Seahawks Signings
 
Five-year deal I think. Link should be up soon (if it's not already)

Could be the end of the road for Shaun Alexander now with Morriss and Duckett there.

Yes SS, this would appear to spell the end for Shaun Alexander......and it is a five year deal for T.J.

There goes his massive contract.. I wonder if he still want big money once he goes into market?

That blows! I really wanted us to sign Duckett.

The last three years have been strange for Duckett to say the least. Maybe he has found a home with a team that obviously feels he has some value. Who would have thought TJ Duckett would be challenging Alexander in Seattle?

Great they now have a pair of big and soft running backs who are afraid to run between the tackles.

Well if you look at TJ's number they are very good it seems that he just does not get the opertunities.

Duckett has never produced as much as his draft position coming out of college would warrant. Even in his year with the Skins, he gave us very little, although I was befuddled that Gibbs didn't utilize him more in short yardage. For me, the name TJ Duckett evokes bitter memories of the two wasted draft picks that Gibbs gave up to get him.

I just read on NFL.com they signed Julius Jones. I thinks its safe to say Shaun Alexander is done.

Yea I was just going to post that as well...Shaun has got to be gone, otherwise they are paying so much money on running backs. i cant imagine they wanted depth behind him.

Shaun cant be cheap to cut though? he just signed a mega deal, what two years ago? cap guys know the answer?

From: [url=http://www.fieldgulls.com/story/2008/3/5/131549/2580]Field Gulls :: The stupidest name in smart Seahawks analysis[/url]

"Shaun signed an 8 year contract in 2006. Within it, Seattle offered Shaun an 11.5 million dollar signing bonus. Now, for the purposes of the cap, that money is spread evenly over all 8 years, 1.4375 million a year. Seattle has paid out 2 years worth of that bonus: 2.875 million, and has 6 more years to pay. If Alexander is cut, that entire remaining bonus is accelerated to the cap year of the cut: 8.625 million."

I don't have much info about Alexander's contract, but based on what this guy says Alexander's release fee is $8.625M.
