- 825 - LIVE REACTION: Seahawks STEAL Christian Haynes in the 3rd round!
The Seahawks addressed one of their biggest needs in the third round of the NFL Draft tonight, selecting Connecticut guard Christian Haynes with the 81st pick. Who is Haynes, how does he fit into the Seahawks roster, and what might lie ahead as Seattle looks forward to having 5 picks on day 3 of the draft? Join Dan for all the answers.

What if I told you the Seattle Seahawks had a chance to select the best defensive tackle in the entire draft at pick 16? Would you have stayed there and picked, or still wanted to trade down to accumulate more selections?
Well, John Schneider chose to do the former, adding Murphy to Mike Macdonald's defensive front.
What does the 21 year old have to offer? And what might the rest of the draft look like for the Hawks?
Listen in to find out - including a fresh mock draft simulating what the next two days may end up looking like when all is said and done at the draft in Detroit.

The budget has gotten tight for GM John Schneider and the Seattle Seahawks. With less than $2 million in available salary cap space this year, and not much more than that looking ahead to 2025 either, some major decisions will need to be made in the coming days and months. In fact, they'll need to adjust some contracts or jettison a few players just to sign any players taken in this weekend's NFL draft!
Should fans be concerned?
Who better to break it all down than Curtis Allen, who does such a fantastic job analyzing this (among other things) for Rob Staton's Seahawks Draft Blog.
Curtis will update us on the Seahawks payroll situation, and provide some answers as to just how they can manage it all this year and next.

Emory Hunt publishes the Football Gameplan Draft Guide and provides draft coverage for CBS Sports. He scours the country looking for talent, and I find that he's much more objective and open-minded than other draft analysts.... much more willing to include lesser-known FCS players in his rankings.
As a result, his lists look quite a bit different than many of the other mainstream publications you may have seen.
We'll talk about that, while also digging into the Seahawks roster and getting Emory's thoughts on potential fits - both in the first round and later on - at their positions of greatest needs.
I also ask Emory to provide a few sleeper names that others seem to be overlooking, as well as a couple guys he thinks are being OVER rated.

The Seahawks missed the playoffs in 2023, ushering in a new era as legendary head coach Pete Carroll was replaced by young first-timer Mike Macdonald.
There's a lot of work to be done as the team entered free agency with fewer players under contract than any team in the NFL. But as we assess things now just one week after the start of free agency, is it possible Seattle's overall roster is actually better than the one that finished the season in Arizona?
I'll make the argument that yes, it is, and with the draft still ahead it has a chance to get even more talented.
Join me on a position-by-position tour of the roster as I make my case.

College football scout and owner of The Football Scout channel on YouTube, Sanjit T joins the show today to weigh in on the state of the Seattle Seahawks offensive line.
Now that the most pressing needs have been addressed through free agency on defense and at tight end, the offensive line remains as a perceived weakness among fans and analysts, particularly on the interior.
Is there cause for concern about the lack of experience at center and guard? With very little salary cap space remaining, are there still moves the Hawks can make to address it, or will it have to be a priority in next month's NFL draft?
Sanjit shares his thoughts on a couple young players he sees as potential long-term starters that the team already has on the roster, plus an under-the-radar name to consider - and we take a look ahead at some possible fits at guard in the draft.

Christian Caple has been living in the pacific northwest and covering the University of Washington football team for years, so who better to speak to the potential fit of Husky prospects with the Seattle Seahawks in this year's upcoming NFL draft?
And this is no ordinary UW draft class....a record 13 of them participated in the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis last week, and there's a good chance the entire baker's dozen will be drafted, breaking the school record set in 1998 when 10 Huskies were selected.
There are some obvious potential connections with Ryan Grubb and Scott Huff joining the Seahawk coaching staff after two seasons on Montlake - will Michael Penix be a potential target for John Schneider as he looks to solidify the QB position for the long-term? - but are there some other logical fits among the group as well?
And what are the qualities that Ryan Grubb posesses that lead Caple to believe he'll suceed at the NFL level?
Let's discuss......

