Hasselbeck might be available afterall...

According to NFL Network's Albert Breer, Seattle is "seriously consider pulling the trigger on a new signal-caller in the first round."

The Seahawks are slated to pick at No. 25, but getting such a low draft pick (they would have picked No. 8 overall had they lost in Week 17) may have thrown a wrench in their plans. As it stands, Nevada's Colin Kaepernick, Arkansas' Ryan Mallett, and Washington's Jake Locker could be available, but the Hawks will need to trade up if they want to land Missouri's Blaine Gabbert or Auburn's Cam Newton.

Trade spots for Mebane and Hasselbeck and maybe another pick? Discuss.

This doesn't mean he will be available. They are just planning for the future like Green Bay did when they drafter Rodgers when Brett was still slinging it. Hasselbeck has some years on him.

If they are smart, and Carroll is, they will keep Hasselbeck to mentor and be starter until new guy is ready.

    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.  
    • The most telling sign, IMO, of a team on the upward swing is who we lost in the off-season. Who left that even saw the field? Woods, Clowney, Sanders, & Hekker. OK...no big deal. Clowney is the only 1 that I raised an eyebrow over and I get that it was a money decision. No need to pay him over $7M to take snaps from our draft picks when he was just OK last year.
