So who are we protecting from the expansion draft?

Tatum, Brown, Queta, Hugo, White, Baylor, PP feel like the obvious 7, with 1 more spot. Some of this also depends on restricted FA status and expiring contracts, but I'm sure teams will work around that going forward.

You are getting way ahead of yourself.  Pritchard, for instance, will be a free agent heading into 2028, and we might have trouble offering him a market-value extension because his current deal is such a bargain.  Scheierman, meanwhile, will be a restricted free agent.

It is still something we have to think about and a fun exercise. 

I would see about trading PP to his home town.   It would help us and make him happy and help Seattle.  He is worth a first but I realize his contract might be up as you say.

I think the league will vote yes.

Pritchard, I think will want to test the market and he deserves it.   I think as was said, he will be out of price range and a guy not named here will be taking this slot.

Pritchard is from the Portland area, not Seattle.  Northwest, of course, but his hometown already has a team.

Also, it doesn?t seem like good business to trade arguably the most team friendly contract in the league.
