    Something I just can't let go of

    It's kind of funny: RW actually had better stats than a lot of SB MVP's that preceeded him, but the game was incredibly dominated by the Hawks D, so the MVP had to go to a defender. The thing is, Kam and Malcolm were tied for most tackles with 6 solo tackles and 4 assists. Kam and Malcolm each...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    Like I said: it would be cool to trade down our #26 pick for a 2nd rounder and a 3rd rounder. No pick 1st round...Clark on Day 2 at #56. No project in the 1st round. Of course Jaylon Smith will not likely last to #26, although if Rankins is available, I wouldn't trade that #26 pick.

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    Tretola is not known for his pass protection regardless of zero sacks, and it would not be worth using a 1st round pick for another guy that won't protect Wilson. Bear in mind, if nobody special falls to the #26 pick, it would be awesome to trade the 1st round pick for a 2nd and 3rd round pick...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    I never assumed that draft picks will automatically turn out to be an improvement. I have no problem re-signing Mebane, Rubin, Okung and Sweezy, but only at the right price. We simply don't have a lot of cap space this year. I have a bad feeling that these 4 linemen will end up being priced out...

    Tharold Simon...

    I don't understand how you can blame Simon for playing in SB49. It's one thing for PC to allow Earl, Sherm and Kam play through injuries...they are seasoned vets. The decision to keep Burley inactive and to make Simon active is totally on PC. Simon DOES NOT make those kind of decisions, and if...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    I'm not sure how many restructures they will want to do, just to kick the can down the road for another year. There are 17 UFA's, and 14 RFA's/ERFA's. 31 total FA's. That's a lot of free agents in one year. One other issue comes to mind: in the last few seasons, how many times did the Seahawks...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    Actually, the cap is $24.5 million when you add in savings from the retirement of Lynch. The situation is more dire than you can imagine, especially if what you want is to re-sign some of our Free Agents. There are currently 31 (THIRTY-ONE) FA's on the Seahawks...this includes UFA's, RFA's and...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    At this point, Spotrac is using some different numbers than Overthecap. Spotrac is estimating the cap at $154 million for 2016. I think most estimates are $150 million, but it could end up higher. On Spotrac, they only have 38 players figured against the cap. The final number for the cap will be...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    I just don't see where the space will come from. I think this offseason will be by far the toughest yet when it comes to the cap. They simply don't have much space to work with. I guess they could get lucky and have some of these UFA's sign for cheap, but I don't see that happening. If they...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    If you go to Overthecap.com, we have $18 million before Lynch, so at that estimate, we have $24.5 million. You then have to sign RFA's, ERFA's, at least a few UFA's, draftees, space for IR, etc. There really isn't a lot of space to spend on expensive UFA's like Irvin, Okung, Sweezy, Mebane and...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    I think people get too accustomed to having the same starters every week regardless of whether they are being productive every game. I realize it's a small sample size, but look how well Glowinski played in Week 17. It's impossible to improve things without taking some risks at some point. I...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    The 2016 draft is loaded with O-Line and DT's. They can also find some inexpensive FA's that would be just as good as Mebane, Okung and Sweezy for a lot less money. I'd be good with keeping Rubin for $3 million or less. I don't want to be one of those guys that thinks a player that was good 4...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    I guess I wouldn't mind keeping Rubin at the right price, but I don't think they can afford to pay both him and Mebane. This year's draft is loaded with good DT's...this would be the year to replenish the D-Line. With a couple of good DT picks, I think it would be a good time to part ways with...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    So your thinking that we should keep a guy that is injury prone at a salary that no one else in the NFL would be willing to pay? Okung is now a far cry from that Pro Bowler in 2012. $8 million is a LOT of money to pay to a guy that is ranked the #31 OT by PFF with a below average grade.

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    The reason I used tackles was only to gage their production as compared to previous years. I could use sacks, but that would look even worse and I think it would be less pertinent. I believe that Mebane and Rubin's lack of production made life a lot more difficult this year for the LOB. Look, I...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    If they spend at least 2 of their O-Line picks between #56 and #98, I'd be in heaven. I guess I don't really care if they pick at least 3 O-Linemen total, rather than 4. I just don't want picks like Poole or Sokoli this year. No more projects! I think Glowinski was probably a good pick. If they...

    Dream Scenario for the 2016 Offseason

    All of us have to come to the realization that JS/PC will NOT have a bunch of cap space, and there will not be anywhere near enough money to sign our most expensive FA's. I would re-sign Kearse and Lane, but only if they aren't too expensive. Then, trade our first round #26 pick for a 2nd...

    Tentative 2016 Draft Pick Order for Seahawks

    Regarding the extra/4th compensatory pick, the scenario needed to receive that extra pick is hard to explain. Nobody actually knows the exact formula the NFL uses to award these picks. You can read about it at overthecap linked above. My understanding is that these picks have to do with number...

    Tentative 2016 Draft Pick Order for Seahawks

    My 2016 Draft Wish List: Round 1- Pick #26…DT/DE…Billings, Nkemdiche, Rankins, Butler, Lawson, Spence, Bullard. Round 2- Pick #56…OT/C…Spriggs, Ifedi, Clark, Martin. Round 3- Pick #90…DE/DT…Day, Nassib, Kaufusi, Oakman. Round 3- Pick #98…OG/OLB…Tretola, Fackrell, Deion Jones, Jenkins. Round 4-...
