Wilson to Largent - two undersize magicians who's careers are defined by just making plays. If Doug were healthy I'd prob go Tez also.

Tez would fill a more pressing need, but how can you not want arguably the greatest LT ever protecting our best QB ever? This offense would be unstoppable.

Honorable mention to prime Galloway or Koren Robinson. Both unbelievable players at their peaks, and true difference makers when their heads weren't up their asses.

It's not that you don't "want him". It's you are trying to build the best team possible which usually starts with replacing the weakest link (or make the biggest upgrade over what you have), Brown is not the weakest link, he is one of the better ones. That is why I went with Hutch next to Brown.

And agree....Largent is a close 2 or 3.

Brown has been in the league a long time, I think he could figure out the right side pretty quickly, and likely do it much better than Ifedi.

I understand weakest link, but we're talking about a GOAT.

But that's the question, right NOW for the rest of the season what Hawk would you want on this team.

So pressing need is the most important thing to consider, and no one thinks Brown > Jones..........but we've got serious problems in the defensive backfield and D-line, so we gotta go there.

Need more proof?

#3 2005 Seahawks (with Hutch) 153.6 YPG and 29 TD's
#14 2006 Seahawks (without Hutch) 120.2 YPG 8 TD's

Hutchinson next to a Brown would be FAR better than Jones next to Sweezy.

2013 Michael Bennett

The main glaring issue on this team is the lack of pressure on the QB.

Although the premise is correct, there's no way I'd ever select Bennett over Tez. It's not even close in my book. Tez every single time.

I don't believe that they pass enough to take full advantage of a prime Jerry Rice or Steve Largent.

Prime John Randle and Cortez Kennedy are absolute game wreckers, and I think Pete Carroll would turn a peak Julian Peterson into a DMVP caliber player.

I'm going with Earl Thomas. Pass D is a weakness right now and Earl at his best is an absolute eraser who makes everyone around him better.

I said Tez earlier but Sherm and ET would be my next to choices.

The premise is not even correct IMO. Jacob Green had far better pressure and sack stats than Bennett. He also was a total team player, not a total ME player.

Hard to argue with Earl in his prime, definitely a position of need this year. But I'd also need Earl's attitude in it's prime, and not grumpy I need to feed my family Earl.

Chris Clemons. The interior of the Dline is doing their job and I think if we had Chris Clemons to rush opposite our other young studs this Defense would be top 5.

by "premise", I was talking about the fact that we could use pass rush pressure, and we seem to agree on that part. As I said, although I enjoyed Bennett while he was here, and he's definitely talented, I would take Tez every single time as far as what he can do to improve pass pressure. Can you imagine if we had Clark running free due to double teams on Tez?

No doubt that Tez eclipses the other defensive choices IMO. :2thumbs: I was more discussing the logic of "other choices". Largent is an interesting (excellent) choice too, but with Pete a huge running game contributor may be a better choice. Tough to say no to Largent on offense though.

Jacob Green had four years that were better then Chris Clemon's best year. 16 sacks > 11 sacks.

We also need to clarify something because people are throwing out names like Jerry Rice and John Randle. IMO this needs to be when a player played HERE, and not their best years somewhere else.

Agree. Needs to be Seahawks that we saw play while here. No Franco Harris, no Warren Moon, no Jerry Rice....ect.

And thank you for the Jacob Green love!....few remember anymore. :|

If you could pick any past Seahawk player.


Geezus, I wasn't aware there was a right or wrong answer. Last time I checked, the question was asking people's opinions.

Carry on experts.

Can you really not have a calm discussion about why we made our choices? Jeesus....chill out.
