The Seahawks released LB John Lotulelei

Jags just picked him up - SHOCKER

Yep,

And they cut one of our old LB's to sign another of our LB's

Picking up all the Seahawks scraps hasn't really helped that team. They look worse than last year. Maybe they need to carve out their own identity.

The Jag's released OLB-Kyle Knox to acquire Lotulelei, I wonder if we will see him back here on the PS?

They felt confident starting the season with 2 QB's. Now they don't feel as confident anymore so they went out and got a third QB. They know more about the state of our olinemens health than we do, but this says something to that imo.

TJACK and Russ are both very durable -- I think they picked Daniels up because they like him, not because they fear injury. Best case scenario he develops into your backup (he is cheaper than TJACK) but I think TJACK is one of the best backups in the league and I'm glad to have him.

I like Knox and felt he was decently all around in the pre-season.

Knox and Lotulelei have comparable athleticism and strength. Both have similar builds with Knox being slightly longer.

Where Lotulelei is faster, Knox is more explosive.

Where Loutulelei is the harder hitter, Knox is the better tackler.

I wouldn't mind seeing Knox back at all (on the PS), he would replace the potential we saw in Lotu and it wouldn't take up a roster spot.

I wonder how many former Seahawks would be Jaguars had many of them got past the Chiefs' claims.

I noticed Hawkblogger compared the cutting of Loutlelei to the cutting of Michael Bennett several years ago.

Not even close IMO.

Not sure what the big fuss was about this guy. He looked completely out of his depth in garbage time against the Jaguars. The fact is, he hasn't got close to knocking off the USC backup crew and Benson Mayowa has shown so much more potential as a 'stash for the future' type prospect.

Hawkblogger thought Flynn got jobbed in the QB competition last year.

LOL!

Trade value isn't relevant. I don't expect either of the two nfl trades this year to involve tjack. I do think somebody will bid a decent amount for his services next year, and imagine it will be more than the hawks can afford.
