Seahawks offer Marshawn Lynch huge contract extension - NFL.com

I'd love to see him stay around. Could be a bit risky considering he has averaged 295 carries a season over the past 4 years, but this guy really is the heart of the Seahawks offense. You can see that by the body language of the players on the field, and even if you're just in a bar watching the game, people go nuts when he fights for an extra few yards after a run. He brings energy to this team and offense by his play on the field.

Nobody has commented. Cause the rest of the league just went "crap"! There goes their hope of the Seahawks losing key players.

Cap is going up this year so a deal can get done. He's not slowing down in the least and always shows up in perfect shape.

Go Hawks!!!

It's when they pay Wilson that you'll see cap issues. This deal doesn't have as much of an impact on their cap.

--The NFL salary cap for the 2014 season increased 8.1 percent to $133 million, and it is a foregone conclusion the cap will increase once again prior to the new league year on March 10.

The NFL informed team executives at last month’s owners meeting to expect next year’s salary cap to fall between $138.6 and $141.8 million, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. However, NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith thinks it will be higher than that, USA Today's Tom Pelissero reports (via Darin Gantt of Pro Football Talk).

A substantial increase, as projections have speculated, is far from breaking news, since Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio reported prior to this season the salary cap could hit $160 million by 2016, but the official number will not be locked in place until closer to the new league year.
