Jimmy Graham committed to blocking on runs to help Seahawks

The native of North Carolina who played basketball and football for the University of Miami just learned to land a seaplane, a de Havilland Beaver.

“Oh, the flying’s been incredible”, the licensed pilot said. I’ve been to the San Juan Islands, the Hood Canal, all the good stuff, the Olympic Mountains. “There’s really no surprises if you watch us”. He’s been a great part of this team.

This wasn’t the first time Future got upset about Russell Wilson’s bond with the baby.

What else can you say about Jimmy Graham other than he’s a stud? He stands for exactly what we love about this game and being a Seahawk and playing for us.

They call themselves the “Bash Brothers”, a nod to the Mighty Ducks movies from the ’90s and not the tandem of Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco from the ’80s.

But, at the end of the day, this is her decision to make.

With all of the extensions, the Seahawks are pushing closer and closer to the cap. And the opener at St. Louis is still 51/2 weeks away.

“What an exciting addition for a club and everyone can feel it”, coach Pete Carroll said.

Still, all of the big contracts are heavily back-loaded, and the Seahawks do have a little bit of room to work with still. “We’re thrilled about it”. Even in a run first offense.

Five more Seahawks are on the PUP/NFI list to begin camp. That’s 25th-most often in the league in that span.

Because Drake and Meek Mill’s beef wasn’t enough, we’ve apparently got more rappers in a fight.

The Seahawks defense was one of the better fantasy defenses previous year.

“I’m blocking here. Out there the last few I was pretty banged up so midway through the year I kind of stopped blocking”, Graham told reporters Monday.

Graham’s 355 catches and 46 touchdowns overall are the most by a tight end in the league since 2011.

Brian Allee-Walsh recalled some of the epic fights in Saints training camps over the years. (The Seahawks also have tight ends Anthony McCoy, Cooper Helfet and RaShaun Allen competing for roster spots.). In the slot. Out wide. The Seahawks were hoping to get a cap number around $5 million for Wilson and $3.5 million for Wagner. John Carlson had 55 that year.

The one major concern with paying Wagner top dollar is the matter of keeping the core of the franchise intact. He said, among many other things, that the battle for the starting center job is sorting itself out quickly and that he expects it to settle soon.

Seattle can take a page from Baltimore, who graced Flacco with a huge contract back in 2013 and have finished third on their own division in consecutive seasons with an 18-14 record over that span. The Ravens had to reshuffle money to afford Flacco’s contract and that maneuver has cost them the team depth that helped them compile a three-year record of 34-14 between 2010 and 2012 to go along with their title trophy.

“I know in the red zone, that’s just what I’ve always done”. There’s a lot of matchup problems. Not just to run but to throw. The team appeared to make a concerted effort to deploy Miller’s high-end speed without overworking him, handing him the ball 19 or fewer times in all 16 games. Perhaps he’s just sticking by his pal Future but surely the “I Bet” singer knows that Wilson is the right guy to bring around their son. If your signal caller comes up big in January then he needs to be paid like it.
