Whether you're a believer in Geno Smith's talent or not, you've no doubt got your eye on this Friday, as the Seattle Seahawks and general manager John Schneider have a big decision on their hands. 
Smith's $12.7 million base salary for 2024 becomes fully guaranteed if he's still on the roster Friday, February 16th. But this isn't simply a question of whether to cut or keep Geno..... there are options!
Today, I outline 4 of them, and give you my thoughts on which one I think is most likely.

Welcome Seahawks fans! Seahawks Forever is where I get to take all my passion, knowledge and insight into the Seattle Seahawks and roll it into one. I've been covering the team in one form or another since 1991, as a television journalist, web writer and podcaster. What you'll find here is my analysis and opinions on what the team is doing, or SHOULD be doing, on the field and off. From the draft and free agency, to everything that happens once the pads go on..... join me and my roster of fellow journalists and analysts for what I feel is the best Seahawks content around. Go Hawks!!

Football

If you've ever seen any of Brett Kollmann's content (and if you haven't, you SHOULD) you'll know what an "elite ball-knower" he is. Whether he's breaking down all-22 tape or looking at broader issues, Brett has his finger on the pulse of the entire league. 
In this episode, I get to pick Brett's brain a little bit and get his thoughts on how the Seahawks did in the just-concluded draft, as well as their division opponents. 
But that's NOT all! Other topics include....

 The selection of Michael Penix Jr at #8 to Atlanta
 Where do the QB's of the NFC West rank in regards to the league's best? 
  What does the selection of one particular Seahawk draft pick tell us about the style of offense Seattle intends to play? 
  A sleeper day 3 Seattle pick he particularly likes
  And hear him gush about Seahawk legend Walter Jones....

LIVE REACTION: Seahawks STEAL Christian Haynes in the 3rd round!

What if I told you the Seattle Seahawks had a chance to select the best defensive tackle in the entire draft at pick 16? Would you have stayed there and picked, or still wanted to trade down to accumulate more selections? 
Well, John Schneider chose to do the former, adding Murphy to Mike Macdonald's defensive front. 
What does the 21 year old have to offer? And what might the rest of the draft look like for the Hawks? 
Listen in to find out - including a fresh mock draft simulating what the next two days may end up looking like when all is said and done at the draft in Detroit.
