RENTON Parris Campbell Jersey , Wash. (AP) — there is going to be speculation about Frank Clark’s future at least until the first round of the NFL draft on Thursday since the defensive end would seem to be the most viable trade commodity that could land Seattle the draft picks it covets.“This time, and the trade deadline, there’s some speculation about a lot of players. We’re involved in a lot of deals. We take a lot of pride in that. We wouldn’t be doing our jobs if we weren’t listening to everybody,” Schneider said Monday.“I get it, people need to speculate this time of year. Watched something this morning where everybody figured it out for us. We take a lot of pride in having relationships through the league and understanding what’s going on as much as we possibly can.”Seattle resolved one long-term issue last week when it signed quarterback Russell Wilson to an extension that made him the highest-paid player in football and would keep him with the Seahawks through 2023. But the deal may also have priced Seattle out of keeping Clark, who is set to play the upcoming season on the franchise tag after the sides were unable to come to agreement on a long-term deal. Clark will make $17.1 million if he signs his franchise tag tender.Keeping Clark around also becomes more difficult because Seattle needs to try to sign defensive tackle Jarran Reed and All-Pro linebacker Bobby Wagner to extensions. “Feasible, very challenging,” Schneider said when asked about getting long-term deals done for all three.Seattle’s meager supply of picks is a big reason Clark’s future is such a big topic, however. The Seahawks have only four picks and have no selections in the second http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-bobby-okereke-jersey , sixth and seventh rounds. Most expect the Seahawks to try to trade out of the 21st overall pick to acquire picks in later rounds. A deal involving Clark could provide Schneider the freedom to make bigger moves and get more picks.Seattle is also on track to have a significant amount of picks in 2020 depending on compensatory picks. Some of the picks for next year could be part of deals this year to make up the deficit.“I think people recognize that we’re obviously open to moving back,” Schneider said. “This year is unique having four picks. Rookie free agency is going to be huge for us, because it’s not like you just pick up the phone and people are like, ‘OK, yeah, we’ll come up.’ It’s a process that starts several selections ahead of where you’re currently sitting. But our guys do a great job of calling everybody trying to get scenarios all set up — they’re trying to figure out where we can go and move back to. I think the fact that we have done it a lot, I would think invites people a little bit.”NOTES: Coach Pete Carroll said WR Doug Baldwin underwent surgery for a sports hernia earlier this month and has been at the team’s facility for rehab. “He’s working at it every day. He is here in the building and I didn’t see him today but he was here and he is working at it and making good progress. It’s a long haul,” Carroll said. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Absent linebacker Telvin Smith says the Jacksonville Jaguars fined him $88 Khari Willis Jersey ,650 for missing the team’s mandatory, three-day minicamp this week.Smith posted a picture of the fine letter on his Instagram story Saturday, adding “it’s still love!!” The letter shows the Jaguars fined him $14,775 for missing the first day, $29,550 for the second and $44,325 for the third. The letter says the fines are required by the 2011 Collective Bargaining Agreement.Defensive end Yannick Ngakoue, who wants a new contract, also skipped the camp and was expected to get fined equally.Smith announced last month that he’s stepping away from football to “get my world in order.”A Pro Bowl selection in 2017 and the team’s top tackler the past two seasons Josh Allen Jersey , Smith can avoid future fines by filing retirement paperwork with the NFL. The Jaguars would then be able to place him on the league’s reserve/retired list, which would pause his contract and free up a roster spot, as well as $9.75 million in salary cap space. It also would protect Smith from fines and NFL testing policies.Smith has three years remaining on his current deal, which averages $10 million annually in base salary.Jaguars coach Doug Marrone insists the team has moved on and plans to be without Smith in 2019, but his locker remained intact during the minicamp.