The national champion Michigan Wolverines sent a record 18 players to the NFL scouting combine last week, and new Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald is familiar with them all, having served as defensive coordinator in Ann Arbor in 2021.
As he and general manager John Schneider set out to retool the roster and establish a new culture, I wanted to see what it might look like if they drafted Wolverine prospects exclusively...... and I like the results so much I just HAD to share it with you!

Does this indicate the team is in more of a rebuild mode than some anticipated?
Who could be released next, or will we see some players restructure their contracts in order to create even more financial flexibility?

So much speculation about the Seahawks apparent interest in some of the top QB prospects in this year's draft (they met with Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels at the combine), guys who they would no doubt have to move UP in the draft to acquire. But... can they afford it?
I'll take a look back at some trade-up scenarios in the not-too-distant past, and compare them to reports of what it might take to move up in THIS year's draft to try and make sense of it all.

So much QB talk surrounding the Seattle Seahawks! Should they keep riding with Geno Smith or turn to Drew Lock? Or should they go all out to move up and grab one of the top prospects at the position in this years NFL Draft?
Or...... should they wait until 2025?!
"But Dan, that's CRAZY!!! Next year's class doesn't look that great!"
Is that so?
In this episode I'll break down every NFL team to determine which ones are hunting QB's this year, and then show you all the available options at the position (there's an unusually high number of them!) Then, we'll look at which teams may still be looking for answers at the position in 2025 and match that up with next year's potential draft class.

Once the press conference started, it was new offensive coordinator who stood out as the days highlight. Discussing his offensive philosophy, how the whole thing went down with Alabama, and his excitement to work with the Seahawks skill position players, it was evident that Grubb has been planning for this move for a long time.

It's been nearly two weeks since the Seattle Seahawks fired long-time head coach Pete Carroll and his successor still has yet to be named. NFL rules have drawn the process out, which only leads to more time speculating and trying to make sense of all the rumors and reports.
During that time, my feelings have changed a bit on who I'd like to see take the helm in the Emerald City. Today on the show, I discuss my UPDATED Top 5 list, and offer a couple honorable mention choices as well.

Griffin Sturgeon is, in my opinion, one of the best analysts in the game when it comes to analyzing scheme, performance and personnel - so I wanted to pick his brain about the possibility of Dan Quinn being the successor to Pete Carroll as Seahawks head coach.
Co-Host of the outstanding Seattle Overload Podcast, Sturgeon has some compelling idea about what a Quinn Seahawks regime may look like:
How would his scheme and defensive execution look compared to what Pete ran? How would the current personnel fit, and what changes might we see on the roster? Who would Quinn bring with him as offensive coordinator? Would he be more or less willing to continue forward with Geno Smith as QB than some of the other candidates?And much more!!!

As things stand today, the Seattle Seahawks are currently OVER the salary cap headed into the 2024 season, but don't panic. The team has plenty of avenues to clear payroll space to retain or add key players.
Just what those moves are and which players they'll impact will depend largely on who is hired as the next head coach to succeed Pete Carroll, who was fired January 10th after 14 seasons at the helm.
Field Gulls deputy editor and salary cap expert John Gilbert joins me on this episode to discuss a number of ways the Seahawks can manipulate their salary cap.
How much can the team clear in payroll space?
Which players would need to be cut or traded to create the most flexibility? Which players on the current roster are "no-brainers" to be released? Listen until the end for all the answers!SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions:

The competition for the top coaching candidates is fierce. Which direction will they choose to turn? Go with a veteran like Dan Quinn, or an unproven fresh face like Bobby Slowik? A defensive guru or a modern offensive mind?

The Seattle Seahawks beat the Arizona Cardinals today 21-20 to secure a winning season at 9-8, and yet much of the fan base is losing their MINDS tonight. Why? Because the Green Bay Packers beat the Chicago Bears to earn the final wild card playoff spot in the NFC, eliminating the Seahawks in the process.
Once again the Seahawks defense was atrocious, and it almost led to a loss to the 4-win Cardinals, but that's not all that fans want to talk about in it's aftermath.
Some want to pin the blame on Geno Smith and are calling for an all-out assault on drafting a QB, while others are pining for the dismissal of long-time head coach Pete Carroll.
Tune in for my live postgame reaction with my thoughts on the game itself, and share my thoughts on those topics and more.
Will this be the final nail in the coffin that ends Carroll's tenure in Seattle? Would team owner Jody Allen dare to make such a bold move, especially in light of yet another winning season?

