Nobody up here even cares about y’all. We’re thinking about Denver and New England.

How can anyone say the Hawks are building thru free agency when we’re still a month away from the draft. We’ve seen Schneider sign free agents & cut them before they ever saw the field. With about 7 picks (not certain) coming, albeit mostly late rounders, this whole team is built on late round & undrafted players. With the exception of Harvin every fa signing has been very short contacts that didn’t come close to breaking the bank. Its far too soon to say what kind of offseason the Hawks will have but its starting out to be a good one. Go Zags!!!

They are just scared that the Seahawks are gonna dominate the next 10 plus years in their division. Squid word, I mean kaepernick won’t last long he is a one year wonder and the hawks are gonna make him look stupid just like they did last year in Seattle. Go hawks

The world of the NFL has changed. Draft Contracts are a fraction of what they used to be. ALL Teams are using Free Agency because of these high price contracts; high quality players are being released at the back ends. This is the new way. It is nonsense to believe that Teams with Cap won’t spend it. I think the Seahawks did a great job of rebuilding and will field a strong product for many years. Heck, I am looking forward to actually watching West Coast (4:00pm) Games. The Seattle vs. SanFran or AFC Denver will be epic!

Back to Tobis81 ‘s stupidity…. the Dolphins are even younger than the Seahawks. They built throught FA? Are you kidding? We “bought” M. Wallace with an overpriced Contract, just like Harvin’s (using the same piece of the puzzle comment you made)and Bowe. Timing is everything. They got lucky. Are they worth it, No, but a team like the Dolphins needed a solid upgrade at WR just like your Hawks. With tons of cash they got the #1 Free Agent. Any team would have doen the same if they could. The Dolphins LB “spree” saved us money and we got younger and better. Do some reading on the Dolphins or any other team for that matter. Stop being a parrot drone and repeating other’s idiotic comments and you will discover the Dolphins STILL have over $18M left to spend with another $11M coming June 1st. Next year we are UNDER the Cap by $30M! I know you hate your rival 49ers, but you sound silly spewing off about the Dolphins, Redskins and Eagles. Did you read that somewhere or make that up? BTW- The Skins and Dolphins are pretty good these days. Hmmm… I can even rember the Dolphins actually beating the Seahawks this year. Show some knowledge and respect and you might actually get some!

If Hunter was a monster why did they draft that HB from Oregon and try pick up the twinkle toes Jacobs. Culliver’s tape and character problems speak for themselves. What’s the 2012 draft haul…..BUSTS!

Pick up another team injury outcasts and teaching them new schemes is going to hurt. Branch can’t be asking for too much.

Maybe more like a depth upgrade over McDonald.

Forget delusional these 49er fans are just so funny.

I notice you didn’t mention last years. It’s clear you have very little knowledge about our team. About 75% of our roster has been built via the draft, waiver wire etc. we don’t go out, and spend $14 million a pop on free agents like the Cowboys, Dolphins, Eagles, Skins. The so called Dream Teams. We traded for Harvin because he is a piece to the puzzle. An element we have been lacking. We signed two top tier DE’s for cheap to help bolster our pass rush being as our top DE won’t be back to start the season. If you have no clue what your talking about you really shouldn’t take the time to hangout on the Seahawks BR page talking rubbish. Get some facts, stop trying to always make your team look good by leaving out the areas you have tanked on like Jenkins while only talking about what has gone well for you. Your the only delusional fan I see in here. Good luck hanging onto that half game division win in 2013.

Slippery slope? We’ve added two defenisve linemen and a a wide receiver. That appears to me to be pretty reasonable offseason turnover. You have a weakness, address it. You have free agents leave, replace them. Schneider and Carrol have managed this roster extremely well and there is no indication that we should think this will change going forward. They turned the roster over like no other team in their first two years and seems like team chemistry worked out just fine.

#GoHawks

Funny how you leave out Baalke’s 2012 “draft haul”. A.J. Jenkins for most worthless 1st round pick of the year anyone?

Good Players drafted under John Schneider and Pete Carrol:
Earl Thomas
Russel Okung
Bruce Irvin
Bobby Wagner
Richard Sherman
Kam Chancellor
Robert Turbin (decent in relief of Lynch)
Russell Wilson
Golden Tate
Walter Thurmond (injured frequently but has near elite talent when healthy)
Undrafted Free Agents –
Doug Baldwin
Brandon Browner picked up from CFL
Trades or Notable FA additions
Marshawn Lynch, Chris Clemons, Sidney Rice, Zach Miller, Cliff Avril, Michael Bennet, Percy Harvin.

Seahawks have no issue finding talent.
Seahawks are among the top two youngest teams by Players age per snap count 25.8 where San Francisco is middle of the league at over 27.

Accentuating almost exclusively this year through Free Angency, which as we all know (Dream Team for instance) is a very, very slippery slope.

I loved seeing the delusional ‘Hawk fans spouting off on here about how the Niners were getting too old! Division rival San Francisco has 6 draft picks to Seattle’s 2 in the first 4 rounds. That’s a sizeable advantage if Baalke can hit on at least 3 of those picks. Which I know he can (2011 Niner draft haul: Aldon Smith, Colin Kaepernick, Chris Culliver, Kendall Hunter and Bruce Miller!)
