But asked by a fan at training camp on Friday how many times he'll get into the end zone in 2012, Washington raised four fingers up, which means he's looking to create more explosive plays this season. "One thing we looked at when it came to the return part of the game, especially when it came to kick returns, is we only had about five less returns than the previous year," said Washington, who turns 30 years old this month. "So the opportunities are still there for us to go out there and make plays."

"It’s definitely a new stage that we’re moving into," said Flynn after today’s practice. "After today we’re past the install stage. We have our whole offense in, so now we start getting to where we get to go back over things. We get to move the field, kind of mock-game situations, and then we’re going to get into our game plan."

Putting a Stop to the Edwards vs. Bryant Debate - 12th Man Rising - A Seattle Seahawks Fan Site
Over the last couple of days the Seattle Seahawks have searched the scrap heap for receiving help and come up with formerly productive receivers Antonio Bryant and Braylon Edwards.
Early Evaluation Of Braylon Edwards - 12th Man Rising - A Seattle Seahawks Fan Site
I was especially happy to see how well he was able to beat press coverage. On one play lined up against Brandon Browner, he got a mostly clean release on a slant pattern, caught the ball, and was off to the races. Very few WRs can beat Browner on the slant pattern. He was practically born to cover that route.

"I think he's had a great (training camp). It's been kind of quiet because we don't do a whole lot with the three's, but he's really taken his game to another level from our offseason program and OTAs."

Interior defensive linemen get caught up in the anonymity of the trenches and they don't even have the profile of offensive left tackles protecting their quarterback's blind side. The NFL still recognizes the deep value of an elite defensive tackle, and it has shown in recent drafts that saw Marcell Dareus, Ndamukong Suh, and Gerald McCoy all go in the top three.