Once again the Seahawks find themselves needing a win and a Green Bay loss on the final weekend of the season to sneak into the playoffs, and once again it's due to a bad defensive performance in their latest loss, 30-23 to the Steelers.
Since then, Pete Carroll has said he knows how to fix the defensive issues they're having, and will have them ready to play this Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals.
But... haven't we heard this before? Is this yet another broken record of broken promises?
I'll compare some other Carroll quotes about this same issue from the last couple seasons, as well as dive into two other areas of the team where there seem to be huge disconnects and dysfunction right now.

For the second week in a row, the Seattle Seahawks starting quarterback led them on a long, last-minute touchdown drive to pull out an important win.... only this time it was Geno Smith instead of Drew Lock.
Facing the Tennessee Titans in his first game back after missing two games due to injury, Smith shook off some first-half rust in leading the Seahawks to yet another come-from-behind win. And this one was big.... improving the Seahawks record to 8-7 and putting them back in the drivers seat for a wild card playoff spot.
In this RAPID REACTION episode I'll share my immediate thoughts about what we saw in this game: the good, the bad, and the misunderstood.

In what was an ugly game that didn't seem to be going the Seahawks way for most of the night, Seattle pulled out a stunning upset on Monday Night Football, snapping a 4-game losing streak with their 20-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. With Drew Lock once again starting for an injured Geno Smith, the Eagles seemed to control the game for most of the night, even with an under-the-weather Jalen Hurts playing at less than his typical stellar self. But with under 2 minutes to play, Lock took over and engineered a 92 yard drive, accounting for all of it in the air including two big plays to DK Metcalf, and the game-winning 29 yard TD pass to rookie WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

The Seattle Seahawks may have played their best game of the season Thursday night in Dallas, and it still wasn't enough to beat the red-hot Cowboys as they drop to 6-6 on the season after the 41-35 loss.
There were some positives to build on from this one, but they were marred from a couple unfortunate coaching decisions late in the 4th quarter.

One often-repeated definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting similar results. Is that what we're seeing with the Seahawks right now?
I believe the results of last night's 31-13 loss to the 49ers indicate that changes are needed in Seattle..... big changes.
Which ones am I talking about? Can they be done now, or will they have to wait until the offseason?
Most notably, is it time for a new coaching staff and direction?

Yet again, the Seattle Seahawks led the LA Rams 13-7 at the half, just as they did in week 1. And yet again, they come away empty-handed.
Sean McVay is now 15-5 vs. Pete Carroll after the Rams 17-16 Week 11 victory, dropping Seattle to 6-4 and out of a first place tie for the lead in the NFC West.

Who's to blame for this loss that so easily could have been a win?
I'll break it all down AND leave you smiling with a bit of comic relief, so stick around to the end for that :-)

The Seahawks win a thrilling home contest as they get 5 Jason Myers field goals, including the buzzer-beater, to beat the Washington Commanders 29-26 at Lumen Field in Seattle on Sunday.
The offense rolled up nearly 500 yards including 369 in the air from Geno Smith and yet.... there were fans who wanted him benched at halftime.

But for now at least, the Seahawks improve to 6-3 to remain tied for first place in the NFC West with the San Francisco 49ers.
Is that enough to allow fans to rest easy that the team is poised for a playoff run? In this episode I take questions and comments from live viewers and respond to them on air.

In this exclusive AUDIO-ONLY episode, I'll take a look at the Washington Commanders as they get set to visit the Seahawks in a Week 10 NFL Matchup at Lumen Field in Seattle.
Who is this team, how do they match up with the Seahawks, and should 12's be concerned about their explosive offense?
In some way, these two teams are extremely evenly matched. Could it be a tougher matchup than fans want to believe coming off the Hawks horrific performance in Baltimore?

