    Hawks are addressing the inside D...

    Al Woods played NT for us...but now that he's a Jet he has chipped about not liking the NT "role". Jarran played NT in college for Alabama so he's not likely to "sqawk' about playing there. He may not have Al's size but is quite stout and plays with a lot of "grit" which is Pete's buzzword for...

    Hawks are addressing the inside D...

    Jarran Reed mostly played 3T/5T for us before (with Poona Ford as NT) but he did play NT quite well in college for Alabama. Similar to Derick Hall in the respect of being "first round" talent that slipped into the 2nd round where we "snagged" him.

    OFFICIAL GAMEDAY COUNTDOWN!

    Just because Frank Clark bolted to the Chiefs when his "market" kept John from keeping him around...he wore #55 quite well while we had him.

    Hawks are addressing the inside D...

    Derick Hall is a speed to power high motor Edge with great athleticism (excellent RAS skill ratings). The only "knock" I had heard of is lacking some pass rush "counters" to excel at the NFL level...that's why we hired BT Jordan who had an excellent private "school" prior to our team's...

    Hawks are addressing the inside D...

    With Jarran Reed at NT it allows Cameron Young to ease into rotating in. It does allow Mario Edwards some more playing time at 5T with Mike Morris rotating in to 3T/5T since Dre'Mont will be a 3 down DT. The Edge/OLB pass rush is set to mix youth with more youth...Uchenna and DT with Darick Hall...

    Dre'mont Jones is just the guy!

    All of Seattle's moves seem geared to closing the gap with our renewed rival the 49ers. The 49er offense has many moving "parts"...now we do too. Those many moving parts are tough on any defense...adding CMC made it more so...our response? Go after the linchpin (49er QB) We even hired a...

    Witherspoon Hasn’t signed yet.

    Ha Ha...pre season "PUP" lists usually reflect management decisions...players already "proven" at the NFL level can be afforded precautionary protection against "freak" pre-season injury risk.

    Geno Smith says no to Netflix Quarterback

    Ha Ha ...a "slice and dice" response. Perhaps the show is less about what makes "Mahomes tick" and more on the complexity of playing the position at a high level.

    Geno Smith says no to Netflix Quarterback

    I haven't seen the show but it seems like the focus is on the QB "position" not necessarily reflecting the individuals playing it...so different players would provide the fuller range of what the position involves.

    Geno Smith says no to Netflix Quarterback

    Nice response. Geno no doubt has his own reasons for not participating...

    Witherspoon Hasn’t signed yet.

    Nice response. Measurables (size and speed) often "pale" to what scouts see "in game" or while studying film/tape. His film and playing tape screamed about his ability to having skills that should translate to NFL ability to be "coached up" to be his best. Many fans think "combine" results are...

    Whenever a contract "mystery" is involved...its usually the "business" end where most fans lack insight of that end of the NFL. John normally drives a hard bargain...protecting the financial interests of our team. If a player has agent (s) involved...then its more likely our GM "working" with...

    Tariq Woolen Is Now Riq Woolen

    Ha Ha ...I think Riq has a good sense of humor and an excellent WR (DK) in practice to "sharpen" his skills going forward. I like the idea of Riq "roaming" the right side of the field and Spoon "Hammer" playing the left half (eventually) covering whoever lines up at flanker or slot...with M-Jack...

    Trade for Chris Jones with Tyler Lockett?

    We already spent our "serious" money landing the "other" Jones ...Dre'Mont should make rewarding impact as it is.

    Trade for Chris Jones with Tyler Lockett?

    Tyler is in the waning part of his career and has suffered serious injury as well...I suspect both of these to be why he isn't "squeezing" for every yard after a catch. Early in his career he was quite daring in spite of a slender build...as a WR as well as a Pro Bowler return specialist. I bear...

    Most hated Seahawk

    For frustration (I "hate" players from other teams...Kittle comes to mind) I was a bit chuffed early in Luke Willson's career when he had speed and ability to break open...only to drop a few crucial catches. He got better of course but early on I felt his "hands" were suspect.

    Trade for Chris Jones with Tyler Lockett?

    Not seeing Tyler as "expendable" for "trade bait".

    Post Russell Wilson era

    I admit I was a "staunch" supporter of RW before everything came out...I referenced comments from him that I cited as "clear" indicators he was "staying". With RW gone I "championed" Drew Lock when I felt John Schneider "wanted him" in our trade...lotsa "crow" to eat as I'm now fully onboard...

    Tariq Woolen Is Now Riq Woolen

    Not surprised...thought I saw him sporting a "RIQ" necklace during interviews last year.

    Why '23 will be better than '22: Front 7

    Perhaps Pete identified Jarran Reed at NT to ease the use of Cameron Young there as a rookie. Releasing Jonah Tavai also may have been the result of having Reed as Young's tandem partner. Listening to some rookies on defense interviewed about "12's roar/enthusiasm" there might be some credence...
