Tyler Lockett is Seattle's best reciever. Last year, similar number of receptions. More yards, more efficient, more yards per game.
Seattle hasn't won more than one playoff game a season since losing to the Pats in the SB. That's winning only 3 playoff games in the last 8 years. That also coincides with Wilson taking up $30+MM of the cap. Before that second contract, Wilson (and the teams he was on) won 6 playoff games in his first 3 years. Those years there was a much more well rounded roster, with all that extra cap room that the QB, or any other star player, wasn't taking up.
Chris Carson just retiring is a hit too. A workhorse that Wilson needed when Lynch left.
And yeah, not a fan of Adams either and his overinflated salary.
PC and JS built the team up to what should've been back to back Superbowl wins, in 4 seasons, by committee, not by getting or keeping highly paid players eating large cap space. They have to get back to that and, sure, the element of luck to find a QB as they got lucky with Wilson so low in the draft.
