Greg Olsen really liked Buffalo and Washington, and strongly considered both. But the lure of playing with Russell Wilson in Seattle was just too strong. Olsen takes a 1-year, $7 million deal with the Seahawks.

I can’t blame a receiver for wanting to play with the best, most established QB, but I wonder if some aspect of the contract was also a “thing”?

We did hear Olsen was gonna announce on Friday, then “negotiating with all 3 teams”

 

Sometimes that can mean “I’m waiting to see if you’ll match my best offer”.

 

Course “you’re my first choice QB and I really want to play with you, Russ” sounds better.

This tells me we don’t have a good enough QB to attract FA’s... ?

This is a huge loss in my opinion.  We needed Olsen to take the next step in 2020.  We haven't had that X Factor since Percy Harvin retired or went to jail or whatever happened to him and Olsen would've fit that role perfectly for the 4 games a year hes healthy.

Breaking News: Josh Allen isn’t as good as Russell Wilson.

Percy Harvin got a migraine and then retired.

This signing and their W-L record the past 10 years tell me Seattle is better than Buffalo and Olsen's chances of winning a championship improve by playing on a better team.
