Tony McDaniel

[Lynch Mob]

i'm excited to see what he can do i think he could be our starting 3-tech in base D.
i like his size 6'7 305lbs and think he can be stout against the run while his length should cause interior lineman problems in passing situations. He needs to stay healthy but i want to see him in action against the packers to see what he brings to the team.

 

[hawk79]

Agree. I'd like to see what this guy brings to the table. Been hearing alot about him.

We need someone other than Mebane to stand out for us at DT. very thin position for us right now.

Is he suppose to be active this Friday, I am excited to see Michael, Irvin and this dude Friday. Seahawks dline lets the running backs get by so Kam can earn his pay check apparently.

Not sure I would expect a lot from him. He has made 30 total tackles in the last two years combined. His recent production or lack thereof along with his slow start this year makes me believe John and Pete are watching the waiver wires very closely for a plan B.

He was back in pads yesterday. It's not clear if he will play Friday but I hope so:

Of Avril and McDaniel, he said: “I didn’t get a chance to see what Tony or Cliff did but anxious to see the film because we have seen so little of those guys. Tony is really important in the competition. We need to see him these next two weeks so he was real anxious about getting back out there and hopefully showing some good things and Cliff it’s just a matter of time before we ger him full speed and we think he can definitely be a factor.”

We signed this guy a few days ago. Hopefully he can play like he looks.

Isn't this the guy that PC keeps referring to as "McFarlane"?

Edit: Yes.

"Tony McDaniel has yet to see the practice field and Pete Carroll quite possibly thinks his name is Tony McFarlane, as he's called him three separate times on the radio."

He's got size/length that the seahawks need on the inside and the reason no one knows about him outside of miami is becuase he played behind two pro-bowl caliber players R. Starks/paul soliai.

I'd rather see Bennett in the 3-tech role. He's proven there and so far has played well. McDaniel may turn out to be a decent backup though. Brooks looks good too. They are signing DT guys so they have healthy bodies in camp. They have plenty of good players at DT (IMO).

He absolutely blew up one of our guards (think McQuistan) in Miami last year

This is an important point. McDaniel has potential, let's hope he can maximize it.

 

[NorthDallas40oz]

McDaniel has been a middling career backup. I wouldn't expect much.

 

[seatownboy]

Career backups at DT in the nfl, means productive depth that defense need up front.

 

[Blitzer88]

Well he better start manning up and playing as Hill is our 3-6 weeks with a torn tricep or bicep muscle.
