Dude... sure its an added bonus in "collecting intel" but...
1. I think they know Tarvaris Jackson is going to move on after this season and be a quality stopgap starter for some team.
2. In preparation to point 1, the Seahawks grabbed a QB that is similar to Wilson and one that should fit well into the system.
3. Carroll said they had their eye on Daniels, I think before the SFO game, so its no surprise to see him added
4. Wilson is problem getting a little worn-out and the Seahawks problably could use the extra arm. Remember, last year he was only getting a third of the carries in TC last year (now he's getting #1 snaps) and I feel he's been taking way more big hits this year.
Edit: I'll agree the Seahawks had no problem adding Daniels (because of the Harper thing) and enjoyed the fact they could claim him while the rumor is the 49ers were trying to put him on their PS.
But I don't agree the Seahawks did this just to 1UP the 49ers and steal Intel. The Seahawks tried out a LS. Margagos followed McLoughlin. We signed M-Rob in 2010. And we traded LoJack for Balmer also in 2010. And reciever Brett Swain was a JS pick and a Packer before he was a 49er. And Braylon Edwards won the big and old competion by being the biggest and youngest of a veteran try-out group
Their is no spy war, just Harbaugh and Co. being classless in handling the Harper situation.
