Wilson has virtually no impact on their salary cap, they can keep an overpaid backup. If teams want Flynn, it's gonna cost them.

Which is precisely why he isn't going anywhere until Wilson's rookie deal is up or unless someone drastically overpays.

You just outlined *why* they'll drop Flynn. The have a quarterback, and he's eating up 7 million in cap room that can cover the cost of a new backup and be used to improve/solidify the remainder of the roster.

Seattle can position itself to make a real splash this offseason, between cap carryover, and the space they can generate by dropping Flynn. At the very least, they can rework contracts for their core players.
