Lofa Tatupu was one of the most dynamic, impactful, additions in Seahawks franchise history. Middle linebacker had largely been a revolving door before he arrived. The likes of Randall Godfrey, Orlando Huff, and Levon Kirkland had taken turns manning the central role in a 4-3 defense. Tatupu’s entrance, much like...
Having been to training camp a few times, I can tell you they do not hand out rosters, and you will spend the WHOLE time asking yourself, “Who is number such and such?” Do yourself a favor and print out a few copies of this roster. Hand out extras to...
Fans were finally reunited with players this weekend when the public got its first chance to witness Seahawks training camp at the VMAC in Renton. Change is a constant with this team, and today was no different as defensive leader and former Pro Bowler Lofa Tatupu was granted his release....

It’s been a crazy week of roster changes and controversy in the NFL, and Seattle has been among the most intriguing. Scott Enyeart, who has coached High School and Division I football, and has ties to the Pete Carroll coaching staff joins me for a 60+ minute conversation about what transpired and...
I put together a little roster guide for the uninitiated who are attending training camp this year. Players names, numbers, height, weight and notes I wrote about many of them. If you are a casual fan, or are bringing one along with you, print this out and bring it along...
Number 36 is out on the Seahawks practice field, and there’s a hard-hitting strong safety there as well. Neither player, however, is Lawyer Milloy. His absence is confusing to some, expected by others. When I ran an informal Twitter poll a few days ago about whether fans would prefer to...
Pete Carroll made it very clear that his top two priorities heading into this off-season were the offensive and defensive lines. When I rolled over in bed last night, and saw on my phone that the Seahawks had added 6’6″ 338 lbs DT/DE Alan Branch to the roster, I smiled...
News broke today that the Seahawks have re-signed linebacker LeRoy Hill to a short-term deal. Hill, you likely recall, was the less heralded part of the linebacker talent infusion from the first Tim Ruskell draft (Lofa Tatupu being the other). Hill had a fantastic rookie campaign, demonstrating a knack for...
Chris Sullivan (30AcreFortress Blogger), Scott Enyeart (college football writer and Pete Carroll whisperer) and I got together for conversation tonight. I will post the results of that discussion in another post. One juicy tidbit that emerged was the possibility of Vince Young coming to Seattle. The three of us don’t always...
The next time you see Matt Hasselbeck in Seattle, it will either be for an opposing team or for his induction into the Ring Of Honor. He is the best Seahawk in history. Walter Jones may have been the best player, but nobody approached Hasselbeck’s contributions to building a winner...
