Seahawks don’t boast any dominant receivers

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page by ravenhater on Thursday 3 August 2006 at 6:35 pm

Darrell Jackson is the closest thing the Seahawks have to a number one receiver.  Jackson has gone over 1,000 yards receiving three times in his career.  He only played in six games last season and has been hurting early in camp, and that is not a good sign for the Seahawks.  Jackson has played in 83 games (76 starts) and has caught 378 passes for 5,489 yards (14.5 avg) and 37 TDs.  He also has rushed six times for 18 yards.  The Seahawks need Jackson to be healthy so they don’t have to lean on Shaun Alexander so much.

Nate Burleson is the #2 receiver on the Hawks.  I wonder if he’s here because of what the Vikings did to the Seahawks (stealing Pro-Bowl Guard Steve Hutchinson).  Nevertheless, the Seahawks had a huge need at receiver and Burleson should be able to help out.  He has good hands and just enough speed.  In 2004 he went over 1,000 yards receiving for the Vikings.  Burleson has played in 44 games (33 starts) and has caught 127 passes for 1,789 yards (14.1 avg) and 12 TDs.  He also has rushed the ball 8 times for 43 yards.

Bobby Engram came to the rescue last season when Jackson got hurt.  Engram doesn’t have the speed he once had, but he’s tough, runs good routes and has good hands.  Engram has played in 135 games (83 starts) and has caught 480 passes for 5,764 yards (12.0 avg) and 28 TDs.  He also has rushed 4 times for 15 yards.

Peter Warrick has been a bust in the NFL.  The Bengals used a high first round pick on Warrick and all he showed them was alligator arms.  The Seahawks don’t over-expose him and he actually has been pretty decent for them.  Warrick has played in 79 games (60 starts) and has caught 275 passes for 2,991 yards (10.9 avg) and 18 TDs.  He also has rushed the ball 53 times for 360 yards (6.8 ypc) and two TDs.

D.J. Hackett played pretty well for the Seahawks when the injuries started to mount.  In 13 games (3 starts) he caught 28 passes for 400 yards (14.3 avg) and two TDs.

Josh Brown

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page by ravenhater on Thursday 3 August 2006 at 11:06 am

Josh Brown has been a pretty decent kicker as of late.  But he has had a problem with the longer kicks in his career as he has only converted 62.2% of his career attempts of 40+ yards.  Brown needs to fix that problem to help the offense.

Brown has converted 78.8% of his career FGs and has averaged 6.94 points per game.

Easy money to be made

The week before Thanksgiving, you can earn enough money to have an awesome dinner while watching the Lions and Cowboys on Turkey Day.  The Seahawks are playing at San Francisco, where they have covered three of the last four meetings in that city.  The 49ers are awful, no matter if it’s Alex Smith or Trent Dilfer.  I think the Hawks will win by at least 21, as Holmgren doesn’t like to show mercy on bad teams.  Alexander might score 4 TDs against that awful D the 49ers will have.

What does Shaun Alexander do for an encore?

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page by ravenhater on Wednesday 2 August 2006 at 1:27 pm

The only thing I can think of is that Alexander needs to be MVP of the Super Bowl.  Alexander won the NFL MVP last season and he set a league record for rushing TDs (27).  The last two seasons Alexander has rushed for 3,576 yards and 43 TDs.  For five years running Alexander has rushed for at least 1,175 yards and 14 TDs.  Alexander is an outstanding running back, and he really makes it alot easier on Matt Hasselbeck to succeed.  Alexander has played in 96 games (76 starts) and has rushed for 7,817 yards (4.6 ypc) and 89 TDs.  He has also caught 188 passes for 1,387 yards and 11 TDs.

Maurice Morris is an excellent back-up that could start for many teams.  I’m sure he’s counting down the days until he can sign somewhere where he can start, and cash in like Lamont Jordan did in Oakland.  Morris has played in 58 games (3 starts) and has rushed for 806 yards (4.7 ypc) and a TD.  He also has caught 21 passes for 158 yards and a TD.

Josh Scobey is a career back-up/kick returner.  Scobey has played in 43 games (has never started) and has rushed for 89 yards (3.3 ypc).  He also has caught 19 passes for 200 yards.

The Seahawks have the best pure runner in the league in Alexander and one of the top back-ups in the league in Morris.  Things are looking good in the Northwest Pacific.
