The Draft this year to me was a message sent to our secondary, get out of your comfort zone, quit being about you and get back to being about the team.
Since we beat the Broncos all the attention these guys got I think has went to their heads to a degree, not saying it wasn't expected and or natural, but the refocus on team message was just sent.
You make top end pay now you need to produce.
Your Older and now are a bit slower, need more time in training room, you need to step it up for one more run, the window on your playing career is coming to an end, you may get one more contract, win it all and it will be good and you can retire with a chance at the HOF.
We are bringing in hungry animals that want your job to push and maybe replace you, do you have what it takes to still compete and rise to the challenge? Or are you gonna go out kicking and screaming in the media ?
Now that we have these guys drafted we have the luxury of choice as well, be a Seahawk and give your all or be a Brown, Bill, Jet, you don't get to be a Patriot since your under contract still, besides Bill is cheap as hell when it comes to trade compensation.
Some of this was Tongue and Cheek granted, but the bottom line is look at the skill set we drafted and where they look to fit and where Pete would like them to fit, it is a virtual video or young LOB in the future, every position accounted for going forward, especially when including the redshirt guys and guys brought in and guys from IR.
We can cut our cap by a huge margin, get that aggressiveness back if they allow us to play more man yes looking at you Richard, and we may get that swagger back that has been missing and replaced with a business as usual mentality to a large degree.
The Message has been sent and I am sure all 3 of them have seen it with the draft, Shead isn't really included in this conversation but his notice is given as well we have a few pure cover guys that can play physical and faster for the RC spot.
The losers in all this, the receivers and RB's this off season and thru Camp, "When Allowed" practice is going to be brutal as these guys unleash the Boom on our own players. Pre Season get your Cameras and Phones ready, should be a bunch of classic snot locker hits out there to see as these guys bring it. I just hope we don't hurt each other.
