Sgt. Ryan Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 HUTCHINSON SIGNS "MONSTER" OFFER SHEET IN MINNY A league source tells us that the Minnesota Vikings have signed Seahawks guard Steve Hutchinson to a "monster" offer sheet. The Seahawks placed the transition tag on Hutchinson, giving them the right to match any offers made by another team. They'll have seven days to decide. If they choose not to match, they receive no compensation. Our guess is that the Vikings crafted an offer aimed at dissuading the Seahawks from matching, perhaps with a huge 2006 roster bonus due a day or two after the deal is signed. If Hutchinson lands in Minnesota, he'll land between perennial Pro Bowler Matt Birk and budding Pro Bowler Bryant McKinnie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 So the new Viking leadership is playing hardball? Interesting that Seattle didn't use the franchise tag. I hope they take all week to decide whether to keep him or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Cheezhead Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Didn't I tell y'all the transition tag is useless with star players? Seattle could have gotten him cheaper than what he'll sign for, guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Seahawks | Team has no comment on Hutchinson's offer sheet Sun, 12 Mar 2006 16:17:08 -0800 The Associated Press reports the Seattle Seahawks refused to comment Sunday, March 12, about the offer sheet signed by transition free agent OG Steve Hutchinson with the Minnesota Vikings, preferring to let their seven-day window to match the offer play out. Seattle entered the weekend about $17 million below the league's $102 million salary cap for 2006. With such a large offer on the table, however, the Vikings have made it as difficult as can be for the Seahawks, who have already put a lot of money into their offense.

Avernus Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 (edited) Seattle took a step back today,if they were going to pick him or SA they should of chose him. 1365641[/snapback] I still don't think they would have overpaid for him like that.. I'd have to say that SA's value slides definately behind LT2 and LJ now...and maybe even further... he's notorious for cutting back left....now he'll be cutting back into a DT...

Depending on who the Broncos,Colts end up starting. and if Birk is back next year for Minne. Alexander could fall behind a number of people. That being said, LJ lost Shields I believe which will also hurt him. I still would take him over Alexander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
