Even with the new contract for Geno Smith, the Seahawks, Pete Carroll, John Schneider remain in the running to draft a top quarterback (Anthony Richardson?)

[Carroll said last week in Indianapolis.](https://www.thenewstribune.com/sports/nfl/seattle-seahawks/article272625759.html) “This is a really huge opportunity for us. “There’s a lot invested in Geno, and Geno’s invested lot in us, so then when the time comes when he finally gets a chance to play...we had an inkling that there was something really special there, but we didn’t know. Having 40-50% of the possible total money paid within the first year means if the Seahawks have a college quarterback they love available in the draft at five — or even at, say, nine if they So what is expensive for Seattle with Smith’s new deal this year will be less so in the next three years. These Seahawks were in the playoffs last season. “It’s the position we are in. Even while re-signing Smith, his new contract keeps the Seahawks in what coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider said last week at league’s scouting combine they were all-in on: taking a quarterback at the top of next month’s draft. This is Seattle’s opportunity to draft an elite quarterback to have at rookie, minimum cost for four years, longer than Smith’s new contract. Again, it would only be that high if Smith was one of the league’s best passers the next three seasons. The base value of the deal is three years and $75 million, as [NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo first reported](https://twitter.com/MikeGarafolo/status/1633118752563765250) Tuesday. In a league where for players guaranteed cash is king, Smith gets $40 million guaranteed up front. Carr, the former Raiders captain, one year younger than Smith, got $60 million guaranteed at signing.

Despite signing Geno Smith to a new contract, the Seahawks may consider selecting a quarterback in the first round of this year's NFL Draft.

As dynasty fantasy football managers are in full swing, where does the dynasty value of Geno Smith stand, and where does he come in for our rankings?

Currently, Smith is ranked as the QB18 in our updated dynasty rankings and comes in as the No. The collective dynasty community was waiting on what would happen with Smith, as it is difficult to lock him into the correct spot in rankings when you don’t have all the information. Smith is either a hold or a buy for me, as I do expect him to be a starter in 2023. From a dynasty aspect, Smith staying in Seattle was the best outcome. Not only that, but Smith also led the entire league with a 69.8% completion percentage and was sixth in EPA+CPOE. No surprise that Smith was one of the biggest overachievers when comparing ADP to production.

Quarterback Geno Smith reached a deal with the Seattle Seahawks Monday, signing for three years and $105 million.

Smith led the Seahawks to a 9-8 record and a While a developmental quarterback for the future could be on the agenda, it becomes less of a need for Seattle now that Smith’s immediate future is settled. Last season was the first time Smith had been a full-time starter since 2014 with the New York Jets. But his season was still good enough to answer one of Seattle’s biggest questions for the next couple of years. He threw 30 touchdown passes and just 11 interceptions, completed 399 passes and led the NFL in completion percentage at 69.8%. NFL Network and The Score reported the deal could be worth up to $105 million.

By keeping the length to a minimum, Seattle was able to maintain long-term flexibility in the event that 2022 was an anomaly for Smith. It's a calculated risk in avoiding the franchise tag for what could end up being a one-year wonder. Seattle still has not ruled out drafting a quarterback with the fifth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, which makes the contract length on Smith's deal something to monitor. Smith's deal will put him right on the cusp of the league's 10 highest-paid quarterbacks, alongside fellow NFC quarterbacks like Kirk Cousins ($35 million AAV) and Jared Goff ($33.5 million AAV). Geno Smith is staying put in the Emerald City after a breakout year in 2022. This new contract will pay Smith an average of $35 million per year.

New details for Geno Smith's three-year contract make it clear that the Seahawks got a serious discount for his services.

He has $30 million in incentives. In order for this contract to go bad Smith would either have to suffer a career-ending injury this coming season or permanently regress to the type of quarterback he was early in his career with the Jets. He has a total of $30 million in incentives.

"Whatever we do, he's going to take it in stride," Carroll said. "That opportunity is absolutely there," Carroll said. It's a really strong part of the contract, and I think that's maybe why ownership is so happy with it, too: if you perform and you get it done, gladly we would reward [you]. "When you guys get your chance and you really dig in, you'll see that it is leaning that way, where we're counting on him coming through and doing the things that he was able to do last year, and if he does that, he's going to get rewarded," Carroll said. We're going to have a real chance to be at our best. Carroll didn't specify any numbers but confirmed that the contract is incentive-laden.
