What you'll find here is my analysis and opinions on what the team is doing, or SHOULD be doing, on the field and off. From the draft and free agency, to everything that happens once the pads go on..... join me and my roster of fellow journalists and analysts for what I feel is the best Seahawks content around.

The Outside Perspective - Assessing this draft class, and a full 7-round Seahawk mock, with Shane Hallam of The Draft Countdown
You can search far and wide and you'll have a hard time finding anyone who puts more work into the NFL draft than Shane Hallam, managing editor of draftcountdown.com
I've been following Shane since the early days of Twitter, and have always been struck by the great lengths he goes to, not only with each year's current draft, but future draft classes as well.
In this episode, I'll explore Shane's scouting process, we'll break down his Seahawks haul in his latest league-wide 7-round mock draft, and even take a look ahead to the 2025 draft class. Is Seattle's future QB in that group?
He'll also explain how a certain current Seahawk veteran is on his list of the top 20 evaluations he's ever done!

Seahawks prepare for draft as players begin OTA's and transition to their new coaching staff
As John Schneider prepares for his first NFL draft without Pete Carroll by his side, there's a "breath of fresh air" in the building as veteran defender Uchena Nwosu describes it.
How will this translate to what we see on the field, and how will Schneider approach the draft with a new coaching staff in place?
Long-time Seattle Seahawks beat reporter Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune joined me to share his thoughts on what he's seeing, hearing, and sensing as the Seahawks transition to a new era.

Seahawks TOP 150 Draft Board - w/ Patton Richard
Former Field Gulls contributor Patton Richard has been putting together Seahawks draft boards for years. The self-proclaimed "draft nerd" has finalized this year's board, and the result is a tiered list of potential Seahawk targets broken out by position and levels.
It's a great way to see just where the different pockets of value to try and understand why Seattle may be focusing on certain position groups at specific spots in the draft.
I'll take you through his board, ask about his process, and get some of his specific takes on why a few players at each position just scream "Seahawk!"

Customer Reviews
Great show!
Edited* This is my favourite Seahawks podcast. Dan has taken the top spot. His level headed analysis, great talking points an information is second to none. I hope you all enjoy this podcast as much as I do. I also love dans attitude towards some of the people he deals with on Twitter. Just real. Thanks Dan.
Listener from Perth Western Australia.
Top Notch
Dan Viens (along with Butch) and Jersey Murf are easily my favourite Seahawks content creators. Dan’s content is always thought provoking and also very well presented and organised. No click bait or “hot takes” here, just great Seahawks coverage and a great education in the great game of American Football.
Far from CATFISH!!!!
Just made the switch from the OG seahawkers podcast and so glad to see it hasn’t changed one bit. These guys are consistently better at life than Skip Baylis
You never disappoint, I’m from Sydney Australia and we obviously don’t get any real updates on the league at all throughout the whole year except from a handful of games played on the Tele. I tune in every time there’s a new episode to catch up on all things Seattle Seahawks, so thank you guys.
Go hawwwwwks!!!!
