Unless it's for Derrick Henry, we will get nothing more valuable than him

Absolutely not, He's our 3rd best offensive player behind Geno & DK. This Oline needs to be fixed in the offseason and Kenny will explode if that happens. I can't believe that thought accurately came to anyone's mind...

Two things this is not.

1. It's not baseball, where players can be largely plug and play.

2. It's not fantasy football, where you can get your fellow league mates drunk and take advantage.

:LOL:
You can do that in your league????….my league almost never trade players!!!!

So Trade Lockett to KC, trade DK to highest bidder, trade Walker, Trade Geno, Trade Williams, Trade JSN because he is not used correctly either, Trade Riq because he is not as good as his rookie year,.

Did I miss anyone, so thats maybe three 5ths a 3rd, and 3 6th rounders, desperation trading rarely pays off.

Are you all forgetting that Paul Allen stated that the team be sold for his charity work. If the team was burned down and rebuilt it would be just about time for Jody Allen to sell it per Paul's wishes.
We don't have the time for a total rebuild from the ground up, in my opinion.
How bout we just keep the base players (you know them) and rebuild the O line (and other D areas) as best we can, with the time given.

I just read your post and yes,
It does sound crazy.

It just looks like a lot of pissed off fans that want something to be done ... ANYTHING!!!

Lets get rid of 40 or so players and " start over". Do you have any idea how that would look?
I don't think there is a scenario where that's feasible. How many rounds in an NFL draft?
Seven? Ok , after that you're signing other teams' castoffs , contract disputes , injuries , malcontents , age outs.

Or the team would've signed the player themselves!

I don't agree with this at all.
I wouldn’t get rid of 40+. But, a long term plan by loading up on picks isn’t the worst idea one can think of.

Too many castoffs already. Stick with the draft unless there’s a can’t miss trade or FA.

If the O-line isn’t fixed within the next few years, I don’t see a lot of players ‘wanting’ to play here.

Or, we can continue this decade long cellar dwelling.

Brendon Nelson suggested this in a recent video. I love K9, but the guy is being totally wasted in Seattle. And are we really going to extend him when we don't have 4/5 of our line settled? Might as well have a no name back running behind this atrocious line and get something for K9 while we can.
"Brendon Nelson suggested." 😂 😂 😂

Yes…suggestions sound crazy. OPs suggestion sounds crazy right?

Underlying point is that no RB will do well with this O-line.

So rather than “lol…online GM, etc…”, what’s YOUR solution?

We don’t have a lot of capital…I translate OPs comments as acquiring some.

Connor Williams was responsible for both of Ken Walker's overtime run stuffs. He had some good things in Dallas but generally this has not been a good signing for us.

Maybe I miss read your original post.

I thought it said something along the lines of keeping 10 to 12 players , and again with a 7 round draft , Seattle would be looking at years to rebound. And this is if JS and company hit on these unknown draft choices. It's not a guarantee as we know all too well.

The defense will get better as the season progresses, this basically leaves fixing the o line and I'm on board with Seattle making a change at QB.

I know it's not that simple but I think they can make the team better without drastic moves like a fire sale half way through MM first season as HC.

Possibly right Morg..and definitely frustration coming through.

I love DK and K9. I’ve come to what I believe to be the realization that they may be ‘wasting’ away in Seattle.

As the draft is a crapshoot, I don’t see how they rectify this roster without having a ton of capital in-hand (which we do not).

Maybe sacrifices need to be made to give MM the resources he needs.

No easy answer here.

💯.

I guarantee you Charb could average 5 YPC…with an average line.
Maybe a stretch SoulFish 🤣😂.

Premise being…if we don’t develop a line, K9 will waste away here.

You were captain of the Trade DK bandwagon, so maybe sit this one out?

Though I'm forced to agree on the quality of Nelson...




(right after JSN's drop for the first interception)

I'll go ahead and comment when I feel like it, thanks though, guy.

Trade DK "bandwagon"? Is that what you call yourself too when you have a grievance with the team? Weird.

Thank you. And again, it wasn't my suggestion. It came up on my youtube recommendations. I'm not a big fan of Brendon Nelson, but the title was something about what should the Hawks do before the trade deadline so I checked it out and was just curious about what others thought.
