Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Assessing Need: Tight End

Tight End

Starter: John Carlson

Age: Turns 26 May 12.

Health: Sterling.

Contract: Two years remaining.

Performance: Awesome.

Starter: Chris Baker

Age: Turns 31 November 18.

Health: Excellent.

Contract: Two years remaining.

Performance: Good.

Depth: Cameron Morrah

Age: Turned 23 March 18.

Health: Incomplete.

Contract: Three years remaining.

Performance: Incomplete.

Depth: John Owens

Age: Turned 30 January 10.

Health: Good.

Contract: Will not finish it.

Etc.

Position need: And holy crap! We have a position mostly filled! Carlson is a sub-elite tight end that is hopefully freed from blocking so dang much. Baker is much like Owens, but able to receive some. Morrah gives Seattle a little depth behind Carlson, and Owens behind Baker - though it seems unlikely Owens sticks with the team. If Seattle is committed to two-tight end sets, it could add another player to back up Baker, but there is no need to speak of.

Owens was a perfectly good player.

We should have at least gotten a 3rd round pick for him! What is this front office doing? WTF? :P

Early prospect watch: RB C.J. Spiller, QB Sam Bradford, OT Ciron Black*, DT Gerald McCoy, S Eric Berry, DT Ndamukong Suh, CB Ras-I Dowling**, RB Jonathan Dwyer
