What type of contract would you like the Seahawks to give Earl Thomas?

Hopefully that isn’t too much of a shock. Thomas is currently heading into the final year of his four-year, $40 million dollar second contract that he signed in 2014. Some would say he is under contract and should play, but holding out during OTAs/training camp is an accepted leverage point for players under the current CBA. If he were to play out this contract, his cap hit would be $10.5 million this year, which isn’t even in the top five for safeties right now. That is a complete bargain for the best free safety in the league.
