The Seahawks made a smart move in bringing back Bobby Engram. He’s a tough receiver that isn’t scared to do the dirty work over the middle of the field. He only played in 7 games (6 starts) last season and he caught 24 passes for 290 yards (12.1 avg) with 1 TD catch. Look for him to improve on those numbers if he stays healthy.
The Seahawks have signed a TE that can actually catch a pass which will be a change for QB Matt Hasselbeck. Pollard played in 15 games last season for the Detroit Lions and he caught 12 passes for 100 yards (8.3 avg). Look for Pollard to be an improvement over Jerramy Stevens.
The Seahawks have re-signed “Pork Chop” Womack and he will compete for the starting job at left guard this season. He only played in 9 games (all starts) last season because of injury. Womack has played in 61 games in his NFL career (all with the Seahawks) and he’s started 32 of them. Look for the 6′4″, 330 pound Womack to be the starter unless the Seahawks bring in someone better in free agency.
The Seahawks have signed safety Brian Russell to provide depth in their secondary. Russell played in 12 games last season for the Cleveland Browns and he made 51 tackles, had an interception, defensed 3 passes and forced a fumble. Don’t expect big things out of Russell as he’s a tad slow, misses tackles and gets burned deep often.
The Hawks gave Grant a 6 year, $30 million dollar contract to come in and start for them. He played in all 16 games last season for the Jacksonville Jaguars and he made 60 tackles, had 2 interceptions, defensed 5 passes and recovered a fumble. This was a good move for the Seahawks as they continue to rebuild their defense.
