Seattle already has a starter at RT so I'm guessing that's why they aren't in a rush to re-sign him especially at starter type money that he's looking for.

If we sign him, we better not think about paying him starter money. He hasnt done enough to prove hes worth more than a 3 year deal with more than 3-4M garaunteed.

That kind of leaves blades as the odd-man out. I dont like him as anything other than a backup MLB or special teams player at this point. I dont remember too much about Sinclair. hes certainly got more size.
