      Zietler has strictly been a career RG only, where as Tomlinson has been a career LG.
      I'd prefer Bradford over Zeitler.
      Tomlinson had a pass blocking grade on par with Damien Lewis last year. That's not saying much, but hopefully Huff and Grubb can get him back to his form from 2 yrs ago. Plus we needed someone as atleast a hedge for the draft.

    I am excited that we have a LG that's very durable. Seahawks are mending fences and that spot was certainly a spot to be filled. They need help in this draft and cannot afford to lose a draft pick. I would use Laken as a solid backup position in hopes of drafting a LG and in a pinch maybe a starter. Seahawks needs around Geno are High on the list including a stud RB to help in rotation. Future looks a bit brighter today for the Seahawks.

    I disagree. I think the 2021 stats are slightly more indicative of how he plays on a good OLine. I think he’s some between the shitty 2022/23 and pro bowl 2021. Which is league average and passable starter. So it’s fine for this year and gives us flexibility in the draft to realllly take BPA at 16 or whatever position we end up at

    Like this move, but not in isolation. Don't know if Tomlinson is starter material to be honest. We need to do more than this at G (possibly much more) if we want a competitive OL at the start of the season. I appreciate how active this FO has been throughout all stages of the offseason thus far, though. Go Hawks!

      I think if Fautanu, Beebe, Puni, or McCormick are drafted they start at LG, and backup RT too. So we needed a decent LG backup, too. Forsyth can be a cut, and Fant would be the #3 Tackle still, this year in this scenario.

  • @Filipinomad
    @Filipinomad Месяц назад

    Outside of Big Cat and the Fants, our FAs are showing that this is definietly a low expectations year. Many bargain basement backups and one-year contracts. JSMM are building towards next year, with extra picks and more cap freedom, and of course an actual year of NFL experience for Grubb. If JS hits on the draft like he finally did in '22 ('23 remains to be seen how good it actually was, outside of Spoon, JSN, and Charbs--and they were top 50ish picks), we can remain as competitive as we have been under Pete--hovering around the 7th seed. But once the roster is finally turned over to the new vision next year, I expect we can finally start challenging McVay and Shanny for the division. Rookie HC, DC, and OC--we should not be expecting miracles, especially with Grubb having zero NFL experience and likely another bad OLine. We need to lower our expectations and not expect anything but progress this year--even if it's with a losing record. This will be a compelling season and I believe will be more rewarding even we don't reach Pete's 9 win ceiling.

    Hey Brendon, thanks for the video, I think this might turn out to be surprisingly good news. I was wondering if you could please check the 2023 PFF Grades, both passing and running, for Damien Lewis and Anthony Bradford. I'm really curious how Tomlinson's 2023 scores compare. Also, if you HAD to make a bet in Vegas, are the hawks drafting another IOL, DL, EDGE, or maybe even Penix at 16? Love to hear your thoughts. Thanks again. Go Haws!

    LT's durability is very reassuring. Geno may actually get a good OL for first time with Olu & Bradford due 2nd ye leaps. Also iOL will be drafted. A trade down with Chiefs or Bills or Dolphin's seems likely now, if Fautano & Fuago are not there at 16

The last glaring hole is Left Guard and hopefully (fingers crossed) we get a really really good one in the draft. If not then this guy should be serviceable, It does appear his pass blocking is better then his run blocking. Personally i am hoping we get a beast in the draft so we can see what K-9 is really capable of.
