Take a step back.
Seattle got here with IMO two moves: trading for Harvin and Graham. The Seahawks became what they became because of how well they drafted. Both these trades were more or less busts and prevented Seattle from getting talented young players (assuming they hit on the picks, which is not a guarantee I admit).
I get potentially not wanting Pete back, but really, it all comes down to drafting, and my guess is there won't be anymore trades like that.
How you feel about the Seahawks future should be as simple as this: do you believe in Wilson?
If you do, it's time for Seattle to change their identity. Shed some of the bloated salaries on defense, and address the offensive line, WR position and RB position. Load up around Wilson.
Wagner and some young guys can carry that defense to middle of the pack.
This year blitz the offense, next year address the defense.
The Rams acquired an elite LT, a decent center, and upgrades at 3 WR positions in one offseason. That's borderline miraculous, but that's the kind of infusion Seattle needs.
It would help if the OC got fired, but there were a handful of games this year where the offense wasn't an issue.
If you believe in Wilson, you guys are in better shape than half the teams in the NFL already.
