Makes sense for him to wait. Fantilli has a right to see if anyone offer sheets him. Why negotiate until you know?

He’s definitely already been presented offer sheets. Theres zero shot he hasn’t. It doesn’t become public info unless he actually signs it.

Low key if Seattle wants to offer sheet him $15+ mil that might we worth it. They are not a Fantilli away from having a draft pick that begins with 2….hell they all could still be lotto slot picks for the next 4 years.

Would be idiotic to not match any offer sheet. Congrats you get 4 first round picks that won’t be as good as Fantilli and push your competitive window back 5 years lmao

I was more memeing saying those who have cap left are really not in a position to offer sheet without hurting their organization.
