The Seahawks have signed 27-year old WR Brandon Jones.  Jones played in 8 games (0 starts) for the Niners last season and he caught 1 pass for 18 yards.  Jones has now played in 59 games (27 starts) in his five years in the NFL and he has caught 113 passes for 1,398 yards (12.4 avg) with 9 TD grabs.  He has also carried the ball 6 times for 76 yards (12.7 ypc) in his career to date.  Jones could be a decent #4 or #5 WR for the Seahawks in 2010 so I like this signing for them.

The Seahawks just didn’t have it on defense in this game and it cost them.  Matt Hasselbeck looked sharp on Saturday Night as he completed 11 of 15 passes for 127 yards with 1 TD pass in this game.  Charlie Whitehurst wasn’t near as sharp as he was in the pre-season opener for the Seahawks as he completed 9 of 20 passes for 73 yards with 1 TD pass and 2 INTs.  Leon Washington led the way on the ground for the Seahawks in this game with 19 yards rushing on 4 carries (4.8 ypc) with 1 TD run.  T.J. Houshmandzadeh led the way in the passing game for the Seahawks on Saturday with 4 grabs for 60 yards (15.0 avg).  The Seahawks finished up with 75 yards rushing (4.2 ypc) and 197 yards passing in this game.

Safety Lawyer Milloy led the way for the Seahawks’ D in this game with 7 tackles.  Rookie 7th round pick (DE) Dexter Davis also had a solid game with 6 tackles, 1 sack and 2 QB hits.  The Packers finished up with 174 yards rushing (4.5 ypc) and they also passed for 247 yards.

The Seahawks have dealt 24-year old DE Lawrence Jackson to the Lions for an undisclosed 2011 draft pick.  Jackson played in 16 games (10 starts) for the Seahawks last season and he had 32 tackles, 4 sacks, 2 passes defensed and 2 forced fumbles.  He finishes his career with the Seahawks having played in 32 games (24 starts) in which he had 61 tackles, 6.5 sacks, 2 passes defensed and 2 forced fumbles.  Jackson was a Seahawks first round pick in 2008 so they are essentially giving up on him as the pick the Lions are sending is presumed to be a late rounder.

The Seahawks have signed 28-year old DT Amon Gordon.  Gordon last played in the NFL in 2008 with the Titans.  He has played in 13 games (4 starts) in his NFL career and he has 29 tackles and 1 forced fumble.  It never hurts to add a guy like Gordon and give him a chance to get his career revived.

The Seahawks have lost OT Ray Willis indefinitely due to knee surgery.  Willis started all 16 games for the Seahawks last year.  He has played in 44 games (26 starts) in his five year NFL career.  Willis was likely to be the first tackle off the bench for the Seahawks this season so they need him to get healthy soon.
