Some good news in Hawks Land

Holmgren was on KJR this morning (at least that's what I hear through the grapevine and seahawks addicts, since I don't live in Seattle.)  Holmgren mentioned some things that are very encouraging for the Hawks in 2009.

 

1.  Rob Sims is the likely starter at RG.  I know John and most of us have been Sims supporters.

 

2. The Hawks will be going with a running back by committee!  No running back will get more than 25 carries a game and Morris should factor in heavily.  Sounds like Morris will be a hawk next season!  I personally expect Duckett to fill Weaver's role before Strong got hurt last season.

 

3.  sounds like Lawrence Jackson (LoJack) will be the starting DE with Tapp coming in as a situational pass-rusher.  This is probably for the better as Jackson is probably a more complete DE.  Tapp seemed to struggle down the stretch last year and should benefit from this.
