This makes a lot of sense. Both Jimmy and Willson struggled in pass protection against the Rams. Tukes is described as a lunch-pail type guy. A true blocking tight end.

A college profile of the guy for those interested.

Good place to list the other 4 they worked out.

Good find. I updated the thread title to include the other guys.

Shaq Evans is a familiar name. I don't remember much about how he plays. Maybe some pac 12 fans have some info on him. I did see he was drafted in the 4th round last year before getting cut by the Jets, so there must have been something there.

We already have two good WRs on our PS, but I wouldn't mind making it three for Evans. He's kind of in the same boat as Kasen Williams, a physically talented WR who's working his way back from an injury.

As far as Tukes goes, I don't know anything about him, but it's encouraging to see the team acknowledging the redundancy and issues at TE.

Yep. Help at TE and SS is definitely needed.

Man, I hope Phillip Sims had a good showing!
I would really like him to be a Seahawk, and eventually backup Wilson in the future.

Scottemojo · Sep 15, 2015

Yeah. Two fullbacks, who saw the field on about 5 plays, and no blocking tight end.

It is time for Pete to admit Luke Willson is a waste of a roster spot and get a blocking TE.

Part of me is kind of wondering if they're trying to light a fire under the current team's butt

The Hawks bring in players every week, usually on Tuesday to work them out. It means nothing usually. They like to see what shape players on their huge master list are in. It is information gathering. I'm glad they brought in Sims. He'd be an interesting invite to camp next year.

Nothing on the OL?

Hands of stone and he was doesn't block for shite.

Time for an upgrade.

Yes we are actually going to fix things by doing it not just saying it :0190l:

Keeping both Willson and Helfet while cutting T.Y. McGill still doesn't make sense to me.
