If Jessie Williams can get healthy he could be a great rotational piece. Hill's another solid bet to contribute. You're probably right about DT spot.SteveInShelton said:
I'm guessing McDaniel gets more playing time than he did last year. Jordan Hill looked like a decent pass rushing DT before he got hurt and might be able to do what McDonald did. If one of the big DT's falls into the Seahawks lap during the draft they might decide to take him as well, which would be terrifying. I'd imagine they look at a WR or tackle before that though.dnc said:
DT is still a slight concern, but I agree DE has been upgraded for sure.SteveInShelton said:Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 41s
And @Edwerderespn reports Jared Allen has reached agreement with Seahawks.
I'm under the belief that Allen is a significant upgrade over a healthy Clemons. That is pretty huge. Despite losing Red/Clemons/McDonald, if even one of the young guys produce next year the D-line is probably even better than it was last year.
Most importantly, if Allen signed with us, he did it to win a title. He's going to be playing with a pretty sizable chip on his shoulder.
Vikings West!
OL is definitely my biggest concern. Guess they added Stephen Shilling, not sure we want him to see the field though.

Williams is still a huge ??? He has barely practiced and hasn't played a snap.dnc said:

Agreed. That's why I said the position is still a concern. If Williams was guaranteed to contribute I wouldn't be worried about DT at all. Mebane, McDaniel and a healthy Williams with Hill as depth would be a great set of DT's.CuntWaffle said:

I'm with you on DT being a question mark still. I think Hill is the key, he's a better bet to contribute over Jesse Williams. They might go DT in the draft in round 2 or 4.dnc said:
