Field Gulls: for Seattle Seahawks fans

We've spent the last month assessing the Seattle Seahawks draft and overall offseason moves, but what about their 3 divisional opponents? I've enlisted the help of Justin Melo from The Draft Network to take an in-depth dive into each of their opponents offseason hauls, from the draft to free agency (and trades.) Who came out on top in the NFC West's version of the "offseason olympics?"

After a slow start in Mike Macdonald's first year as head coach, 2024 saw the Seahawks defense grow into a formidable force by season's end. Now, the entire unit returns, plus a few intriguing additions. So now the question is, just HOW GOOD could this unit be? And with the Seahawks offense undergoing significant changes, will it be good ENOUGH for Seattle to contend in a stacked NFC West? Seattle Overload co-host Griffin Sturgeon joins me to break it all down as very few experts can. ========================================================== Here’s how you can support the Seahawks Forever channel and me as an independent, full-time content creator: Become a paid member of the channel for exclusive perks and benefits! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg/join ZELLE: dviens08@gmail.com CASHAPP: https://cash.app/$DViens08 Buy me a coffee, or a beer! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dviens08w SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg Hit the SUPER THANKS button!

Check out this wide-ranging discussion with myself and Casey McLain of the Poor Sports podcast about the Seattle Seahawks running back room. When accounting for age, talent, production, projection, and salary cap hit, is it the best and deepest in the league?  Who are the best fits for the new offensive scheme, and what does the FUTURE of the RB room look like?  ===================================================================================================== Here’s how you can support the Seahawks Forever channel and me as an independant, full time content creator: Become a paid member of the channel for exclusive perks and benefits! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg/join For direct donations where I keep 100% of the proceeds: ZELLE: dviens08@gmail.com CASHAPP: https://cash.app/$DViens08 SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg Buy me a coffee, or a beer! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dviens08w Join YouTube Premium!

When the Seattle Seahawks signed former Rams great Cooper Kupp in free agency, the move garnered it's fair share of criticism. Kupp was too old, too broken down, and too similar in style to Jaxon Smith-Njigba for it to work in Seattle, especially in the aftermath of DK Metcalf being traded to Pittsburgh. Leave it to Max Toscano to fill that argument full of holes. Max once again brings his unique intellect and insight to the show to explain precisely why JSN and Kupp can not only co-exist, but thrive together in Seattle. Stick around for the entire interview, as Max also explains how Seattle's young TE group has so much upside, and if there's ANY chance Cincinnati pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson might also be in play for the Seahawks. (Max writes about the Bengals for SI as well.)

Checking in on Mike Macdonald's second rookie mini-camp as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks and there were some stark differences between this one and his inaugural experience last year - namely, a highly-drafted QB!

With free agency and the NFL draft in the rear view mirror, we're all looking ahead to the 2025 NFL season with anticipation, and prognostication. And so far, the national media isn't looking too kindly on the Seattle Seahawks - consistently picking them not only to miss the playoffs, but to finish in the bottom half of the league. Why? Are they getting it wrong, or are we? =========================================================== Here’s how you can support the Seahawks Forever channel: Become a paid member of the channel for exclusive perks and benefits! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg/join Buy me a coffee, or a beer! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dviens08w SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg Join YouTube Premium!

Even before the NFL draft ends, teams are frantically working the phones trying to secure their class of players who fall through the cracks. The Seahawks have long been a team that believed in giving undrafted players opportunities, and it's paid off in spades with players like Doug Baldwin and Poona Ford in the past. Who stands out among this year's UDFA group? I present my 4 favorites, plus two BONUS picks. ========================================================= Thank you to our sponsor DUER!! “Built for DOING!” Get 20% off your order with DUER, active denim and lifestyle apparel at www.shopduer.com/FOREVER Here’s how you can support the Seahawks Forever channel: Become a paid member of the channel for exclusive perks and benefits! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg/join Buy me a coffee, or a beer! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dviens08w SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg
