Seahawks signing Marquise Goodwin

[Maelstrom787]

The spot created by waiving Levi Lewis is going to deep threat receiver Marquise Goodwin.

Goodwin, a track long jumper (and receiver, obviously) in college, ran a 4.27 at the 2013 NFL combine. His best season came with San Francisco in 2017, notching 962 yards and 2 TDs.

Competition for Freddie Swain, Dee Eskridge, Penny Hart, and Bo Melton as WR3.

I like it.

 

[Chawker]

But, why ?... Its not like petes going to find a sure handed star at the WR position. I think time and money would be spent on other positions, like MLB.

Love to see a foot race of Goodwin, Tariq, and DK. Come to think of it, does anyone know how many sub 4.35 sec guys that we have on the team?

Melton ran a .34 I believe.

I don’t necessarily see this as trying to make the WR room better but perhaps the DB room better.

I think he is too old and too short to make it as a Pete Carroll CB??

 

[Scout]

A good signing to push the younger players on the roster.

It's not like a stud mike is just sitting out there either, though. This is the 90 man roster. Most of the signings at this stage aren't for need.

That's just a little bit better than average, if we're being real.

Otherwise, he's been mediocre. Surely, he's here to compete for WR3/WR4 against Swain and Eskridge. Good guy to have on the 90.

A little Seahawk news never hurt any Monday morning!

I see this as, lets break down Goodwins body rather than DK's body in practice.

I hope he can still contribute in the return game. If he can do that, then I would say it was a good signing.

He's not coming in to be WR1 or WR2. This is a great depth signing. I think he'll be a good mentor for the young guys too: "I ran a 4.27; faster than all y'all. You think speed is all it takes to be a receiver? Think again."

 

[TeamoftheCentury]

Could be a nice below the radar signing. Hope I'm wrong, but the game just seems to be a little too big for Eskridge. I'd love for any of you to argue that and make me feel better. I'm more excited about our 7th round choice.

 

[SNDavidson]

Looks like we're doing what's in our power to create an offense full of outlets for the QB.

 

[sutz]

Hard to argue about Eskridge. He's been a bit of a disappointment so far, largely because of injury maybe, but still, he needs to show some real development to be more than a fringe player who will always be on the bubble come cutdown day.

This Goodwin signing has a feel to it that he's much more than camp fodder. The bottom 2-3 spots on the WR list are really all that are open, and with a more robust emphasis on a strong running game, we might not keep more than 4-5 WR this year. The RB and TE rooms might be crowded this year. Padding those spots could be at the expense of WRs.

McVay always has a lightning quick smaller guy on his team:
Tutu Atwell
Brandin Cooks
Tayvon Austin...

There is a reason they picked Eskridge. He has a specific role.

 

[SonicHawk]

I was really hoping it was Godwin.

 

[toffee]

Gotta wonder what does the signing of Godwin meant for Eskridge?
