This isn't a surprise with the Cards signing DA.
SEA/SD are probably arguing which 4th will be dealt: the Hawks natural 4th (darn close to a 3rd) or the 4th received from the Eagles.
Let’s give them Teel and a 5th rounder :P
6/14/40. Sweet.
Let's not. I like Teel.

Still holding out hope we are swapping picks
1.14 for Whitey, 1.28 and SD’s 3rd. Then flip 28 or 40 for a certain WR that is out there. I know it has been mentioned before, but thought I’d bring it up again here.
Would also love it to be a pick next year and keep the high picks we have for the help we need at OT, DT, S, etc.
I like Buddy Christ the most
I was thinking a hunky Dave Grohl
At least we aren't the Raiders?

More info coming out
Whitehurst plans to sign his tender with SD , which will allow SD to initiate trade talks with SEA on his behalf.

6/14/40. Sweet.
Journeyman implies he's bounced from team to team, I think.
Whitehurst has spent his entire career at San Diego.
Actually, journeyman implies no upside
just limited competency. I think Whitehurst certainly has upside, and there’s no way to know about his competency yet.
Sorry about my wording. I'm drinking
Happy Saint Patty’s y’all! Hope you’re wearing your seafoam green jerseys!
He's not a journeyman
and he’s stuck behind perhaps the best #1-#2 QB combination in the league. How many throws would you expect from a QB in that situation?
Whomever performs better in camp/preseason is good with me
I expect that if Hass ends up starting, it will only be until he’s hurt and Charlie will then step in and take over
Especially if Clayton is right...
and we’re really talking “better than backup” money.
Also, O’Neil confirmed PFT’s rumor about Sims being barred from offseason workouts. ugh.
Ugh is right.
Entering free agency, the Seahawks had holes at:
QB of future
LT
RB (to pair with Forsett)
DT (Cole sucks)
Vague need for secondary talent
Since free agency, we can add to that list:
WR (bye Nate)
Starting safety (bye Grant)
Pass-rush DE (bye Tapp)
Guard (if Sims goes)
At this point, it seems like the only positions we have a combination of quality and depth at are TE and LB. Seems like whoever we draft, there’s still gonna be some big holes in the roster Week 1.
This is so disheartening
WTF IS GOING ON!?!?!
He is bringing in his own people
I think there is a plan that will take several years to inact.

Exactly.
It’s going to be a little painful. And even more painful if he doesn’t maximize the return on the parts he’s selling. But trading RFAs for picks is better than losing them in a year or two just because they don’t fit the system. That said, it’s still painful losing Tapp and I don’t think he got close to good value at all.
I actually thought we already had holes at all of those positions.
However, I do believe those holes are getting deeper. I think I can see China through a couple of them…or maybe that’s just molten lava.
Pure speculation
We give 6 and 14 and get Marcus McNeil, Whitehurst, and their 1st round pick? Deal or no deal?
At least we aren't the Raiders?
just curious

Wow.
That trade would be indescribable.

Although the current FO doesn't just get a pass...
it’s worth noting that this Tapp deal may just be the fallout from the unstable desperate situation at QB.

There is a lot of frustration and we thought Allen wanted things to change
then we get some bone head moves

See what he thinks of all these moves.

So...
If our previous two seasons (9-23) seasons are Moria, and the fallen Matt Hasselbeck is Gandalf, will Charlie “Aragorn” Whitehurst lead us out of Moria and into Lothlorien (Superbowl berth)? My Lord of the Rings-based prognosis says yes.
