Quote:Here's a breakdown of Seattle's first year of the rebuild that supposedly we're molding ourselves after.

 

Positions with the SAME starter in 2009 and 2010

 

QB-Hasselbeck, TE-Carlson, C-Spencer, T-Locklear, DT-Mebane, DT-Cole, LB-Hawthorne, LB-Curray, CB-Truffant

 

Positions they changed and how (notice the UPGRADES)

 

RB-Lynch (traded for him), WR-Buttler(on the 2009 roster), WR-Williams (Free Agency), DE-Clemons, Balmer (Free Agency), LB-Tatupu ( brought a guy up on the depth chart already on the roster), DB-Jennings and Miloy (already on the roster in 2009 moved up depth chart), Thomas (rookie)

 

So let's review of the 9 positions Seattle had new starters 4 where guys on the roster they moved up, 1 was a rookie, and 4 where free agents brought in from other teams.

 

The majority of Seattle 2010 team was on the roster in 2009, thus they worked with what they had until they could find upgrades the opposite of blowing it up.

 

So I guess Meester, Rackley, Nwaneri, Posluszny, Allen, Lowery, Mincey, Alualu don't fit your notion of veteran role players? Because that's exactly what they are. I think you missed this point. This is year 1 of the rebuild. How many quality starters would you like them to find in 1 year?

Wrong. Never said that actually. I said in a post on Page 3 he hasn't played well and that we would be moving on from him. Read the thread.
