If the Seahawks are looking for speed and a better pass rush, they could easily line Montgomery opposite Clemons and use a more orthodox 3-4 look with the three big bodies in the middle, while keeping the front four on passing downs.

Rob Stanton talks about Pete's desire to bring "speed" and pass-rush to the front 7 in his most recent mock draft.

There was some OT discussion in another thread about where to find pass rush (and the existential question of what kind of defense this is or will be) and I think this might be a better place to continue it.

h/t to B.B.Finnegan for mentioning Rob's most recent mock draft

and here’s a link to Pete’s ~50 minute end of the season press conference where he talks about wanting more speed in the front 7:

Doesn't look like there's much hitting the free agent market

Just Robert Mathis, who’s starting to hit his declining years, so no.

Pete did talk about being excited about Dexter Davis a few times, but who knows.

Mario Williams will be a FA and the Texans have some cap issues

but I think they’ll try to keep him.

Williams seems like the kind of dude that the Eagles go after.

Fans are typically idiots.

Yeah, if he leaves the Texans

I think he’d go for a big-named East-coast team.

We should have enough cap room this upcoming season

to sign Brees and Williams to front loaded contracts. Probably wont happen but its possible. Thanks Lofa and Trufaunt!

Sam Montgomery DE of LSU huh.

Staton must have really liked that guy, is he declaring though?

Don't be an idiot. If an idiot would do that, then don't do it. Muahahahaaha back on twitter

We are signing Drew Brees, Peyton Manning

Matt Flynn and Mario Williams and all for under a million dollars a year because they want to hang out with Red Bryant and Marshawn which is why we have to re-sign them

Watching the Seahawks is like peeing on yourself, everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling it brings
