Hard to believe I am saying this… Seattle’s biggest needs are at WR, OLB, DE. Amazing. Let’s find the next Rice.
I for one am stoked that college season has finally arrived. I’m looking forward to content Rob, now that i have half a clue what you guys are writing about this year.
Michael (CLT)- I’d agree with the above, but would add TE as well. I’m not confident in Miller with his injury woes, and Winslow’s age. But I agree about WR, in whatever way you decree a game changing WR, from speed, to height/toughness, to TD’s, to productivity Seattle desperately needs one. And we need Jarvis Jones, to put up a few less sacks, and perhaps have a bit of a hard time at the combine so we can get Rob’s early entry last year for best defensive player in the draft.
Assuming RW or Flynn takes off this year…
I say we get super aggressive with getting upper echelon weapons. Target a #1 WR and find a really athletic TE. It would be awesome to see Keenan Allen or Hunter paired up with Sidney Rice (who is still really young).
I have my hopes that we target ASJ in 2014 when he comes out. Pipe dream…but would be awesome.
The eye on talent from now on has to always go-along with the phrase, “Do right by Russell Wilson”.
Meaning, find players that fit with his skill-set.
