I don't understand the signing of old guys like Diggs and Woods during a rebuild,
Because we're not in a rebuild.
Pete says that but I don't know if the reality matches the reality of the situation at hand. There seems to be a big mismatch or perhaps a refusal to believe what's going on.
We're not just going to be able to just plug in a random smuck and expect to compete. I think the cupboards are really bare in a lot of places on this roster. In addition to this we are switching to a 3-4 front while not really having the staff needed.
I don't know how we can phrase this as anything other than a rebuild. We keep loading up on older players as well which is a very curious decision by the FO. The defense is not going to be able to carry the Seahawks. The Broncos had a top 3 defense yet was still a losing team.
It feels like we're approaching the Seahawks roster like we did when we had Wilson in many respects which is curious. It feels like there is a huge disconnect. It just feels like we're trying to prop up an aging mediocre roster that is filled with holes. In order to fill a lot of those holes they need to hit the draft out of the park, which given their recent history, is on shaky ground.
Above all else this approach feels almost non-committal. I know that they realize that they need a QB and there is a gaping hole there -- but there is also the attitude that it doesn't matter. I'm not sure what the hell they're going for.
