    Looking at the 2018 Seahawks offensive line without bias

    To a point. Waiting to pass until they've stopped the run is too late. The more confident a defense is that one or the other isn't a worry, the better you have to be on offense and smaller your margin for error. The key is to keep the ball for more plays and move the chains instead of ending a...

    Why Didn't the Seahawks Trade Down?

    Ok then. I'll just accept that methods matter to you more than winning.

    Why Didn't the Seahawks Trade Down?

    Do you feel the same way about the Patriots and Sony Michel?

    Matt Ryan has agreed to a 5 year extension

    I'm way out of being on top of the CBA situation, but I think the union should make bigger rosters their top priority and use that as the way to up their percentage of revenues. There's a ton of reasons that helps everyone involved.

    2019 Compensatory Draft Picks Update (5/8/2018)

    I don't see it. They signed enough to indicate they were never expecting to get any and it's not like it's surprising other teams didn't want Lacy and Joeckel. It's also too late to add anyone to the formula.

    Now that we know their teams, which QB

    Your bolded part is one of my pet peeves. Completion percentage is not the be-all-end-all expression of accuracy that almost everyone treats it like. That said, you're right about the opportunity issue; QBs without the first-round tools just don't get the same chance to show and develop. It's an...

    Brandon Marshall is in town

    This. I'd say the chances of him being more than a red-zone specialist are slim and we need to stop acting like that is a need. I'm honestly baffled by the widespread desire for a RZ receiving specialist; it's an incredibly overvalued role and often costs way more on the field than it's worth.

    2019 Compensatory Draft Picks Update (5/8/2018)

    I like most of these thoughts. I will say though, that none of the one-year deals of last year was a problem because it was a one-year deal; they were problems because of who they were. And considering 2018 as a sacrifice year would be a reason against some of the signings they made. It would...

    Now that we know their teams, which QB

    I think the starting too soon issue is handled terribly most of the time. Coaches try to "help" a young QB by leaning on a run game and using "safe" throws, but make themselves predictable and make the usually easy throws more risky. Organizations judge too quickly and also misplace blame/credit...

    Now that we know their teams, which QB

    LOL. My feelings on some guys based almost purely on very limited tape viewing goes: Allen Darnold Rosen Jackson Mayfield Buffalo and NYJ are situations I'm not sure about, but could hurt or help their guys. Baltimore and Arizona are probably good for their guys. Cleveland fired the wrong guy...

    5 Tryout players signed- 2 Free Agent Wr's waived.

    It's amazing how little the 7-on-7 system has cut into the development WR's still need once they get to the NFL level. There's just too little real practice time and the rosters are too limited to give that chance to enough guys.

    Now that we know their teams, which QB

    It's all about the team management for all of them. I think as much as it looks like the QB is almost the only piece that matters, there's enough variation in the performance of even the top QB's to show that the whole thing matters and more QB's are at the mercy of their situation than people...

    Seahawks GM: A team tried to trade for Rashaad Penny

    It could make sense when the pick is a surprise. The fact that teams value players differently is only reason any trades happen and the making of a selection might be the only way a team can know how far they needed to go, or that they needed to move. A team might be hoping a guy makes it lower...

    My Final 7 Round Mock Draft Before the Real Thing

    I like Kirk, but actually less for the Hawks than generally; as much as Doug can do work outside, lining up there heavily reduces his value and I think we're in for a pleasant surprise from Jaron Brown and Darboh (and I think there's a chance for another to show up too). Not a fan of Barrett as...

    Which player you love will Schneider pass up?

    Agreed. Why bother posting in this thread if that's what you're saying. I'm waaaay behind on watching enough of anybody, but I do like most of the names mentioned so far. The exception is Scarborough; if there is a player and situation where you judge harshly for underachieving, he is it. Who...

    Smaller board, fewer excuses for players

    I hope when John and Pete talk about taking more guys off their board and making fewer excuses for guys that they still acknowledge the difference between performance and production. It's not always an excuse to consider factors contributing to production or lack thereof, as team, scheme, and...

    QB Geno Smith Visiting Seahawks ( Signs With Chargers)

    Absolutely true that Wilson finishes strong after bad starts sometimes, but quite a few of those have still been losses because of the bad start and what it does to the defense. I'd actually attribute most of the bad starts to the overly concerned about turnovers, under concerned about repeated...
