If this looks funky to anyone...

I'll try and fix it. I taught myself HTML about 9 months ago and this is the biggest project I've ever tried. It ended up being kind of a pain in the ass, so I'll add the defense, special teams, injured and practice squad lists over the weekend.

Seahawk salad!

The Depth Chart looks just fine, John

Although I should point out that with 3 receivers and two running backs, your chart gets flagged for too many men on the field. Do we really need that bald guy in the middle? I think we can all agree that the Quarterback is merely a figurehead in the offense, and totally superfluous. Am I right, or what?

Oh...

Names are linked to relevant content. That will be updated periodically. I will have a printer friendly version available before the season starts. Feel free to use this thread to request any other charts or resources you'd like to see me create/add. I really want Field Gulls to become the site for anything and everything Seahawks related. Thanks.

Man alive, we're thin

Draft well, Mr. Ruskell . . .

Well...

Logan Payne, Steve Vallos and Mansfield Wrotto will be listed as practice squad players. So that's a little depth.

Oh and I'm refusing to acknowledge Porkchop...

unless I have to.

The longer I look at this

the more I'm ok with it. A team can always use depth, but match this offense with a top 10 D in the worst division in football and you should get 10 wins. What you do from there probably won't be a lot different than what we've done in the post season the last 2 years.

I think listing Obomanu is the slot is a little misleading. If the line up 2 wide Engram will be the flanker, but if they go 3 wide Engram will be in the slot and Obomanu would go out wide, right? Or am I missing something?

It's pretty interchangeable

Engram is the closest thing Seattle has to a flanker, so that's where I listed him. But play to play, it's pretty interchangeable. That's true of almost any NFL offense.

Passing game

Based upon this lineup, it makes me nervous. I mean, who's going to be catching passes? Maybe this is Nate's breakout year. Maybe Bobby can somehow maintain his performance. Maybe one of the young guys steps up. But with that WR and TE lineup, we're thin. Really thin.

Branch

What is Deion Branch's status? Injured still?

by nwse on Mar 20, 2008 4:30 PM PDT reply reply 0 recs

Very.

He'll be on the injured list.

Matt Hasselbeck

as never seen before right here on Field Gulls!

by Gray on Mar 20, 2008 6:09 PM PDT reply reply 0 recs

RG:B Albert, TE: M Bennett, WR: E Bennett

I like the looks of that left side oline, alot.

Hass has done well with rag-tags like Urban, Robinson, Bannister, Warrick, Stevens; he'll be fine with this group.

Mansfield Wrotto

You need to add him to our depth. What is the word on him? He is he getting any better as a player?

Hard to say until

he actually plays. We'll see in four months I guess.

I think Wrotto will spend another season...

on the practice squad so that's where I'll put him. He's very talented, but equally rough. He projects as a longterm solution at left guard.

Look at all them honkeys...

We need some diversity on this team!

DAMNIT!

Ha.

You're funny.

Ouch

Yeah, I'm not liking the idea of Burleson at split. It seems like an awfully big risk entering the season with a 36 year old who's just waiting to get injured and 3 completely unproven guys to complement him at WR, especially when we aren't really sure how the running game is going to work out either.
