While the first two days of the draft went pretty much as expected as far as the Hawks were concerned, day three was nothing short of a whirlwind. Along with their six new drafted players from rounds 4-7, the Hawks also came away with two veteran running backs and a veteran Defensive Tackle on Sunday, [...]
Jimmy Wilkerson, the Defensive End who visited Seattle last week, signed a contract to join the New Orleans Saints, a league source has said. Wilkerson met with the Seahawks last Thursday after having already met with New Orleans a few days prior. I doubt any tears are being shed in the Hawks front office. After [...]
Just some quick news here… Chris Spencer, Ben Obomanu and David Hawthorne have all signed their one-year qualifying offers. Spencer and Obomanu were restricted Free Agents, and Hawthorne was an exclusive rights free agent, meaning that he could only sign with Seattle.
