After Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson turned the question of what he deserves around on ESPN’s Marty Smith, asking Smith how much he would pay Wilson, we decided to put the question to you.
In the 20 hours or so since the poll question was posted, nearly 17,000 have responded. More than 35 percent peg Wilson’s value between $15 million and $20 million per year.
But here’s the kicker. Coming in second in the five-option range of annual salaries was “$15 million or less,” with 23 percent picking that option. That’s a whopping 58 percent who believe Wilson deserves less than $20 million per year.
