    Geno Smith runs 21.67 mph during practice.

    That's remarkable. He's definitely putting in the work this offseason. Here are the numbers for the team so far. I've not seen this type of stuff posted on the wall before (maybe I missed it?), but I love the emphasis/accountability on speed training...

    Nwosu speaks out. Eyebrow raising read.

    In any event, I tend to agree with Nwosu. The team now has the right coaches. I can’t wait to see the new look on defense.

    Draft day fun

    It depends on how far somebody wants to come up. I agree, it feels like a lot of these first round trade downs result in thirds in general and not the assumed seconds. I think I’d just prefer to take a stud at #16 instead of the basket-of-players approach.

    Got what we wished for -

    This is going to be the most exciting training camp/preseason in a long time. Both sides of the ball are going to be fun to watch.

    Did trading for Howell close the door on a 1st round QB?

    For sure. I've been wanting to draft a QB (in any early round really) for years. This team has been negligent in that regard. I think that's one of the differences you're going to see going forward. JS is going to start using draft capital (already has) on QBs.

    Did trading for Howell close the door on a 1st round QB?

    To your point, Nix could very well turn out to be the best of the bunch. But there's a good chance that he and Penix slip into the second, then get quickly picked up the next day (like Levis). At the same time, Minnesota and Denver are starved for a young QB to sell to their fanbases, so...

    Did trading for Howell close the door on a 1st round QB?

    Nix has a FAR better chance of falling out of the first round entirely than going that high.

    Did trading for Howell close the door on a 1st round QB?

    I think that JS is going to be much more aggressive drafting QBs. It's very possible that McCarthy/Penix/Nix are there at #16. QB's tend to be equal parts of being over-drafted, then free-falling. He'll have a decision to make depending on what OL are there and/or he gets an offer to move down...

    Houston to win Superbowl

    It'd be cool to see. I have not an ounce of ill will against that franchise. That fanbase never won a SB, had their team stolen from them years ago (and that cool uniform), and hasn't had much sustained success since they got a team back.

    JS what you think of him?

    I think the one-year free agent strategy provides flexibility and capital. You either re-sign the player if they work out, receive a comp pick because they worked out and you didn't want to pay, or you cut bait.

    JS what you think of him?

    I feel like this is Year #1 of JS. All previous years were JS-PC. He now has the conventional GM role for the first time and hired a coach that he's obviously very excited about. His moves so far appear to reflect a GM "medium/long-term lens" vs. a coach "I need to win this year" lens. I'm...

    Off Season Winners and Seahawks

    I don't see where it's that far off or a sleight of Seattle's offseason. There are 14 teams on the positive side of that ledger, meaning there are 18 on the other side that he's thinking got worse. For us, this offseason is about repairing the damaged salary cap and signing some players to fill...

    Geno Smith is really "something"

    Ha, probably the best use of this gif ever…exactly how I felt.

    HC Mike MacDonald on QB Competition

    It's as if everybody just ignores the second half of that tweet. "Sam is a great young player, and he’s got a really bright future that we believe in." A really bright future as a backup? Yes, Geno is the designated starter going into training camp and further into Week #1. Doesn't mean that's...

    Seahawks eligible comp picks (so far)

    I think the talent also started drying up after a long series of poor drafts so we weren’t losing enough players for meaningful compensation.

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    And nearly 4000 yards and 21 touchdowns in his first year in that offense.

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    But Howell only gets 18 games before his career ceiling is determined because The Atlantic said so?

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    That’s a higher ceiling than most of these first rounders will merit after their first 18 games.

    This is going to be the most exciting training camp in a LONG time.

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    He's played for ONE year. He learned a new offense that year to boot (Eric Bieniemy hired in Feb 2023). Trevor Lawrence was the consensus #1 overall QB three years ago, and he went for 3641 (12 tds/17 ints) in his rookie year, and 4016 (21 tds/14 ints) last year. Most (if not all) of these...
