Projecting the Seattle Seahawks roster: Version 3.0
By Lee Vowell
Specialists (3):
Kicker: Blair Walsh
Punter: Jon Ryan
Long snapper: Tyler Ott
Summary: Thankfully, Walsh has been very good in camp since day one. On Sunday he went 2-4 with some ugly kicks. On Monday and Tuesday combined, though, he went 10-10, all kicks between 24 and 43 yards. Seattle is playing this the smart way. Walsh needs to rebuild his confidence a bit. The Seahawks giving him makeable kicks early in camp will help boost that.
Ryan, of course, will be the Seahawks punter until he is 78 years old. As long as he does not try to run a fake kick, the team is fine. Of course, not that I have said that, Ryan will run for three touchdowns on fake punts this season.
