Josh Ross Claimed Off Waivers

[AROS]

I'm getting the distinct impression Mike wasn't pleased with the LBs so far this year.

Seahawks Claim LB Josh Ross Off Waivers; Place T Stone Forsythe On Injured Reserve

 

[MyrtleHawk]

LOVE this for more than one reason:

• Coach MM knows exactly what kind of player he's getting with Ross, as Ross has played 3 seasons under his coaching.
• Forsythe takes a seat and we possibly continue to see what we have in Jerrell at RT as he continues to grow with each snap.
• More ILB help with confusion and misdirecting plays on defense.

Thank gawd no more stone feet Foresythe for a while.

With Lucas and Fant supposedly ready to resume practicing, I am hoping we have seen the last of Forsythe

Dammit. I'm not having a smart day. In addition to apparently not being able to read anymore, I got stranded for over half an hour earlier. Turns out that engine coolant is far less effective when you pour it into the wrong tank. I'm going to blame it on fatigue.

Anyway, back to the linebackers. A number of us raised concern in the offseason about our lack of LB talent and were usually told that it didn't matter because Mac would just coach them up. Looks like even good coaches need good players. One such example is Dan Quinn, whose job with the Commanders has been made easier at least partially because a certain middle linebacker they signed in the offseason has been killing it. I wish we had someone like that in the center of our defense.

Definitely something I would have blamed on my wife.

Don't feel too bad. I read John Ross too.

Another Michigan Man, love this pickup!

I'm in the read John Ross club too. Immediately.

Dang, sorry about the rough day. Keep your head up and beware of haters.

It's reasonable to conclude that Mcdonald seeking out a sort of mental makeup or competitiveness. There's not much physical upside to Ross, similar to Michael Barrett (who was cut from the PS in September).

I heard "Josh Ross" ran a 4.3

I hope the letting go of Bobby and Brooks were the decision by Macdonald and Schneider. Not Schneider deciding that alone.

Bobby went to Rams before he went to Commanders

Bobby went to Rams before he went to Commanders

Bobby came back here after his Rams stint and we didn't resign him, thus him going to Washington.

 

[SonicHawk]

Always like players from the coach's previous tenure that were hidden away like this. This is the kind of depth piece we need (also need the top layer too though)

You are right… but he’s too old to be a future piece for the Seahawks

Oh absolutely.
