Hes a mismatch that we never take advantage of. 1 catch inside the 10 yard line, thats just atrocious. They would rather use him as a decoy and feed kearse unwarranted targets.
The biggest problem with Graham beside his blocking is he can't seperate in the RZ. So unless Seattl wants to throw jump balls he's ineffective. A large number of his catches and yards came when RW would scramble leaving JG time to seperate downfield. He is and always has been a diva WR in a TE body. Fast but not quick.Hes a mismatch that we never take advantage of. 1 catch inside the 10 yard line, thats just atrocious. They would rather use him as a decoy and feed kearse unwarranted targets.
CB Sam Shields released by GB. He's had concussion issues, but he is a pretty good talent. Neither young nor old at 29, may be worth a look due to Shead's injury.

i think we could go big in FA, we wont be getting any comp picks so nothing will be at risk, except for the cap space. with a little finagling, we should have room for one decently big name FA.
Yeah the cap space has been mentioned, don't think spendy free agents are in the cards this off season. Got do well in the draft and have the young players on the roster develop.Everyone realizes that Seattle is ranked 21st in the league with just under $30 mil. It sounds like a lot until you factor in the top 10 teams are $50 mil up to Cleveland with $108 mil. There will be a lot of FA $ thrown around this season I think. Especially on O-linemen.NFL Salary Cap Space | Over The Cap
They likely have just over $15m to splash around with. $10+ is required for rookies and the nest egg in case of injuries to sign new players.Yeah the cap space has been mentioned, don't think spendy free agents are in the cards this off season.

Course they could always make cuts, not that I think they should....They likely have just over $15m to splash around with. $10+ is required for rookies and the nest egg in case of injuries to sign new players.
Yep but then those players need to be replaced. I think it's shaping up to be a very interesting off season. Seattle may make a few cuts? At least the corps players are all pretty much signed.Course they could always make cuts, not that I think they should....

NE has a lot of FAs they need to deal with. Butler is the # 1 priority in my opinion. Blount I'm torn on. Just reached that magical 30 y/o age. For the right price I sign him unless they think they'll get McCaffrey in the draft? I'm not sure BB invest a 1st in a RB though.
Hightower I think is gone. He got his rings now he'll want $.
Marty Bennett likely gone as well. Got a ring and with Michael getting paid he wants to eat at the same dinner table. Even started talking about it in the SB post game presser.
Branch and Mingo I think they can sign at a reasonable price.
The rest I can live w/o.
It seems to me there will be enough cap space to bring in a competent vet OL or CB for some competition and depth at those areas. I am not sure I would want to blow big bucks on a name guy anyway.
Hmmm, not really though I did hear him a couple weeks ago field a question about whether the Hawks would go after Calais Campbell this off-season, and Clayton just flat out said NO. Just looking at who the other big names would be: JPP, Charles Johnson, Dion Jordan? Do we even have room at DE to add someone?Yeah, Clayton mentioned on Friday that the Hawks are interested in a FA DE that is a pretty big name... I turned the radio off before he came back from a commercial to mention the person he was referring to... Do you have any idea who that would be?
