According to Carroll, Sullivan has been coming along so well at DE that he is close to being ready to actually play on game days.

This is nuts. He must be showing some really special stuff to be even remotely close.

Even if Mayowa is out, they easily have enough guys to craft a rotation that doesn't include Sullivan.

If he gets elevated and gets snaps, it means he's actually looking good enough to be beating other guys out...

Was thinking more, Green isn't ready, Mayowa is more hurt then we know Robinson is still learning the ropes, Moore isn't anything special, we have Leo's but not rushers.

I took it more as desperate for bodies that can actaully get after the QB.

He also made it sound like Alton Robinson would be the DROY frontrunner by now.

We need a feel.good story, let's hope Sullivan makes us feel good about our defense.

Weird for Pete to sound optimistic and positive about a player or situation (only to find out a week later that it wasn't as great as it sounded....)

Is he not? He's been a force.
Only player that will compete with him is Brooks and D Taylor :sarcasm_off:

But in all seriousness, this is crazy. Imagine if the kid shows something out there and gets a sack. That would be the most typical Pete Carroll led Seahawk story since George Fant

Count me all in on Robinson, but same for Sullivan. I love this kid. After all he's been through just to get a chance to make the roster is a major accomplishment. But to see how effective he was in such a miniscule amount of time training at that position is flabbergasting. If he can do what he did in that amount of time I gotta think he has what it takes to stick and I am all for that.
