We get Housh who was sixth in the league in receptions and is a number one wide receiver. We lose bobby engram and replace him with house i would say thats a bit of a plus... We lost J pete and replace him with a 6'3" 252 with great instinct beast and oh he is only 22. Julian Peterson i loved but i would rather have a player like curry then a player who is 30 years all and u know what everyone say once you hit 30 in the nfl. We didnt just lose pete we picked a very solid DT that is 27 who will be paired with mebane who is a thick 314 on the line. We also added Ken Lucas and i loved in Seattle, he was tall 6 foot and strong. wilson and jennings r dime and nickel corners any ways to guard the faster smaller wide receivers in the nfl. We have a very good draft i like the unger pick we were gonna pick in with the 2nd round pick we had anyways and make the stretch pick. but now we traded back into the 2nd round for a 3rd and a 4th. so in the end we trade a 3rd and a 4th for a 1 round pick next year. and by the way denver is a team that shouldnt be any good and we could get a top 10 pick. We could end up with a player like taylor mays or eric berry both safety and we do need to upgrade that position soon. or we could get a LT or a QB cuz according to this guy hasselbeck is all washed up and sucks. and Wlater Jones is supposly all washed too even though hes a pro bowl machine and a beast at LT how could u say we didn’t upgrade from last year?

I couldn't have said it any better myself. You should consider writing a response to the Seattle Times. Just a thought. Excellent comment. I couldn’t have said it any better myself.

When you have a carousel of receivers, the quarterbacks can't get any chemistry with them. With the offensive line keep shuffling, they don't get the experience to keep working together. We were down to our 5th string left tackle in the final game. I'd like to see *any* team win when that happens. Defensively our scheme was changed to be awful. Also, part of the success of the scheme was getting a pass rush, which didn't exist. Our play calling was predictable and QB's had ALL DAY to pick apart our defense. If you look at the Cowboy's game last season, with no pressure they put up great numbers, when we got it it went down drastically. This year we have a new head coach that brings a ton of energy to the field, we'll be getting a new but similar offense with the zone blocking scheme, a scheme that allows for lesser runners to put up good numbers. Reuben Droughns ran for 1200 yards in Denver in the zone blocking scheme. A solid and balanced rushing attack will help Matt. And defensively, we've gotten a new scheme custom built from some of the youngest and brightest minds in football. We have Gus Bradley, Lane Kiffin's right hand man, we have Tim Lewis, who coordinated 4 top 10 defenses for the Steelers and coached a solid secondary in Carolina. Dan Quinn was one of the more sought after d-line coaches. He helped turned Kris Jenkins into a dominant two gap defender, and lead the Jets to a top 5 rush defense. If we're healthy, there's no reason we shouldn't be at least competing for a playoff spot. And with all due respect to Julian Peterson-he was getting old and was not worth the money, on top of the fact his coverage skills weren't what they were. We got younger, stronger and faster at the position. We also got better on the D-line, and if you get pressure with the front four and don't need to blitz then Julian's strengths aren't as valuable. Also, when we do do a linebacker blitz, Leroy Hill will be the one. He had 7.5 sacks as a rookie, so he's a capable rusher. Also in 2007, when Leroy had a sack, we won the game. The guy can hit and knock a QB out, he did so to Jeff Garcia and Marc Bulger. Whoever wrote that is probably just an ignorant buffoon. Yes, we were a 4-12 team.
