‘The Seahawks might try to argue that such guarantees are no longer allowed under a 1994 CBA revision sparked by Wolford’s move from Buffalo to Indianapolis. Wolford, the Bills’ transition player, signed a three-year, $7.65 million offer sheet with the Colts. The deal included a clause that Wolford must be the team’s highest-paid offensive player. He qualified for that distinction in Indianapolis, but in Buffalo, quarterback Jim Kelly was earning more. In order to match, Buffalo would have had to raise the overall value of Wolford’s offer sheet. The Bills lost the case in arbitration and did not match Wolford’s contract. Afterward, the NFL and the union agreed that offer sheets for transition players no longer could require the matching team to raise the overall value.’