Geno Smith vs. Drew Lock.... it's what some of you want to talk about this week, and has even been a big topic on local sports radio.
Is it warranted?
Today on the show I'll take a look behind the numbers. Who is Geno Smith, historically, and who is Drew Lock? How do they compare? Do their combined college and NFL stats indicate certain skills that may help make sense of the difference between the two?
In short, would the Seahawks be better off giving Lock a chance to play? Also, I'll look back in Pete Carroll's history to another example of when his veteran starter struggled mightily (even worse than Geno is) to try and gauge how he might handle this.

Is the sky falling in the Pacific Northwest? Some fans seems to think so after the Seattle Seahawks brutal 37-3 loss at the hands of the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
Where does this team stand after that loss. Are they the first-place, 5-3 team their record would suggest? Or.... does this young roster have a LOT farther to go before they can be considered a legitimate playoff contender?
Today I pose 3 important questions I have coming out of this game, the answers to which will determine just how far this team might be able to go. And we NEED to get these answers quickly, with two "winnable" games coming up before a daunting stretch of games to follow against the NFC's best teams.
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/seahawksforever-danviens/messageTue, 07 Nov 2023 - 35min - 746 - PREVIEW - Seahawks vs the Ravens by the numbers
Do the Seattle Seahawks have what it takes to travel to Baltimore and beat Lamar Jackson and the red-hot Ravens?
They just might, if they tweak a few things in their running game. At least that's what some of the analytics suggest.
Today I'll take a look at some of those numbers, and try to dissect just how the Ravens defense has been stopping teams, and how the Seahawks may be able to crack that code.

The Seattle Seahawks are reuniting with an old friend, bringing back 2015 2nd round draft pick Frank Clark on a one year deal. The 30-year-old DE/OLB is expected to help fill the void left by the season-ending injury to Uchenna Nwosu.
Clark played in just 2 games with the Denver Broncos this season before being released after things didn't work out, but prior to that he racked up 58.5 career sacks over 8 years with the Seahawks and Chiefs. And he's done his best work in the playoffs, ranking 3rd all-time in playoff sacks with 13.5
What does he have left in the tank? How will the Seahawks use him and how much will he play? Will we see him this Sunday against the Browns? Does this take the Hawks out of any more significant trade-deadline action? Is this a GOOD move?
Tune in for my reaction, and give me YOUR thoughts on what you think of Frank Clark coming back to the Seattle Seahawks for one more go-round.

The Seattle Seahawks improved to 4-2 with their 20-10 home win over the Arizona Cardinals.
What went right, and what needs to improve before the team heads into the toughest part of their schedule? I offer my 5 primary takeaways from their performance against the Cards.

Rookie WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba had his best game as a Seahawk Sunday against the Bengals, hauling in 4 catches for 48 yards in the 17-13 loss, but a number of plays NOT made could have made his performance look even better AND helped turn that loss into a win.
Is there enough evidence from Sunday to imply that JSN is poised for a big breakout? In this film breakdown I'll show you how he got open (and how OFTEN he got open) and total up the numbers of what *might* have been if Geno Smith and he had hooked up a couple of the other times he was open.

Also, is the Seahawks offense not paying enough attention to what they do well? Are they not playing to their strength?

In this episode I react to the Seahawks 17-13 loss in Cincinnati - including my 5 Takeaways from the game as Seattle drops to 3-2 on the season.
Front and center, I address the widespread sentiment that Geno Smith is primarily to blame for this one, and I go to the All-22 coaches film to try and understand just what went wrong.
But as is usually the case, there was a lot of GOOD that Geno contributed in this game, and he had quite a bit of help in coming up just short of a big win.
What does it all mean for the Seahawks and Smith moving forward?

For this one I'm joined by Jake Ellenbogen, who does such an outstanding job covering all things LA Rams, as the Seahawks get set to host their division rival at Lumen Field on Sunday.
A lot of these Rams names may not be familiar to you, and they'll be without star WR Cooper Kupp for this week 1 matchup, but some of the things Jake says about this young LA roster may give you pause before you go chalking this up as an easy win for your Seahawks.
Who steps up in Kupp's absence? Which version of Cam Akers can we expect? How healthy is Matt Stafford? Is it "Aaron Donald and 10 other dudes" or is there more to this Rams defense? How many games does Jake see the Rams winning (and for a bonus he gives us his Seahawks prediction also.) You may be in for a surprise.
