With Baldwin now gone, why does anyone believe that WR is not just as important or possibly even more important than an experimental edge rusher?

Because the Seahawks won their lone championship on riding their defense. Defense wins championships.

Man, I had forgotten of football iilliterate some people are on here. This is a no-brainer.

You got the "no-brainer" part right...just misused the word a bit. :roll:

Ya..."we are one Metcalf away from being back to a #1 defense". :sarcasm_off:

Metcalf would try to bend around the edge and end up in the stands.

Bad idea.

He's 6 foot 3, not Stretch Armstrong. He can't bend that far.

Maybe put Tyler Lockett at the 3 technique.
Not sure what you're thinking here. Lockett has a nice first step but I don't think you can count on him to hold up against the run over a 16 game season and then potentially another 4 playoff games. He'd probably be OK against Laken Tomlinson but we only play the 49ers twice.

DJ Fluker at nickel back!

Putting a 50 cent piece at nickel would be 10x better!!!

Why stop here. Let’s put Duane brown at DT. We could put Ifedi next to him. Have Britt play the 5. Let’s put Cody Barton at WR. BKk could play running back and we could have Carson at the edge / Leo. Championship!

That ; and he wasn't drafted for the defense. He's gonna be Wilson's new boy toy WR...The DL is worrisome to me...it's a damn good thing ; that the Hawks have maybe the best LB crew in the league ...they will be working overtime this season to compensate . IMO

That was tasteless imo.

Was definetly a bit out of bounds, that's for sure.

Reminds me of an analogy Pmedic made about rest areas yesterday. Something about "if they're clean that means good mods" and if they're dirty "that means making fun of the disabled" And then something about footprints in the rest areas means the good mods carried the disabled through their most trying times. I think that was it? I don't know. It was hard to keep up. The thread is in the shack.

Correct I mean the offense ever even needed to play at all. The defense scored enough points every game by themselves. NOT.

If we convert him to DL, Cable can convert him to OL. Then, he can report as pass-eligible and really make the most of his experience as a receiver.

Sure, why not?

If we are speaking hypothetical... Lets put Russel Wilson at MLBer and move the punter to QB? We could even put PC in a pink tutu. Now wouldn't that be special.

Not meant to offend ; but it's really only tasteless if one truly believes that he is " disabled ". He doesn't consider himself disabled and neither do I .
