    Lock contadicts js on expectations

    Shiny object syndrome started with the Percy Harvin trade. Pete killed it in the draft and personnel decisions (like the Lynch trade) when he had his finger on the pulse of college football, either by playing against the players we ended up drafting or bringing in as UDFA, heard from former...

    Grading Seahawks 2024 Free Agents

    I think the plan is Colson but taking him at #16 is way too high, JS needs to trade down a bit and not tip his hand in the process, so signing Dodson & Baker may be part of that strategy to secure Colson if we could get him early 2nd. Its interesting because the Brooks draft was a similar issue...

    Is there a LB in the draft comparable to Roquan Smith?

    I think you're right. Many teams behind us in the 1st could end up reaching on an LB (Packers, Rams, maybe Cardinals).

    Our pre-draft Front Seven

    Seems very likely JS trades down from #16 to take Edgerin Cooper or Junior Colson as our 1st pick, wherever that ends up at. Both are meant to be very good against the run. Cooper is faster, seems to be closer to Roquan athletically. They could also go Payton Wilson whose an elite athlete but...

    How are you feeling about the Roster RN?

    Its only a playoff roster if many of the young guys make the next jump. Witherspoon, Woolen & Mafe need to become stars, several others like Hall, Morris and Young need to show something, Love has to step up to become a top 15 safety, at least one or two of these late round O-linemen (Oluwatimi...

    Poll: Leonard Williams trade

    The counterargument to this is you dont know the number of FA deals in the past that Seattle lost out on for reasons having nothing to do with money. What if Seattle had made the highest offer for Javon Hargrave last year but he chose to go to 49ers because he wouldn't be expected to lead the...

    Poll: Leonard Williams trade

    Not sure Geno's resurgence was him "manifesting" results out of pure belief. People act like Geno overcame such massive odds, out of nowhere, but the stank on his career was because he had the unfortunate path into the league by being drafted onto the Jets, who only ruin everyone they ever...

    Jordyn Brooks to Miami (3 years, $30m)

    They also rate Jon Rhattigan at a 72.3. Seems like PFF exists solely to inflate/deflate fans expectations about how good players actually are.

    Seahawks hiring Aden Durde as DC

    He helped to launch the International Players Program about 5-6 years ago. Also, he was the DC for 6 years it says for the London Warriors, who were champions of the British professional American football league for 5 of 6 years in the UK from 2013-2018, which means he probably was with the...

    Does Macdonald keep Geno?

    That’s fine, we should flip them something for him, we could use the massive savings cutting ties with Geno for free agents.

    Does Macdonald keep Geno?

    I doubt it, look around the league, most teams without a top 10 starter are either locked into an expensive contract which isn’t paying off (Watson, RW, Carr, Daniel Jones, Stafford, Kyler, etc), or are stuck with a young project QB who they sunk too much draft capital into (Carolina...

    Does Macdonald keep Geno?

    Why not sign Jake Browning? Won’t be too expensive. Has the UW homecoming thing (which hasn’t been a storyline here forever). He went 4-5 but had a 70% completion rating, so kind of exactly what we were paying Geno to do, but at 1/3 the price

    Dan Quinn & Mike MacDonald Interviews

    Something to remember, Jim Mora brought Dan Quinn into the organization, it wasn't Pete or John who initially hired him. They brought him back to Seattle after Gus Bradley left, but that may have been the obvious move at the time given his ties to the organization. I just dont know if we can...
