Bennet a pain in the rear.

Pretty much what we already knew. At least he always gave a great effort regardless of what was going on.

2 of those offensive coaches are probably not with the team anymore.
...and they should have been paying more attention to their own jobs than what a defensive player is doing.

That being said it’s not surprising if MB was a pain in the ass at times. It was time for him and the team to move on.

This is gonna be a great year in Seahawk football.

Pretty obvious something was going on behind the scenes given his production and good contract.

I'm not buying this. If this was the case we would've heard something during the season. Also, Albert Breer, besides being a jackass, has no connection to the Seahawks. And even if true, bad move by the front office to trash players after they've left. If you're going to do that, at least take the better trade offer from the Pats.

So if the Patriots were willing to offer a low 3rd round pick, why did we take a much worse deal? One that was also within the NFC?

If true, what the HELL were they thinking?

Albert Breer is respectable and the front office didn't trash anyone, it says offensive coaches, which probably means Bevell/Cable.

That was discussed around page 3 of the main MB conversation. JS agreed to the move with Philly then the Pats came back with the reported 3rd round offer (not confirmed) but JS was committed to Philly and did not want to back out of the deal.

Why the **** would you not take the third rounder NE offered?

Gaw-dimmit.

They must like this Johnson chap.

Breer is Peter King's successor as mouthpiece for the NFL front office and ownership, so needless to say he has a vested interest in bashing Bennett because of his activism. And he's a racist, but that's not really a topic for this board.

Who the Hell cares about what the Eagles think. A deal is not done until the contract is signed. Deals get cancelled at the last minute in business all the time. That's a piss poor excuse when you are trying to get as much draft capital for this year as possible.

JS got schooled. WEAK DEAL MAKER

That is what they are saying. He gave great effort until last season when he picked his spots. We had many lapses on D between he and Richardson where we gashed for huge runs last year.

That was pure garbage, I am sure the offensive coaches were complaining, might be cause he was eating their O line up, as far as picking his spots, maybe so, he was playing with injuries and having more reps then he should have had.

No other details about the defensive side which is where he plays, Cable and Bevell might have complained, if they did their job with the offense what would there be to complain about?

The deal wasn't just a 3rd. It was Bennett and a 5th for the WR and a 3rd and the other deal was already agreed on prior.

Bennett is an easy punching bag. But I really, truly despise after the fact hit pieces. It’s like watching House of Cards

Shouldn't this be in the NFL forum now?

Fake news

I would find it extremely odd for several coaches to just make up stuff about Bennet. The fact he was traded for so little gain after we just resigned him and we gain so little cap room makes it pretty clear thats exactly what was going on.

I think Sherman is for sure out the door as well.

He had to be a huge pain in the ass because they let him go for a ham sandwich. There is no other way to spin it. Let the healing begin.
