The muffed punt notwithstanding, I thought Cade Johnson was one of our better wideouts during the preseason; I'd have given him Young's spot on the roster.

I'm guessing Collier only made the initial roster so they can move him to IR tomorrow afternoon. Will be interesting to see what other moves they make before Week 1.

Very happy the kept Young. I think he has some upside with his size/speed combo.

Thought Vi Jones might have a chance. I think they're looking over LB cuts across the league to bring in veteran guys to go with Brooks.

It's a surprising Seahawk year when I'm okay with both offensive and defensive lines.

I hope they use Alton Robinson more than they have in the past. He just seems to pesky in the other's team's backfield to not give him a few more snaps. A nice rotation of Taylor and Nwosu, with Mafe and ARob sprinkled in to keep them all fresh. Minus experience, might be our most talented Edges in a while.

Well THAT was fast!

No real surprises (yet) but we all know this is not the 53 that the Seahawks will have by the time the Denver game rolls around.

Jake Browning was cut by the Bengals. Lacks a great arm, but better backup than Lock? Also Ramiz Ahmed was cut by the Packers, and he didn't miss a kick all preseason or (according to a guy on Reddit) all of camp. Would be cheaper and likely better than Myers. I guess the Jags would have first shot at guys like this though.

Bummed they kept Bellore over Jones or Muse. Bellore is a lot of fun, but he's not a real NFL linebacker. I bet the other guys can stick around on the practice squad though.

Blair cut was the right call. It just sucks to think about what could have been without all the freak injuries.

A few of these position groups would have been pretty shocking a couple of months ago, and even a bit surprising (to me anyway) today. What jumps out at me is that we only kept three ILB but five Safeties. And one ILB isn't really an ILB. They'll probably add to this group shortly, but I can see them playing a lot of three-safety formations to take advantage of their talent in that spot. I'm ready to see Adams playing around the LOS a lot more this year.

I don't know how the IR rules work really, but I assume Collier's spot will be given to someone else without actually loosing team control of his contract.

What a great job for seven of this year's draft picks to make the 53!!! And that's not counting Tyreke Smith.

Whether they're still Seahawks in a couple weeks or not, how cool is it to see M. Adams, Onujiogu, Mike Jackson, John Reid, Josh Jones, and Joey Blount all make the 53. That would have been quite shocking (and alarming) at the beginning of training camp.

Glad they cut Blair and Coleman. Hoping they bring back Vi Jones, Bo Melton, Darwin Thompson.
