Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The top half of the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft skewed heavily toward the offense. Quarterbacks, wide receivers and offensive tackles made up the top 12 picks. Seattle stayed put as Byron Murphy II, the top interior defender in the draft, fell to them with the 16th overall pick. After taking Devon Witherspoon last year, the Seahawks have now taken the second defensive player off the board in back-to-...

Through the first three parts of our 2024 quarterback draft series, we've evaluated the top late-round picks all the way up to the QBs at the top of the draft. But where should the Seahawks get involved? It's possible at least four quarterbacks come off the board in the top 10. It could be even more, based on the number of QB-needy teams and the talent available. What would it take for the Seahawks to get into the top 10? If that's...

In the third part of our look at the quarterbacks in the 2024 NFL draft, we get into Adam's top three. With the focus primarily toward a QB's floor than his ceiling, the list ranks out differently than many might expect. While others are focused on playing off schedule, the ability to change arm angles and some of the 'wow' moments--we focus more on the things that make solid pro quarterbacks. How do Bo Nix, Jaden Daniels, and Drak...

Caleb Williams will likely be the first quarterback off the board in the 2024 NFL Draft, but should he be? We get into the upside and downside of four different quarterbacks in the second part of our series detailing this year's draft picks. And while we rank out JJ McCarthy, Caleb Williams, Michael Penix and Jordan Travis, some will need time or coaching to have the best opportunity to succeed.

Throughout the years, even if the Seahawks have needed a quarterback or not, we like to go through the latest crop of NFL quarterback candidates and pick out our favorites. Adam's track record has been solid and rather than bury it in one of our flagship episodes, we're giving it it's own series. In part, because of the amount of depth in this year's 2024 class. We talk about the methodology for evaluating a quarterback, a couple o...

The Seahawks signed a veteran receiver Laviska Shenault to the roster this past week. Should we read into the signing as to what may be in store for the Seahawks offense, or is he some insurance in case another receiver doesn't work out? John Schneider was on the radio this week and talked in generalities about the draft and based on his comments, we aren't likely to see any drastic changes in draft strate...

Happy Easter! We're dropping this delicious action green colored egg right into your baskets and stirring the pot. Adam and Clinton walk through why this year might be a supremely beneficial year to be picking at spot 16 as they debate what our Seahawks should do at 16 as well as what they think our GM will probably do. Blue eggs, blue chips, and Seahawks throwback blue dominate this episode.

The NFL passed some new rules this week around bringing the kickoff back into the game and taking out swivel hip drop tackles. Seems like a fair trade off. We're getting closer to having a sky judge with another rule change that, if it goes well, most of us won't even notice that it's working. General Manager John Schneider says the offensive line is a work in progress, but there isn't much that can be don...

Now that the NFC West has passed through the first couple waves of free agency, we run down some of the biggest moves by the Seattle Seahawks competitors. Did the Los Angeles Rams win free agency by spending on the offensive line? Or are they the biggest losers because their Hall of Fame defender decided to pack up his locker and call it a career?  The Arizona Cardinals have four new starters in the trenches. It would be bigger new...

In the past week the Seahawks made a move to fill a large hole in the defensive line. The addition of Johnathan Hankins adds some beef, but have the Seahawks done enough yet to satisfy all aspects of the trenches? They also added another linebacker and some safety depth. What do those additions mean to the overall strength of the team and their ability to improve the defense in 2024. Which signing has been...

Days into free agency, the Seattle Seahawks have worked to try and fill holes at positions of need. They needed a backup quarterback with Drew Lock heading to New York, and now they have Sam Howell after swapping picks with Washington. George Fant is returning to the Seahawks, but will he be able to find his way into a starting role? Seattle signed a center/guard, a safety and a linebacker. Are they clear improvements or a sign of ...

The day started slow with news of Will Dissly, Colby Parkinson and Jordyn Brooks finding new homes. But then things turned in the late afternoon for our Seahawks. Noah Fant re-upped and the one we all wanted, Leo Williams inked a new 3-year deal with Seattle. We discuss the moves, talk about the ballooning guard market, if Patrick Queen could be a signing on the horizon and more. We're on the verge of 4,000 subscribers! Please head...

We are days away from the start of the NFL's new league year and the beginning of free agency. Where do the Seahawks currently stand with players currently under contract? Seattle has depth at running back, wide receiver and cornerback. However, it's quite the opposite when it comes to tight end, interior offensive line and linebacker. Based on the areas where they're deficient, it should make it clear where they'll attack free age...

The Seahawks moved to open up salary cap space on Tuesday with free agency on the horizon. Jamal Adams was player many expected to be released considering his cap hit and injury history. We discuss why Quandre Diggs was cut despite years of selections to the Pro Bowl and if Will Dissly could possibly return. Could any other Seahawks players be next? Which Seahawks should John Schneider use the money to re-sign ahead of free agency?...

EJ Snyder of Bootleg Football is back on the show after returning from the 2024 NFL Combine. He talks about the part of the combine that doesn't make it on the television ahead of the drill that begin on Thursday and how that drives some of the information that comes out of the week. Linebacker is a need for the Seahawks, so who were some of the standouts from his perspective as he had an up-close look at the athletes. On Saturday,...

Athletic beef was on display at the NFL Combine Day 1. Florida State's Braden Fiske jumped off the screen with a performance reminding analysts of Aaron Donald! But he wasn't the only impressive soon-to-be NFLer making moves and starting grooves in Indy. Tune in to catch our thoughts on some of the biggest highlights from Day 1.   And yet more news on Geno Smith came out today which leads Clinton to believe that Seahawks GM, John S...

John Schneider, general manager of the Seattle Seahawks, took questions from the media at the NFL Combine on Tuesday. He talked about the new coaching staff, the impact of not having the staff at the combine, and what he looks for in evaluating quarterbacks. With regard to the quarterbacks, currently on the team, Schneider gave a dismissive and non-committal answer, but he followed up with some of the process that the coaches will ...

Dan Viens of the Seahawks Forever podcast joins the show to look ahead at this week's NFL Combine. Which position groups is he most interested in for Seattle as we head into draft season? Considering the coaching change, have we seen the last of Bobby Wagner for the Seahawks? Saturday is generally the best day to watch in terms of offensive players, but the team needs for quarterback, running back and wide receiver are relatively l...
