I think I read that tooI think because of him missing so much time he is under our control for longer than that and then we can tender him too for a year.

Ever enduring hype? Where do you see that? I see a guy who is already pretty good, who played his rookie year then 3 games in year 2 at LG before missing the rest of the year due to injury. Then he switched positions for year 3 and was injured enough to never practice in full for most of the year yet was still OK. So yeah, if it is between him, Smith and Gregory, I've seen a lot more so far out of Collins to think he has a better chance to be a top player than the other two and I'm happy to have him as a starting OL myself.
I see him as odd man out too. Injuries will do that. So should lifetime suspensions and yet here we are .Gregory may be the best pass rusher on the roster at least potentially. Gregory wI'll be a factor and I look forward to see him opposite DLaw. The dline is going to sack qbs. I predict Tapper will get cut
Yep, the same year I said he better give Dallas a huge home team discount.Unrestricted 2020
It's two full seasons away assuming he makes the team and stays with us that whole time. We'd still get the same number of years out of him that we would if he played all along. So, at that point he'll owe us nothing more than any other player just like we'll owe him nothing. Step 1, make the team this year. Step 2, make game day roster and contribute...Yep, the same year I said he better give Dallas a huge home team discount.

Gregory can be an 8-10 sack player if he is healthy and gets enough snaps. The kid is a physical freak
Hmmm...I look at Gregory as a pure speed rusher. He's not going to be as much help in the run (at least not right at him) and his main move to get to the QB is just going to be pure speed. While I think based on the very small sample size we saw that he will be an 8 plus sack guy as long as he wins a big role in the nickel defense (which I expect him to), I can't say for sure he will be. But, the main obstacle to him reaching his potential is being in shape. Supposedly he is already, but even if not he certainly should be by week one. So I don't see him needing half a season to get to where he will be. Sure the more reps and coaching the better, but sans injury he'll get all he can handle between now and week one.Unfortunately I think it takes at least a half season for him to get to that point. Hope I'm wrong
I tend to agree with you. This guy may show some flashes in preseason against second team guys but reality is he's been in the league a short time and missing basically two season sure doesn't help I think he plays on 3rd and plus 5 situationsUnfortunately I think it takes at least a half season for him to get to that point.

Everyone will rotate in throughout the game and in different situations, but unless injury strikes elsewhere that is exactly when he should play. Let him pin back his ears and use his pure athletic ability to try to get home. He and Crawford could be a nice two man rotation with each getting to play to their strengths.I tend to agree with you.

OK boys and girls, here is today's issue of the Earl Thomas saga...
Earl Thomas - DB - Seahawks
NBC Sports Radio's Newy Scruggs reports contract-year FS Earl Thomas is "done" with the Seahawks.
Per Scruggs, Thomas "plans to sell his Seattle home," and will only report if he gets a new contract. Scruggs also reports Thomas has expressed interest in playing for the Raiders, apparently telling owner Mark Davis to "come get him." Thomas has been most strongly linked to the Cowboys. Both Thomas and the Seahawks need this saga to end, almost certainly with a fresh start for Thomas elsewhere.
