I am satisfied as well as long there some pass-rush veterans coming into the mix.
Carson may not be respected by non-Seahawks fans and FF peeps but he is by defensive players that have to battle against him on the field. Carson is a big part of the dream for what Pete Carroll wants in a smash-mouth run game and Wilson is just a much better QB with Carson in the huddle. It’ll be interesting to see if Waldron can get Carson into space through a successful scheme rather than Carson earning his toughness.
Speaking of Waldron’s scheme, there was doubts, if this team had enough personnel especially at TE to attack the middle of the field similar to the Ram’s scheme. So getting Everett imo was vital and is impactful to getting Waldron’s vision to Pete’s vision of getting Carson back. Everett is fun because unlike most guys we sign he has a higher ceiling and the potential to be dangerous with his opportunity to work with Russ and Waldron as a weapon with this offense.
My favorite move is trading for Gabe Jackson. This is a bonafide pass-blocker OG, probably the best one on paper we’ve seen in a Seahawks jersey since Steve Hutchinson. This helps Wilson. This helps Brown. This helps Pocic and thus on. I think he’s a tremendous upgrade from Iuputi in terms of fitness and pass-blocking. Jackson isn’t known as force as run-blocker but he has familiarity with scheme Seahawks want to run on paper making his transition easier.
Poona deserve his raise. As did Bellore.
I’m fine with Witherspoon in the mix as long as he’s maximizing the opportunity, bless him with some Carroll DB dust, and he could be just as effective as Shaq, imo, and it helps him having DJ Reed also here to bro it up.
