    Mike Wallace to the Seahawks,......would be MASSIVE

    Rice could become a cap casualty eventually, but not this year. We have plenty of cap space right now.

    Mike Wallace to the Seahawks,......would be MASSIVE

    It's not so much that "they are not going to". I am sure if they could, they would love to. The problem is that in their current situation with the salary cap, they CAN"T tag him because it would count as $10m against the cap.

    Which Free Agents fit in with the Hawks?

    Wallace runs the 40 in 4.33 seconds and has led the Steelers in receiving for 3 or his 4 years in the NFL. He is only 26 years old and will likely not be resigned by Pittsburgh, based on their current salary cap situation, unless there is a big change in the positions he and the Steelers front...

    Seahawks talk Dwight Freeney

    . The problem is that the Seahawks defensive scheme is very 3-4 like, with 3 large run-stopping linemen with the weak side defensive end (the LEO) being a smaller edge rusher, much like a 3-4 OLB. Clemons is 6-3, 255; Irvin is 6-3, 248. Freeney is 6-1, 268, which is great for a Tampa 2 DE...

    Mike Wallace to the Seahawks,......would be MASSIVE

    The opposite is probably a better idea. Generally, the WR position is one of the hardest to adapt to the NFL and most WR take 2-3 years before they become significant contributors to their team. I think it is much more likely that the Seahawks find an immediate impact from the draft in the...

    POSSIBLE SEAHAWKS / JETS TRADE?

    The Seahawks have arguably the best secondary in the league. They don't need Revis. Putting Browner in the nickel is a BAD idea. He is too long and would get smoked by slot receivers. It also puts the Seahawks in a bad position financially. The next couple years have some significant...

    Seahawks talk Dwight Freeney

    IMO, going after the older guys is asking for problems and is completely against the Seahawks philosophy for building a team. They might sign them just to get them on the team in case they need them, but I see this being another Barrett Ruud/Terrell Owens/Kellen Winslow/Other old guys that...

    Mike Wallace to the Seahawks,......would be MASSIVE

    The problem the Steelers have right now is that with the 37 players currently signed to the Steelers roster, they are about 8 million over the 2013 cap. When you add RFA and ERFA, that climbs to about 16m over. If they sign all 7 draft picks, that brings them to 21m over the cap. The top 9...

    Seahawks talk Dwight Freeney

    He might end up in a Seahawks uniform, but I don't see them jumping at him, particularly after 5 sacks and 12 tackles in 2012. Maybe it was because of the transition from DE to OLB, but I'm more inclined to think it is because he is 33 years old.

    If/when we get rid of Flynn, would you want Hasselbeck back?

    I love Matt and all he was meant to this city, but I only want him back for a retirement ceremony.

    Why couldn't hutch stay with Seattle?

    That's not exactly right though. The Seahawks WERE offering him an extension all the way up to free agency, but only for $6m a year. Hutch wanted more like $7m, but the Seahawks were following conventional wisdom on Guard salaries and didn't want to pay him $7m. The reason they applied the...

    Why couldn't hutch stay with Seattle?

    7-time All-Pro, I say he absolutely makes it into the HOF. He is undoubtedly one of the best interior linemen to ever play the game and the Seattle/Minnesota fiasco was one of the key factors in establishing the value of a top Guard in the NFL.

    SI's Don Banks: 2012 NFL re-draft, 3 Hawks go top 15

    I think it was more in the fact that he was the one that was able to get the deal done. Lots of teams made the decision that they wanted to get Peyton Manning, including the Seahawks. The difference is in wanting and DOING. That said, I think what John Schneider did in the draft was FAR more...

    SI's Don Banks: 2012 NFL re-draft, 3 Hawks go top 15

    I would have been more impressed if this would have come from the Anti-Hawks Sports Network known as CBSSports and their Gasbag-in-Chief, Pete Prisco. SI has tended to be more favorable to the Seahawks, but I still think this is a pretty awesome article.

    Why couldn't hutch stay with Seattle?

    I think he also thought Hutch was a little too big for his britches and that this was some "tough love" to teach Hutch a lesson that Guards are the 2nd tier of the offensive line and should be paid as such.

    Why couldn't hutch stay with Seattle?

    It wasn't that Ruskell/Reinfeldt were too cheap to pay him, they were following a more conventional logic that said guards don't make tackle money. Steve was a special kind of guard and he knew it, and the application of the Transition Tag (which paid him the average of the top 10 guards in the...
