May have to add Marshawn Lynch's name to the list of early retirements.

Can never tell with him, though I think he and Seattle will part ways.

Given all his charity work in his hometown, hard to see that he wouldn't play at least a season in Oakland, and they would pay him very well.

I think he still has a one or two years left in the tank; he carried Seattle's offense the last 3 seasons prior to this and pound for pound the top runner in the league for that period (longer, probably), and although running backs have a short shelf life and drop off quickly (see Alexander, Shawn) when they start the slide, I think he can still contribute at a very high level in the right offense.
