and extending players’ contracts to have more room to operate, with the salary cap dipping to $182.5 million this season. More room is needed as Allen Robinson’s $18 million cap hit with the franchise tag counts versus the cap even though he has not signed the tender.

The team reworked the contracts of outside linebacker Khalil Mack, free safety Eddie Jackson and offensive lineman Cody Whitehair to create a little more than $23 million in space.

The Bears have been gearing up for free agency by creating salary-cap space. “If it doesn’t work with Darnold, then they draft one in the future.”
“Seattle is without all of the picks it gave up to get Jamal Adams, and by trading Russell, the Seahawks could get back that draft capital and then some from the Bears,” the GM said. If the Bears’ best shot at a Wilson trade hinges on the Seahawks’ belief in Darnold, that’s leaning heavily on a hope and a prayer.
Only former Arizona Cardinals draft bust Josh Rosen has been worse. It would be something entirely different for Carroll to stake the future of the Seahawks on the reconstruction of Darnold, who since the start of the 2018 season ranks 41st out of 42 quarterbacks with a minimum of 500 pass attempts with a 78.6 passer rating. The Seahawks could execute separate transactions with the Bears and Jets, and the GM said he believes the Jets would trade Darnold for a high second-round pick or the draft equivalent of that.īut it’s one thing to lavish praise - deserving or not - on an opposing quarterback the week of a game. It would not necessarily require a three-way trade.
