Simon waived / Tukuafu Re-signed

[Glasgow Seahawk]

Just annoyed that we cit Burley initially and kept Simon. Would still like Burley around.

Excellent point, particularly seeing that DB'S brought in from outside don't typically do well here.

Dang, Kasen W was released from the PS

[West TX Hawk]

And so, the Seahawks' world turns...

Very glad to have the big man back. Can't wait to see him pancake a Ram

Seahawks cut the player Richard Sherman predicted would be better than him

Wouldn't be surprised if Kasen bounces back and forth off the practice squad a few times.

As far as Simon, I'm not "going to dance on his grave" but I'm glad I dont have to watch his poor play as a Hawk anymore.
Long overdue.

The Tuk and Thomas Express, When you get hit by a truck and a train hits you afterwards, that's what defenses are going to be feeling. Good signing!

 

[dogorama]

Tukuafu is a response to wanting to get more out of the run game.

The dude has come and went so many times that I can actually pronounce his name now.

I bet pretty much everyone celebrating in this thread would have reacted the same way had Seattle cut Justin Britt before training camp.

I see no reason to celebrate the fact that the coaching staff was unable to tap into his considerable talent. But whatever, people around here need that whipping boy, it seems. Wonder who's up next? I'm guessing Procise or Ifedi (if his ankle injury lingers)

I don't think Simon will be unemployed long. And I do think there's a decent chance he figures it out somewhere else.

He may have needed the Christine Michael treatment.
He was a hothead, always injured and lucky to be around as long as he was.
A very few minority of Hawks fans are gonna be sad with the news.

 

[Largent80]

He feels like he doesn't belong again.

He feels like he doesn't belong again.

He was playing for a historically run-first team who threw 42 times..
Frustration while getting denied a chance to prove yourself isn't terrible. He wants to put work in 8)

Let's make sure we shit on the guy on his way out of town. That seems to important around here.

Yeah..What's with that?
The guy has been around here for quite awhile, though he never seemed to live up to the hype, he at least tried to get there.
Kind of bothersome that some folks here be giving him shit...Oh well... good luck Tharold.

 

[Mick063]

One way to solve the penalty epidemic is to start losing the guys that make them all of the time.

 

[Cyrus12]

Wish they would have dumped Simon a lot earlier so we could have shopped around for a replacement before the beginning of the season...so much for being better than Sherman...

 

[scutterhawk]

Simon got destroyed in XLIX and was never the same again.

Glad to see Truckafoo back.

Or as Mr. 'T' would say -> "Truck-a-Fool" :rumble: LOL.

You think you're annoyed, imagine how Burley must feel sitting on Cleveland's bench.

OASN - I wonder if the front office thought they could waive Burley injured and get him back? If so, Cleveland spoiled those plans and claimed him.

This aligns well with the crowd who want to skewer a player because they get injured. I don't know if these people just never do anything that could injure themselves or they are so unhappy that they have no empathy for anyone? :141847_bnono:

 

[northseahawk]

I wish Simon would have been cut long before. Maybe he wouldnt have almost single handedly lost the superbowl for us.

 

[AgentDib]

We should be shitting on Pete and John too, after letting Burley walk and keeping him.

Right on, if there's one thing this FO is incompetent at it is fielding a secondary.

 

[Optimus25]

Goes to show theres a lot of time to be wasted here if you're not careful.

Guys were endlessly trying to convince me and others Simon was the second coming all off season.
