If I was Baalke I'd wait until VD faces Kam Chancellor again, if he can catch 1 pass then maybe he deserves a raise!

Please. It's not hard to level someone when they're not bracing for impact (because they don't see you coming). I've seen far better hits than that.

Or worse, depending on your POV.

Maybe he doesn't and that's the strategy. His agent must know he could start at tackle for some teams and make a lot more money doing that.

This is a bad strategy if a trade is what they are banking on....I could definitely see them letting him rot for a season if he doesnt report.

It depends. Boone's agent may know something we don't know, like that there are a couple teams who would like to wait until Niner organizational frustration is at its height and then come in with a decent offer like a third rounder or something like that. If he continues to hold out, I could easily imagine Baalke pulling the trigger for a second or third round pick plus possibly another player.

I'm betting if he holds out too long, there is a good chance he gets traded.

Trade him for a CB? Hmmm.

Davis was not among the five players made available to the media during the hour-long, noon-time session, at which time he did comment through Twitter.
"Get ready for a new season and a new superhero. I am #CaptainTorpedo," Davis tweeted with a photo of a "Captain Torpedo" logo without further elaboration.


I'll go ahead and read too much into it. He started off the year underwater, but is about to blow it up. Hence, Captain Torpedo.

Every hit on every player that wasn't able to brace for impact. Ever.

Meaning, it's a given that the defenseless player in this equation is going to come out on the losing end of a 200+ lb safety flying at them at full speed.

I imagine that many Seahawk fans aren't aware--being new to the NFL and all--but Kam is hardly the league's only hard hitter. Nor is he the hardest hitter.

CaptainTorpedo could just be something to psych himself out for next time he faces Chancellor who's torpedoed VD a few times as we know.

Kam is the only defender that consistently rocks VD, and VD definitely knows it.

Dashon Goldson hit fools much harder than Kam ever did
