In my second installment of my 2010 NFL Mock Draft I received some comments from outspoken Redskins and Lions fans discussing their opinion on my selections of a quarterback and offensive tackle respectively.
Well now that the Senior Bowl has come and gone that has only a very slight effect on the third edition of my mock draft. So with that being said here is the third edition of my 2010 NFL Mock Draft. Click here for my first and [...]

As Pete Carroll, John Schneider and the rest of the Seahawks scouting department prepare for the senior bowl this Saturday in Mobile Alabama to get a look at some of the top seniors in this draft class I've decided to go break down a highly touted junior, corner back Joe Haden.
The Seahawks currently have major needs in their entire defensive backfield, mostly at the second corner position and safety.
Marcus Trufant was placed on the PUP list to begin the season which meant that he would miss the first eight weeks of the season, which inevitably wound up hurting his overall play. Trufant was flagged at least eight times for pass interference calls this [...]

If you could look into an eight ball and ask it "Will Matt Hasselbeck be done after this season?" What do you think it would say? Well some fans and analyst believe that he still has 2-3 years left in him and that all Seattle needs to do is get him a great offensive line to protect him. Others will say that this should be his final year, not only in Seattle but in the NFL and that he should retire.
In the end, the Seahawks 2009 season should be and will be his final year in the NFL and with the Seattle Seahawks. Now there are many reason behind all this.
The Seahawks are currently looking around the league to find their long term GM after Tim Ruskell resigned on December 2nd, with only three months left on his five year contract.
Usually when their is new outside GM coming into [...]

SEATTLE, WASH- As if losing 27-3 was not bad enough for the Seattle Seahawks, it got worse.
Seahawks middle linebacker Lofa Tatupu is officially done for the season after suffering a torn pectoral muscle against the Arizona Cardinals.
Tatupu has missed one full game up to this season and parts of other games against Chicago and San Francisco.

The swan song for every Seattle sports team is injuries. Most predominantly the Seattle Seahawks. Yet again bitten by the injury bug in 2009 but so far it hasn't effected them.
CB Marcus Trufant, who was placed on the PUP list before the regular season is expected back in five weeks. Recently signed CB Travis Fisher is nursing a strained hamstring and is questionable for the Seahawks week two game in San Francisco.
As of now the Seahawks are going with three main corner backs. Ken Lucas, Kelly Jennings and Josh Wilson.
This passed Sunday they fared well against a week St Louis Rams offense but were exposed by wide receiver Laurent Robinson.
This week they don't have to worry to much in San Francisco with the 49ers offense either. They will focus more on running [...]

Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora Jr reported today that star players, cornerback Marcus Trufant and LT Walter Jones will be out indefinitely.
Jones is going to under go arthroscopic knee surgery and Trufant has a disk problem in his back and has not practiced at all since the start of training camp.
It has been reported that the Seahawks have interest in OT Levi Jones and could bring him in to bulk up the offensive line.
The Seahawks will most likely start with Ken Lucas at the No 1 and Josh Wilson at the No 2 unless the decide to sign a free agent cornerback to bulk up the defensive backs as well.
Currently Jason Craft, Reynaldo Hill, Brian Kelly, and Mike McKenzie are all current free agent cornerbacks.
Look for the Seahawks to add either an OT or CB or [...]

In 2010 the NFL pro bowl will be played in Miami Florida, instead of Hawaii. Now last season the Seahawks had one loan pro bowl on their roster. That player, Julian Peterson, is now in Detroit. Usual Seahawks like Walter Jones, Lofa Tatupu, Patrick Kerney, Matt Hasselbeck etc. Non of them played the entire season and none of them made the pro bowl.
In my last article I talked about three Seahawks who are key to the success of the offense. Now I have selected three players on defense who have a great shot at the Pro bowl and are key to the success on defense.
1) The entire LB corps (Leroy Hill, Lofa Tatupu and Aaron Curry)
Examination: The most expensive part of the Seahawks defense, and the second most expensive position on the entire roster next to WR. [...]
