    Apparently O'Brien Schofield failed his physical w/ Giants

    I wish people would limit the salary envy to the mega "stars" that actually make exorbitant amounts. Of all the people to envy about contract size, O'brien Schofield? It's like homeless people envying garbage men's salaries while bank executives walk by with their noses turned up.

    Very good article about Tate's departure, FA stuff, and othe

    Tate is hard to replace and I'll miss him, but the decision to let him walk was correct, IMO.

    Very good article about Tate's departure, FA stuff, and othe

    Tate had 1. a QB in RW that limited bad throws and turnovers (and extended plays to allow separation). 2. an offense and team that bought into our philosophy and worked hard and encouraged each other towards championship seasons. He'll have none of those in Detroit. I'd argue quite the...

    What would it cost to trade up to 15 or 16?

    IMO our offensive identity is liable to change rapidly, with MRob and Lynch on the bubble of productive years. We'll be featuring Turbin, Coleman, and (I hope) CMike as quickly as 2015. Perhaps they can be trusted to pound the rock without an abrupt fall off, but giving RW the tools he needs to...

    What would it cost to trade up to 15 or 16?

    I don't know if it is an overreaction in the case of Evans, at least. He might not be a spectacular burner or really route polished, but he can block, run over corners, and dominated with a scrambling, play extending QB. With a better QB in RW both in decision making and pass placement, and...

    Pass rusher market is right where JS wants it

    would be a little disappointing to me to FA a Clemons replacement and leave Avril to be a really expensive Bruce Irvin. I guess if they think Avril can't hack 3 downs, they need to get someone that can.

    Front Office Pressure?

    That depends on what the consequences of not attaining high levels of performance are. Is the front office in danger of getting canned if they miss the playoffs? Or is it just hopes and fan expectations? I don't think they're under any pressure at all after exceeding expectations with RW in...

    Apparently O'Brien Schofield failed his physical w/ Giants

    I hope we can get OBS back but kind of sad they were smart enough to sign him to a good deal then dumb enough to dump him. Was a force in limited snaps with us.

    Punt Returning Options?

    http://www.seahawks.com/team/roster/Ricardo-Lockette/920e8c06-faae-4695-94ed-6c31429916d4 We aren't exactly up the creek as far as punt return options.

    Wide Receivers

    Hope big balls Pete makes a play on Mike Evans, myself. I can dream right?

    Golden Tate signs with the Lions

    Thanks for the memories Golden. Congrats on the big payday, and good luck in Detroit.

    Ware agreed to terms with Denver

    I hope that in the draft they also get a power running RB and a QB with an accurate, rocket arm. Ain't going nowhere against our D with Captain Checkdown refusing to run the ball. Money well wasted.

    The possibility is crazy!

    Monsters Clink.. much better

    BEST thing about Bennett's deal, could be Avril's future.

    Which is what I'm saying about writing the book on BI, or Mayowa, since one can't be written on a 6 year vet that's always played well with disruptive linemen around him. Easy to say pressure to snap count when you also have Clemons, McDaniel, and Bennett an OL needs to address. Irvin got...

    BEST thing about Bennett's deal, could be Avril's future.

    Great player is one thing, great enough to resign next year come repeat or top rated defense while he tests FA while we have a young DE in Irvin that has and could still thrive in the same rotational capacity is the issue. He isn't a Clemons who was out 2 games and recovering from ACL injury...

    BEST thing about Bennett's deal, could be Avril's future.

    Avril wasn't a 3 down DE in our system though, he was simply a veteran Bruce Irvin. Clemons got more snaps, legit rumors of trading for Jared Allen last year. Seems we didn't respect him as 3 down capable, either.

    BEST thing about Bennett's deal, could be Avril's future.

    If Avril was respected as a 3 down DE like Clemons, but much younger in 2013 Free Agency, he wouldn't have been signed by us on a short term prove it, he would have had a market. Michael Bennett had an injury question which is why he came cheap. Avril may be closer to the others to where...

    This team needs to trade up for Evans

    I think he would be a nightmare for D's with RW's style and especially in the mix with Harvin, Baldwin or Tate, Kearse, and Willson. I think he's too rich for their blood though, unless its a player for draft pick trade.

    Schofield to Giants

    Great for Schofield lol. Silly Giants.

    BEST thing about Bennett's deal, could be Avril's future.

    It's not about age as much as contract size and allowing developmental players to establish themselves. If they choose to stick with Avril long term for 500 snaps fine. I don't think it's necessary. Detroit Avril had Suh and Van den Bosch, or in Seattle Clem and Bennett on his DLs. He's a six...
