Prepare for a center priority The most illuminating comment from Klint Kubiak during a day of interviews yesterday was a remark he made to Softy & Dick on KJR: “If you’re going to be successful in the zone scheme, it all starts with an elite center.” With the greatest respect to Olu Oluwatimi, he is ..read more

Everything the Seahawks do in the media is deliberate. Last year they weren’t being non-committal over Geno Smith — while constantly changing the subject to Drew Lock during press-conferences — for a laugh.

They’re still $16.7m in the red in terms of effective cap space but there are simple ways to get into the black in the coming weeks. If you haven’t seen it, I’d highly recommend checking out Curtis Allen’s thoughts on ..read more

With the Senior Bowl in the books there’s really only one topic in town as we build up to the combine. What is going to happen with Geno Smith? This is the next domino to fall, before attentions turn to other matters such as fixing the offensive line in free agency and/or the draft. The ..read more
