This. Bowman was out in coverage on 3rd downs most of the time but if he cant make it all the way back then drafting an ILB with top notch cover skills becomes a must.

IF Mangini wants his ILB's in coverage. These days, we may just add more DB's and "save their feet."

How is it that these guys don't seem to have any issue with the cap? They now have 3-4 of the highest paid players in the league and still haven't paid the smurf.

That's a debate but whos going to stop Lynch with Bowman on Graham?

Who's going to protect Wilson while he waits for Graham to get open/run his route?
Bad move IMO

You seem desperate to convince others and yourself that landing Jimmy Graham doesn't help the Seahawks.

All the reports I've seen is it's just a 1st

The New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks have agreed on a trade sending Pro Bowl tight end Jimmy Graham to Seattle for multiple draft picks and center Max Unger, according to league sources.

Wonder if it's their 31st AND "multiple draft picks?"

Yep Grahams the ideal receiver for the midget. Wilson has always said he modeled his (passing) game after Drew Brees so it makes perfect sense. Just throw up a Hail Mary rainbow pass anywhere in his vicinity and let him catch it over everyone else.

We can take graham out of the game like new England did and not worry about any Wrs.

Allen is the best GM in business right now. Drafts well and gets trades done. ITs going to be difficult seeing Graham now.

Or he's mortgaging the future on the next 1-2 years before they begin their own purge.

If they win another SB or two....maybe worth it

Injury bug has to catch up with this damn team. It started to happen late last season. It will get worse this upcomming season.

where are they getting the money? Graham has a big contract and they just signed Lynch to a big a$$ contract plus all the money they wasted on percy harvin. Factor in their defensive studs like sherman, earl thomas, cam chancellor and their dline plus the contract Wilson will want and their gm is pulling off some magical $$hit with the salary cap.
