    Where do you get your hope for next season?

    Okay, I'll bite. It's easier to be negative than be hopeful. You go into a season feeling negative, you either get to be presently surprised or proven right. So I'll say, managing expectations. At the end of the day, you are looking at what historically happens to every team that experiences...

    Hurtt would be a HORRIBLE choice as DC

    No amount of coaching will turn Benson Mayowa into Cliff Avril, Rasheem Green into Michael Bennett, or Darrell Taylor into Chris Clemons. More than that, Seattle's use of Bear Fronts in 2020 and early 2021 impacted rush angles. There's a reason we didn't hear Dunlap's name much in the early...

    Better start scouting CB for our first pick.

    Seattle may draft a CB just based on the depth of the DL and OL in this draft. But if we re sign Reed (and hopefully Jones) I would imagine Seattle will look to fill other needs.

    Seahawks new DC Just Announced - Clint Hurtt

    Smart move. You have a coach that's already well respected by the players and knows the locker room. And can carry over the things the defense did well last year. Combining him with Donatell to help the DBs is good. Hopefully they can woo Desai as well for some youth. If they land both...

    Ed Donatell hired by Sea, but NOT as DC

    Everyone says how the Bengals O-line is worst than the Seaha

    How is Time to Pressure judged when the QB fails a quick game concept? I'll pull up the Arizona fumble again. That's instant pressure off the right side by design. And DK has the defender out leveraged with a clear throwing lane between Lewis and Brown. Russ has time throw that and beat the...

    Everyone says how the Bengals O-line is worst than the Seaha

    Two words. QB play. Burrow is a better quick game QB than Wilson. Wilson’s sack fumble against the Cards was his failure in quick game execution. The QB has a lot to do with the performance of the OL, and when your QB tends to see the field deep to short, your OL is going to be impacted. This...

    OT Trevor Penning

    He will likely be long gone before Seattle has a chance to pick. I haven't watched him, but you can already see the hype train building as the Senior Bowl is in progress.

    DLine Prospects for 2nd/3rd Rounds

    Well put together list. Wyatt, Mathis, Winfrey all seem like strong picks in the 2nd round if they are available. Travis Jones is a different player.. But having Jones, Poona, and Mone on the interior could really solidify the run defense and save us some money in FA. Mafe is having a strong...

    Players You Like?

    Going to toss in Boye Mafe as a player I like (Shout out to Rob's interview with Nagy for making me go look him up). If he tests well at the combine (Sub 1.6 10-Split) I would love to see Seattle come away with him. I would imagine they won't (Since they have Taylor) but Mafe has the same...

    Would you trade Wilson to the Giants for Blake Martinez and

    Which QB? Because I don’t think there’s a 1st round deserving QB in this class.

    Who is your 2022-2023 breakout player of the year?

    I hate to be that guy, but I’d bring Rasheem* Green. He’s only 25. And, per Brandon Thorn’s charting, is actually a productive player in his role. I don’t know if he’d be a “breakout” player. But I don’t think he’s a Collier type bust. Collier is what he is. Green has done a lot in Seattle...

    Would you trade Russ for Aidan Hutchinson?

    Well said. Still waiting to hear players you like in the draft this year Attyla :)

    Poll: Will the Seahawks rebuild our defensive line ?

    I expect they will. But I don’t expect a big signing. Miller and Jones will probably resign with Rams and Cards. They might be interested in bringing Clowney back, but he’s been marred by injury. I expect Green back. I think they may go after Jacob Martin again. I would love to see them go...

    Would you trade Russ for Aidan Hutchinson?

    The only way you trade a franchise QB, is with the intent of getting another one.

    Ken Norton Jr. Has Been Fired

    I think Clint Hurtt makes the most sense as a DC. We saw with Waldron’s offense that it can take a long time to implement major scheme change. Especially if players choose to skip OTAs again. Also keeps Hurtt from going to Miami. I also don’t think DC matters as much as personnel at this point...

    Players You Like?

    Trayvon Walker - Fully Expect him to rise firmly into the first round by the combine, but right now he’s a fringe first rounder and sometimes ranked as low as the 50s. He’s a bigger end, but he plays with real power and is athletic for his size. I’d run to the podium for his power at his age...

    What will be our great need in this years draft ?

    It could be just about anything because we have so many FA. My guess is going to be EDGE unless Seattle’s able to make a pair of good signings. But I’d like to see Seattle get faster, deeper at LB.
