    If we take Okung or Bulaga that would be a big time overhaul on the OL in one year. Going from:

    Branden Albert - LT
    Brian Waters - LG
    Rudy Niswanger - C
    Wade Smith/Mike Goff - RG
    Ryan O'Callaghan - RT

    to

    Russell Okung/Bryan Bulaga - LT
    Brian Waters - LG
    Casey Wiegmann - C
    Ryan Lilja - RG
    Branden Albert - RT

    I gotta say, this uncapped year is causing weird, crazy shit to happen. How fucked up is it that a 3rd string QB can get traded for a swapping of 2nd Rounders AND an additional 3rd Rounder AND sign a 2 year, $8 million dollar contract??

    Let me put it to you this way.....I don't give 2 shits about the NCAA Basketball Tourney due in part because I'm such an obsessed football nerd. I assure you that Charlie Whitehurst making that much money for doing nothin in the NFL is fucked up.

    well then I will take your knowledgeable view on this matter, and be appropriately aghast at how fucked up that is.

    I could call in and be all, "Yeah uhhh Westmar, first time long time. I was just um, I was wondering what your take was on the Seahawks dropping down 20 spots in the second round and then giving up a 3rd round pick in next year's draft for that 3rd string scrubum Charlie Whitehurst? And oh yeah, um also how they backed up like a big Brinks truck to his house and shelled out $8 million for him to hold a clipboard. Cuz I think that is wacked and um I was just curious what your take was. Thanks, love your show and I'll listen off the air."

    Thanks for the call, Omar. I think you've already answered your own question: Chuck Whitehurst sucks. Worst off season move yet in the NFL. Leave it to Pete Carroll, eh?

    Great call. Rack him, Rancho!

    How do we KNOW that? He hasn't played a down yet in the NFL. My question is, why so worked up over the trade for a clear backup QB?

    I think you've already answered your own question. It's weird that involved higher draft picks the way it did and like I said...I believe he got an $8 million dollar deal done, too. For a backup? Who hasn't played? WTF? They're obviously planning on Hasselbeck dying and turning the keys over to this guy for a season or two, do or die.

    As John Clayton said in his mailbag, fucked up things like this are directly related to QBs taken after the first round not being developed very well over the past several years. It's why they UFL is trying to work things out with the NFL as a sort-of farm league. I like the idea. But it won't happen, I'm guessing.
