Hello All! As I have not been out to camp yet, I want to refer you over to FieldGulls.com where Danny Kelly and friends are keeping you up to speed on all things camp related. I’ll be able to make a few notes next week when I get out there, but for some nice in-depth [...]
The Seahawks have signed veteran defensive end, Jimmy Wilkerson, who spend 2010 with New Orleans after several seasons in Tampa. Wilkerson, 30, is 6’2, 270lbs and will presumably compete for time with Chris Clemons at the LEO (weakside DE) position and could come off the strong side, opposite Clemons on passing downs. There was talk [...]
The Seahawks have agreed to a deal with defensive tackle Ryan Sims, a former first round pick of the Kansas City Chiefs (2002) who most recently played for Tampa Bay. Sims will be competing with Junior Siavii (recently re-signed), Kentwan Balmer and Jay Alford, among a few others, for a depth position along the interior [...]
Adam Schefter is reporting that linebacker Lofa Tatupu has asked the Seahawks for his release, after the team requested that he restructure his contract in the form of taking a paycut. Tatupu started all 16 games for Seattle at middle linebacker in 2010 but played in only 5 games the previous year due to injury. [...]
Bet you never thought you’d hear that (see title)… As the free agency period begins to wind down (or wind up) and rosters begin to take shape, the Seahawks’ acquisition of Tarvaris Jackson is looking smarter and smarter. Glancing around the NFC West, Seattle appears to be the only team who’s assumed starting QB enters [...]

The signing, along with the acquisition of Alan Branch last night, solidifies much-needed depth up front and should be viewed as an [...]
Adam Schefter has tweeted that Seattle signed former Arizona Cardinals defensive tackle Alan Branch to a 2 year, $8 million contract with $4 million guaranteed. This may be an indication that talks with Brandon Mebane aren’t going well, or it may simply be a team with a lot of cap room wanting to add depth [...]
Jay Glazer was the first to report that the Seahawks and free agent wide receiver Sidney Rice agreed in principle to a 5 year, $41 Million deal that includes $18.5 million in guarantees and another $3 million in pro bowl escalators ($44 million potential). The addition of Rice to the roster gives Seattle a potential [...]
The Seahawks have agreed to terms with former Oakland guard Robert Gallery. Seattle had been mentioned as a natural destination for Gallery after former Raiders head coach Tom Cable accepted the role of Offensive Line Coach/Assistant Head Coach with the team. The addition of Gallery gives Seattle a much needed veteran presence along the front [...]
I don’t have a ton to say about the departure of Matt Hasselbeck from Seattle, other than farewell to the best QB who ever put on a Seahawks uniform. More than that, goodbye to one of the best people to ever put on a Seahawks uniform. The last few years haven’t yielded the greatest in [...]
