Seahawks looking for o-line help

Per CBS Sports

http://www.seattletimes.com/sports/seah ... -deadline/

It's great that they're acknowledging the line isn't better. But I highly doubt they'll give up any of their "young WR's" to get line help. They love Kearse too much. And I doubt they'll trade a high draft pick for line help just because it takes a lot of time to get out of town linemen to learn a completely new playbook in 2 weeks. I have a hunch they'll wait for the off-season to improve the line.

What happened to the text font? I kinda liked it better before.

I think they might trade Matthews because we don't pass to him enough to value him, and just use him for blocking. He caught the first four passes targeted this year, but that took three games. Not sure if he got any more targets. He should have trade value from staring in the Superbowl. What a huge, or perhaps tall, waste.

*starring

Seahawks have almost no cap room to add a veteran player. Mack has a base of $8M this year.

1 offseason
1 training camp
1 preseason
7 games

Too late

Nothing new here.

The o-line is in the classic "It is what it is" situation.

Is there a link to what cbs reported? The Bob Condotta article is more speculation than anything.

Thanks!

As to the article, who the heck do we have at receiver to trade that someone wants?

Prich isn't even going to have a chance to play before the trade deadline.

If they could get anything for Kearse I'm sure the Seahawks jump on that, but Kearse trade bait? Okkkkay.

After that it really only leaves Doug Baldwin which I would be surprised if Seattle traded him away.

Joe Thomas please

Saw this on Twitter:

"@JasonLaCanfora: Seahawks working hard to try to upgrade offensive line before the deadline. Wiling to move WRs like Chris Matthews to do so"


Maybe if he's thrown in with a draft pick.

Mathews and Richardson have upside. Would love for it to be Kearse but I doubt it

I posted this in the other draft day thread, but it bears repeating here.

Browns looking to trade Alex Mack and Joe Thomas?

:stirthepot:

Given the way (IMHO) teams overvalue draft picks and the Hawks are flush with picks relative to spots available, I could see us making some hay before the deadline.

Please don't trade PRich.

Mathews and a pick or two or Kearse and a pick or two are possible though I doubt anyone is very hot on Kearse. IMO, P-Rich and Angry Doug ain't goin' anywhere.

I'd love for this to happen though, especially if by some miracle it brought us Joe Thomas. What's the chances we trade Okung and his expiring contract along with a WR and/or picks for Thomas. It would get Cleveland out of any obligation to pay the LT position next season. I know this is unlikely, but I'm just fantasizing a bit here so..........anyone else on board with my fantasy?

Would LOVE to see Mack here too.

We don't play Matthews so a trade involving him would be something for nothing.
We need OL more than prich. Some actual blocking and we'd be just fine throwing to Graham and the pips.
We don't have anyone besides Lockett that is good enough to be untouchable.

Should've just signed Mathis. The information was the same during preseason when we had the chance.

they wont trade p rich... did everyone forget how good it was last year before he got hurt.
he is our best route runner. has good hands, and is on a rookie contract....
