No other details. I'm sure you'll have them by the time most of you wake up! Lets get DJ signed, too.

Good!

BTW this link is to the KJ piece, the one you linked is to the rumor mill main page, KJ's is already almost off the front page ...

Good news, indeed! If Kendricks receives a light sentence that allows him to play, we'll be set at the LB position.

Best LB tandem in the NFL stays intact. Fantastic news.

Good news. I hope he can stay healthy this year.
It was a necessary move with Kendricks upcoming sentencing and what looks like a shortage of good LBs
in this years draft.

Another bit of good news. I hope he can get his knee better. Knee injuries are so tough on athletes.

Yea, I'm getting a kick out of all the fans on social media wringing their hands because some teams, nearly all non playoff teams, making big splashes in free agency (along with the OBJ trade). I'm pretty satisfied so far, and I'm usually your typical Debbie Downer.

JS rarely makes a splash in FA because he likes his comp picks.
This season, with a limited Cap space, he doesn’t have the room
to make any big deals when you add in upcoming contracts for
Russ, Wags, and Reed.

Not seeing anything about KJ in that link from post #1. I read something the other day that indicated the Hawks may have signed Kendrick 'cause they are planning to let Wright go.

Some of the contract details are in the Seahawks News thread.

K.J. Wright, LB (Seahawks): Two years, up to $15MM (original story). $8MM in 2019, including $5MM signing bonus, $1.5MM base salary, $1.5MM roster bonus. Second year isn’t guaranteed.

This is a good signing. 2 years doesn't lock us in too long with a player who may be getting a bit long in the tooth.
