I rather focus on resigning Jones and Branch. Then pick up a we through the stacked draft.

[Spartan8585]

In other news think we'll trade up this year?

[furmat60]

Not to say I told you so, but I said last year that Golden Tate would have a helluva year this year.

Not sure if Mike Wallace is unrestricted FA or not but it would be huge if we could sign someone like him or Bowe. We have 18.5 mill in cap room next season, hope its used to sign someone big. I really think a big name reciever is a piece we need to take us to that next level, we need our own Julio Jones, Roddy White, Calvin Johnson etc

I didn't realize Wallace was 5'11 i think i might pass on him now knowing that i like my guys taller because when they do lose there speed they still have the size advantage.

I think we will pick somebody up in the draft its pretty deep.

I think its more Wilson buying Tate time it seemed like watching ND highlights that Clausen would run around and then just throw it deep to him as well like Wilson does in the pros.

This is probably why he wasn't very good with Hasselbeck who was a precision type passer he didn't run around like Wilson can with his athleticism Tate also isn't a very good route runner which is why they moved him outside.

I would still take Wallace in a heartbeat regardless of his size, I dont think players necessarily lose their speed, just look at Steve Smith. I think its more of an overall decline over time

[Seahawker562]

Just remembered who I have in my sig haha

Anyone have a cool Zach Miller sig I could nab?

[FWBrodie]

I had faith in Tate.



Then again I said Curry was going to blow up in his last year with us

Oh I was waaaay off with Curry, but nobody wasn't.

He was raw. We knew that. He has developed. You're really making a lot of leaps here. Tate got open all kinds of ways this season. Was his route-running rough when he was drafted? Yes. Does he have the same feel for space and reading what defenses are doing that Baldwin has shown? No? Is that why they "moved him outside"? When was he a slot in the first place, but no. He was on the outside in college, he's matured and grown into the NFL game, he's versatile enough to line up anywhere, and they want the ball in his hands. If Matt was in his prime and had Tate as he is now he would have used him just fine.

Sometimes you draft players who are polished, sometimes you take some raw talent and coach it up. Tate is not the same player who struggled to crack the suit list his rookie year.

I wonder why Baldwin struggled so much. His injuries must have been nagging him because when he was on the field healthy, he was making some spectacular grabs in traffic.

I think we have too much talent at WR to need a top WR. Our needs at WR don't outweigh our need at DT or even DE.

I think Baldwin not showing up was his injuries plus having to work with a new QB but don't know how much of an excuse that is everyone else had to get used to Wilson and they were fine.

He did have a lingering hamstring injury and tweaked his ankle twice. It looked like games 16-17 and the WC game, he was at full strength. I'm excited for him next year!

Our success next year could depend on how well Baldwin plays.

Agreed. If Baldwin plays like he did last year again, I would take back my comments about needing a big name receiver, Baldwin was awesome last year

[seahawks509]

We have almost everything we need at WR. Big physical deep threat (Rice) our playmaker (Tate) our possesion guy (Baldwin). We do need a 4th guy. Maybe a red zone guy like Eifert? All three of our guys can go deep. This offense is explosive.
