Seahawks Forever w/ Dan Viens

Sanjit T runs The Football Scout YouTube channel (as well as some college scouting). And while his outstanding film breakdowns cover every position from all around the entire NFL, he has produced several videos lauding the talents of some young SEAHAWK players over the past two seasons.

He has a particular affinity for some of the young Seattle offensive lineman, a position of concern among the Seahawks fanbase for quite awhile.

After a couple of questionable schedules handed out by the league the last couple of season, it appears the NFL wanted to do the Seahawks a solid in Mike Macdonald's first year as Pete Carroll's successor.

It's not perfect, but it might be about as good as it could get.

I'll break down what I like, love, and hate about the Seahawks brand-new 2024 schedule on today's edition of the show.

Looks like Dre'Mont Jones is prepping for a more permanent role as an OLB/EDGE player! According to his trainer, and with video proof to back it up, Jones is focusing on pass rush moves and coverage drops as he ramps up his workouts to get ready for training camp.

What does this mean for the roster? How well will Jones fit this role? How does it compare to what Macdonald did with Jadeveon Clowney last year in Baltimore?

And, ...

What if I told you the Seattle Seahawks had a chance to select the best defensive tackle in the entire draft at pick 16? Would you have stayed there and picked, or still wanted to trade down to accumulate more selections?

Well, John Schneider chose to do the former, adding Murphy to Mike Macdonald's defensive front.

What does the 21 year old have to offer? And what might the rest of the draft look like for the Hawks?

The budget has gotten tight for GM John Schneider and the Seattle Seahawks. With less than $2 million in available salary cap space this year, and not much more than that looking ahead to 2025 either, some major decisions will need to be made in the coming days and months. In fact, they'll need to adjust some contracts or jettison a few players just to sign any players taken in this weekend's NFL draft!
