So... Awesome that we signed the last 3 of our 7 picks taken, but how about the guys that will make an impact this year & possibly be starters by the end of the year. The men and women of Seahawks country demand the signing of OWEN Schmitt! Lets git-r-done! LOL

im alarmed by the fact we still have not signed the top picks. Is it true they are holding out? When will they sign? this is getting absurd!!! If they dont want to be hawks they should have let us know before the draft!!!

I got something...not new but I agree with the pres. of the NFL when he said paying new recruits millions, like Long at Miami paying $57 plus millions for five years and they don't know if he can make it in the NFL.....guess their ticket prises are going up?

Doug- you need to relax man. There are a bunch of rookies who haven't signed yet. They can't be holding out if there is nothing to hold out of. They were all at the mini camps. We are still 3 weeks away from training camp. Most rooks won't sign till right before. Only a couple of 1st rounders have even signed. Don't get your panties in a bunch.

I think y'all a bunch of fruit cakes....not really but let's do something? If any of you had a brain you'd be dangers ? If it wasn't for football you y'all wouldn't have a life? Any one saying awesome should be taken out and shot with a bb gun, right between the eyes balls!!! If I offended anybody I'm sorry..

The Seahawks are a class organization with an ownership committed to winning. (Unlike other former Seattle organization ownership groups.) No worries, this team will sign the best of the draft and get them prepared for the NFL season like always.

The Seahawks will never regret signing Brandon Coutu as a kicker. He was awesome at Georgia and has great range as a kicker. I am so glad he was signed because he deserves a chance to play in the NFL.
