If we have negotiated contract details with Earls agent, the trade compensation is already worked out with Seattle for them to approve KC talking to Earls agent...otherwise it’s tampering.
I’ll bet anything the hang up is that Earl wants the highest safety contract ever and after the situation with Berry, I doubt they are willing to go down that road again. Especially with the league sending the message that safeties aren’t worth that much.
Here’s the rub...
With Earls age, you can’t really give him much more than a 3 year deal and he might sit out that third year...so is he essentially worth highest safety contract ever and really for only 2 years?
I’d still pull the trigger, but that’s a significant amount of concern for a guy that will cost a first and a big contract...when this upcoming draft class has a few elite pass rushers we might be able to package a 1+2 to move up for.
