After losing Marquand Manual, Joe Jurevicious, and MAYBE Steve Hutchinson, the Seahawks finally made some acquisitions. Or at least did something anyway. We re-signed DT Rocky Bernard, probably the best DT available, and then re-signed Peter Warrick, which I'm stoked about. Hopefully he'll be 100% again and show the flashes of brilliance he once had and he'll definitely get the chance to now that Jurevicious is gone.
Today, we also added another DT, Russell Davis, to our lineup. They are stockpiled at that position with Bernard, Davis, Tubbs, Darby and Terrill. It'll be interesting how the rotation will be next year.
It also looks like the Hawks are really going after John Abraham, the Pro Bowl DE from the Jets. They have agreed to trade their 1st round pick for him as long as Abraham can agree to a long-term deal with the Seahawks. I thought the Hawks were happy with Fisher and Wistrom, but I'm sure they want to use a similar rotation that made the DT's so fresh and effective.
I was hoping the Hawks would sign Lawyer Milloy, because it'd be nice to have an able Safety onboard in case Ken Hamlin's return wasn't so hot. Oh well. Another local area player, Nate Burleson, is also looking at the Seahawks as a potential team to play for next year. That'd be interesting too.
But all and all, the big thing the Seattle folks should be waiting for is the resolution of the whole Steve Hutchinson dilemna. Is it legit to force the Hawks to match the clause stating Hutch must be the highest paid offensive lineman on the team or the whole contract is guarenteed? I think not, but we'll find out soon enough.
