Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider faces a brutal decision this offseason at the quarterback position. He has about five weeks to decide whether or not to keep Geno Smith around for the final year of his contract. On March 16 Smith is due around $16 million in guarantees, a deadline that will spur a decision one way or another.

Stacy Rost details insight from NFL insiders Trevor Sikkema and Joel Corry into Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith's contract situation.

A wild trade proposal sends Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith to the New York Giants in exchange for a player and picks.

Smith's current contract — which expires after the 2025 season — has an average per-year value of $25 million, which ranks 19th in the NFL. His cap hit is $44.5 million next season, the largest of his three-year deal, which accounts for 15.8 percent of the Seahawks' total cap.

Now that Pete Carroll has Chip Kelly as Raiders OC, Brock Huard discusses if it makes a Seattle Seahawks trade of QB Geno Smith more likely.

"Smith doesn't inspire a boatload of enthusiasm from fans, and headed into the final year of his contract with a cap hit of $44.5 million, the offseason will likely feature at least some drama involving the 34-year-old."
