Seahawks sign TE Gerald Everett from Rams

Mind as well go after Todd Gurley.

He always looked pretty good against us. Nice signing.

Another try at a FA TE for 6/1. Not cheap for a second string TE for a team with little cap space.

Ok, not bad! And is not 30+. I’ll take it.

I thought it was Higbee who always gave the Hawks fits?

Him also. I thought I remembered Everett going off for like 140 on us once.

Screw it, they both gave this team fits, like most of the opposing TEs throughout the league have for what seems like an eternity.

Terrible signing. Cant block. Supposedly we have little cap room and use it on another TE who we dont use(maybe it changes). Still no oline or dline signings. Barely less than the olsen signing, will we ever learn.

No. Zach Miller was the best TE this regime has ever invested in, and they used him to block 90% of the time. Crazy that he was one of the very first PC/JS signings.

Everett comes from the Los Angeles Rams, where he played under new Seahawks offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, who was previously LA’s passing game coordinator and was Rams tight ends coach during Everett’s rookie season.

Waldron is expected to bring a lot of concepts from the Rams to his offense with Seattle, and tight ends have played a big role in the Los Angeles offense that Waldron helped run under head coach Sean McVay.

Not the move I would have made, especially at that price. Hope he makes a fool out of me.
Helps to have an in with a newly hired coordinator.

Well Waldon should know how to use him. Now, can Russ find him? :twisted:

Seahawks just signed Gerald Everett to a one-year deal worth $6 million.

Good signing IF we actually use him though I’m not sure how, if at all, this appeases RW.

Lots of needs. Not lots of cap space but maybe we just are not as creative in that area as other teams?

I have to admit, I was hoping we'd sign him to a short term deal. Seems like a fit and offers something that Disley and Parkinson don't. Not the same player, but at times he reminds me of a poor man's Anquan Boldin.

YEAR / GAMES / REC / YDS / TD
2020 / 16 / 41 / 417 / 1
2019 / 13 / 37 / 408 / 2
2018 / 16 / 33 / 320 / 3
2017 / 16 / 16 / 244 / 2

Seriously? This is a $6M tight end? GREAT SIGNING!

Even if he was productive, Seahawks do not know how to use TEs.

Glad they spent $6M for $1.1M of value. At least they didn't waste money on a decent DE or RB. They should be able to fill those positions for $1-2M no problem. LOL at this sorry excuse for a front office.

Would rather see that go to an oline or de..guess Dissly and Parkinson are just guys...swing and a miss picks

An anticipated move. System fit TE for the Seahawks at the right price. He's a $5M player with $10M potential. He's a poor blocker who doesn't show any willingness to become better at that part of the game. He's not good on timing routes and his hands are inconsistent. He's a play-breaks-down receiver who needs an ad-lib QB. He's a medium, (and deeper), receiving threat with enough speed and physicality to create chunk plays. He's been a tease for 4 years in a system that didn't fit him. I'd liken him to a smaller and less explosive Jared Cook.
