News broke yesterday that former All-Pro guard Jahri Evans agreed to a deal with the Seahawks. Adding a veteran of his pedigree a week into camp set off a series of theories about what it meant and who it may affect. Fans are right to wonder about the move. John...
Off the cuff Eric Pinkins makes his move The SAM linebacker competition has been relatively uneventful thus far in camp. Michael Morgan looks like Michael Morgan. Cassius Marsh has looked more promising in coverage than expected and strong against the run. Then today happened. Eric Pinkins was arguably the...
Seattle drafted Cassius Marsh with the 8th pick of the 4th round of the 2014 NFL draft. He had played defensive tackle and defensive end for UCLA, and varied his weight from 252 lbs to nearly 300 lbs depending on his coaches requests. The Seahawks saw a player who had...
Roster outlook Projecting a 53-man roster at this stage of training camp is far more about framing where the major competition is than attempting to truly prognosticate. The Seahawks have the deepest roster in camp that we have seen in at least a couple of years. The cuts will be excruciating...
Off the cuff The offensive line showed promise Today was the first padded practice, and I finally got to see the new offensive linemen match up 1v1 against the defensive linemen. I watch this drill closely every year, and it always is telling about which linemen on both sides of the...
Ten of the eleven positions on the Seahawks defense are either settled or have more than one proven option as a starter. The one position up for grabs is the SAM linebacker spot vacated by Bruce Irvin. There are at least three guys vying for the position, and that number...

One thing I have learned over the years of attending Seahawks training camp is that you better come with a plan. There are as many as five or six different groups doing different drills at the same time. You cannot possibly watch them all. Once you accept that, it becomes...
It’s the night before training camp, and of course we need to be talking Seahawks. I took 45 minutes to answer people’s questions and posted it here for those of you who could not attend. Will Michael Bennett be there? What if he isn’t? Who are the sleepers? Should we...
Pete Carroll and John Schneider have made a habit of defying NFL standards. Whether it be 6’4″ cornerbacks, or 5’10” quarterbacks, they have proven time and again that they have an eye for finding and utilizing unique talent. The two may have another trick up their sleeves as we enter the...
We are in the final countdown to the 2016 Seahawks training camp. Can you feel it? As someone who has attended dozens of these in the past, I have learned a few tips I wish I had known when I started. One of them was to have a printed roster...
It was a slightly different time…....
