Interesting in that this Seahawks article takes a cheap shot at the Olsen signing in the last paragraph.

Interesting that this player was a WR at LSU that converted to a TE, and was drafted as a TE and converted to a DE for the Hawks, where he played 22 snaps.

DAMN: "So, for now it’s best of luck to Sullivan with the Carolina Panthers, and maybe in a decade or so when he’s old and injury plagued, the Seahawks can bring him back and add him to the list of washed up former Panthers tight ends added in free agency."

It's not like there's anyone really standing between him on the PS and being our first string TE, as things go right now.

I read another piece on him--team player, great attitude, and we can assume, versatile.  But this may suggest a few things, and I am reading some foggy tea leaves here:

1. We want to address the TE position but we may realize that we probably cannot this year.

2.  We have multiple TE needs, and this guy will compete for a roster spot/special teams role.

3.  We value versatility--and he could be an H-back type that replaces Armah. 

4.  He has pictures of Fits at the Seahawks Christmas party.

1. Oh, we could make a big splash in the draft with TE, but we'd need to ride another season with Teddy.

2. True and he probably will, but it is a signal that we're probably done with the Ian Thomas project. (And he should have been good, we all wanted him to be so, but he just never made that leap).

3. Not sure we're looking to replace Armah, but even though I like the guy, not sure he's a top end Full/H-back.

4. Well, there are some pics that are just priceless. And some available for a price. Some available on a lifelong installment plan.

      That's a very incorrect statement right off the bat, coaches get fired for winning ugly all the time.  Every coach of a playoff team that then gets fired, got fired because they won ugly and didn't improve their players enough to win in the postseason. Guys like Andy Reid have been fired for "winning ugly" like you said, because they kept winning in spite of the improvement of their players. Also, "this is a fanbase starved for wins" is a statement I also don't agree with, I'm not "starved for wins", I'm "starved for a winning and contending franchise" which are two VERY different things. If the team and fans just want to win some games, then that's a loser mentality, sorry, but it is.  We should want to contend, not win a handful of games.  Every time this comes up I point back to the Lions the last 5 years or so.  They were losing games but improving every week while doing so a few years back.  THAT is how you improve as a franchise and move the needle towards contending, not winning games ugly.

      this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games that run counter to vast work......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues.
