  • Another key FA nobody is talking about is Michael Bennett who is 28 years old and signed a one year deal. Unlike Clemons he can play the run too.

    I bet they cut Clemons and keep Bennett on like a 3 year deal that's back loaded so they can cut him down the stretch as well.

    I disagree you can keep Tate at 7-8 mill a year.

    You just cut Rice who has a cap number at 9.7 mill, by cutting him you take a 2.4 mill hit so you save 7.3 million.

    Red Bryant makes 8.5 million, if you cut him you save 5.5 million.

    Zach Miller makes 7 million, if you cut him you save 5 million.

    Chris Clemons makes 9.6 million, if you cut him you save 7.5 million

    Brandon Mebane makes 5.7 million and if you cut him you save 5.3 million(only guaranteed 400K)

    Heath Farwell makes 1.6 million, if you cut him you save 1.5 million.

    I'm not saying cut all these guys but you have room to pay Tate and still keep Sherman, Thomas and Wilson around. Also remember probably after 2014 you'll be cutting Lynch which will save you 7.5 million as he is only owed 1.5 million guaranteed.

    Remember guys this is the NFL and to keep good players that means you have to get rid of older more popular players.

    I would get rid of Rice, Bryant, and Miller. Bryant can be replaced, and I would rather re-sign Michael Bennett when his contract is up at the end of the year than keep Bryant. Miller is a good player, but I think we could get a blocking TE for much cheaper. 7 million for a guy who catches 30 passes a year is way too much. Willson looks like he will be a decent receiver, and McCoy is decent although he has had drops. 9.6 million is a lot of money for Clemens. Hopefully, they can restructure that one, but he might need to go as well.

  • I think you can and will keep Tate. He's not your normal run of the mill WR. He has the ability to be an elite play maker which this team was lacking last year. With Tate stepping up and hopefully when Harvin returns their passing game can be explosive which it wasn't last year.

    Tate is also a "football player" as he is a great blocker, does punt returns and has the abilty to turn a short play into a long one, beat his man for a long pass and can make the great catch.

    Baldwin who is a FA and is a nice player you let go. Guys like him are a dime a dozen. Guys like Tate you keep.

    Seahawks current receiving corps is really underrated and has to up there in terms of bang for your buck. Tate has emerged that he can be a reciever as well as a playmaker where before he was simply a playmaker. Baldwin seems to make 1 crazy sideline acrobatic catch a game in a clutch situation as well as being a decent overall reciever.

    Then you have one of those Ty players filling in and making big plays every week for the Seahawks. Pete does a great job in putting him into position for those 1v1 jump balls where he shines in. Can't win with those type of players, especially after 0-12.
  • It's a shame that Sark inherited a dry cupboard with bums like Kearse on his roster.

    Also Pete is using Kearse well. He's always been great at the deep ball with his speed and leaping ability. Just don't ever throw to him on a third down slant.

    I hate saying this about a guy but Rice being hurt actually helped as it allowed Kearse to take those reps.

    Also let's be honest Rice wasn't 100% either. At 100% I wouldn't be saying that but Rice was hurting the team more than he was helping it.

    I never want to root for sCam Newton again. I feel dirty.

    I am a big Cam Newton fan, I think he is going to be the best QB in the NFL in a couple years and will probably win a Super Bowl or 2.

    So funny how SF controlled their own destiny for HFA and are now the 6 seed in the playoffs hahaha.

    Panthers are good, they remind me of our team from last year. Early season struggles finding the identity and are hitting their stride, they will be scary in the playoffs and even have a shot at getting the #2 seed if they can take care of business against the Saints.
    I don't think he will be the best QB in the league, but he is really good. I don't want to play Carolina in the playoffs. They have a very good defense, a decent running game with proven RB's, and Newton is very dangerous.

    Could have to play Carolina or SF in the 2nd round. If Carolina beats NO then NO could be the 2nd round opponent.

    Not sure but I'd prefer Carolina. Their D is very tough but they are a young team with an offense that would really struggle @ Seattle in a playoff game. I think it would be a 17-3 or 20-6 type of game.
  • I can't see Cam Newton winning in Seattle.

    Gotta agree with chest that Hawks would win rather ugly say 17-6?

    I decided not to bump a post. No need to make them mad when they already are.
    Here's a gem I found
    THe funniest part is Carolina had ZERO All-Pro players last season.

    Also, they had ZERO defensive pro-bowlers last year.

    LOL @ SEA fans putting Pathers defense anywhere near our level. It makes them feel better about being a crappy road team to try and prop up the panthers I guess....

    No matter how you spin it....GB >>>>>>> Carolina. Can't beleive we even have to explain this.
