I think the moves were necessary for the team to make. We needed to get younger and hungrier for the message of competing every day. I wished Bennett and Sherman would have stayed to end their careers, but we will welcome them back in retirement. It was time to reset, restart and get back to Seahawk ball. We are not far off from getting back there. Go Hawks!

I think they have been making a lot of moves and decisions recently that are not necessarily benefiting the team. If they’re trying to push them in a better direction, why get rid of the foundation of the team? So from what I’m seeing right now it’s not going in the best direction. I don’t know what their long term plans are for when the season starts up again, but if you want to have a better season you should keep working with those people who’ve been your building blocks.

Feels to like the Seattle Seahawks have committed at least or decided to rebuild the team a little bit. Last year most of their problems stemmed from Russell Wilson not being safe in the pocket, so he was inaccurate on the run and so now they have decided to go ahead and start pushing forward and rebuild the team on both sides of the ball, offense and defense

I think the Seahawks off season moves have been kind of scary, but I’m excited because I’m trying to see the team build itself around Russell Wilson, because for the past five years the team has been built around the defense. I’m excited to see what new pieces they’re going to add to the team. They had let go of Jimmy Graham, Paul Richardson, Bennett, Sherman, but again, I’m excited to see if the team can be better. Hopefully they will get better and help Wilson stay healthy because he’s been on his [backside] for the past five years.

I think it’s business they had too. Richard Sherman carried a high salary and Sheldon Richardson was going to be to expensive, I don’t think he was worth the price that he wanted. Michael Bennett, I really don’t know why they got rid of Micheal Bennett, could just be a cultural thing. Richard Sherman they had to get rid of him, he caused a lot of issues for the team last year. With Earl Thomas they’re thinking about trading him but out of anyone on the team I would keep Earl Thomas, he’s the one they can’t afford to let go, he’s still in his prime. And as far as acquisitions I don’t think they have enough money to play with.

“Lossing some of our established stars, see them in some cases go to other teams and probably in a couple of cases maybe retiring, unfortunately that’s a process that’s a fact of life in football as well as in life. Hopefully, they will get some people that are going to help us, take advantage of the people that we still have cause we still have some good players. And, that’s the home team and they’re the ones to root for.”
