Kenneth, I pulled the trigger and subscribed to an annual subscription. After many months of reading your blog everyday, I enjoy the daily Seahawks coverage and writing. You are a prolific tenacious writer. I admire stellar wordsmiths such as yourself. The cost of an annual subscription is less than 5 bucks a month. Heck, I tip a server much more even at mediocre restaurants/bars just to be nice and supportive of them. Might as well help a small business owner who brings it every single day and who brings great reading value. Well done!
This is just so FUN ....Geno IS THE MAN ,we have Locke on the bench (as Pete said "we have 2 number 1's " Would if we could get McCall in the 3rd 4th round ? look what Isaiah Likely is doing for the Ravens as a 5th round tight end ,don't tell me that there's no talent in that conference . It's crazy how good this is turning out .....Let's ride ...I mean Go Hawks .
Iit seems obvious to me if you can squeeze Travis Homer through the line, you could do that plus plus. Pete brings his rookies along slowly maybe by Tampa in Germany
I think Blythe has really raised his stock. Geno speaks so highly of him as if he's another QB on the field, and, of course, he knows Shane's offense and what he wants to do.
It'll be interesting to see how he matches up with AD when that time comes.
Brooks' stock continues to rise. Does not look like he's plateaued, certainly not gone backwards.
ahh, me too, am a Razorback Rooter which is what razorbacks do so know this 1 word well. Learn a smidgen of X's 'n O's from other's comments but just follow the ball during games. In this site one learns about all kinds of things 'n it's an uplifting one. Your comments are quite insightful 'n well developed. Miine are more just the Rah! Rah! kind. Carry on.
Is Geno even eligible for Comeback Player awards? I thought that was reserved for players returning from injuries. And in any case, in order to "comeback" you have to have been somewhere so that you can return. Geno has never been particularly good and isn't returning to anything, this is all new territory for him.
I gotta say I think the stock on our previous OCs should also go up. Not based on what's happening in Seattle right now, but instead the situation in Denver. I realized recently that we went through 3 different offensive coordinators, but our offense never really changed and we almost never took advantage of the middle of the field. Now suddenly denver doesn't use the middle of the field... Wonder how that happened..
-How dare you suggest we draft another running back; everybody knows they're a wasted pick.
-I'd like to dump Fant and get another Dissly to bolster the run game.
-As Joe has said, WR has emerged as a need.
-What a luxury to go from we must draft a QB with our first pick to maybe a mid-round selection.
-The Bruce Irvin play where he took out Daniel and Barkley with one hit was incredible. I haven't seen that since Steve Emtman in the Rose Bowl. It should be an ESPN highlight staple. What a valuable pick up he's been already.
I would like to see what Cade Johnson could do in place of Eskridge. He reminds me of Steve Largent. Too small , too slow but all he does is get open and catch the ball.
He played six games for the Bears. Between his time with the Hawks and our ex-Bear coaches, they were aware of him. Otherwise, I bet his career is over.
I think both our tackles, K9 and Woolen are locks to the all rookie team. There is maybe one rookie CB better than Woolen, and there are 2 spots.
Geno goes to the pro bowl, unless we make it to the Super Bowl, 5% chance according to Football Outsiders. Speaking of which, DVOA is bullish on Lockett, but he's not having the type of season that brings accolades
There is still time for Dee Eskridge and it sure sounds like his teammates are routing for him. From what I can gather he still hasn't picked up the offense. Tyler Lockett earned his keep and more as a pro bowl returner. Eskridge is returning kicks. If he hangs onto the ball and breaks one or two maybe he buys next year. I hope so as I made it publicly know I wanted the Hawks to draft him.
Pete seems to be a booster and that's all that really matters. I'm skeptical. My concern is I never seem him with any separation on his routes. That's why he isn't getting targets and you can't run after the catch, his speciality, without getting targets. He reminds me of Gary Jennings from the 2019 draft; all kinds of talent and college production but just couldn't wrap his head around the NFL.
Pete is a great cheerleader, and is behind him. He must not be getting open or quick enough. Geno cares as well. In general I must say there isint much ran after the catch for any of our receivers especially DK. There are three guys on him like a flask. Can DK not run a shallow cross and break it. They are doing great so just thinking
I've been disappointed in the lack of designed throws to K9. The Niners live on YAC and CMC is just going to accentuate that quality. I agree, Waldron is doing a great job and being very creative.
Just an FYI, while the cap space is $53 million on paper, it is really only about $31 million, according to Over The Cap. This is because you need to set aside the extra money for IR, Practice squad, and the ridiculous number of draft picks this year. So only $31 with few players under contract.

Hawks can get a good receiver in the later rounds. Eskridge looks like a bust.
Number 1 priority should be an offense wrecking D tackle ala The Tezmanian Devil . That makes the entire D better.
Move Lewis back to the right side where he made the all rookie team and find a good left guard. Draft a young QB for the future.( Mc Call )
and a mobile outside LB.

Thank you I am rooting for the Seaawks haha I ain't done much fancy book learning

Thank you, go Hogs

He should be, after all, Geno was "written off" by loads of writers.
He may well be one of the greatest comeback players after all of the years he was considered washed up.
There has been many a player that wins after having a bad year. In Genos case a bad year was 2016 or earlier.
Geno was drafted by the Jets in 2013, so I'd guess his last really good year was about 2012.
Pay the man.

Lockett deserves everything! He is having a great year. So he made a few mistakes. He redeemed himself like he always does.
Locket might be the number one leader for this team. It's interesting that he's become Doug Baldwin 2.0.
There is still time for Dee Eskridge and it sure sounds like his teammates are routing for him. From what I can gather he still hasn't picked up the offense.

maybe, "rooting" for him. Yeah, many of us would very much like to see Dee Eskridge do well.
Just an FYI, while the cap space is $53 million on paper, it is really only about $31 million, according to Over The Cap. This is because you need to set aside the extra money for IR, Practice squad, and the ridiculous number of draft picks this year. So only $31 with few players under contract.
The number that has stuck in my Head is $15 .I think your onto something. Also I think if Pete got out bid he may go with Drew.
