Welcome Seahawks fans! Seahawks Forever is where I get to take all my passion, knowledge and insight into the Seattle Seahawks and roll it into one. I've been covering the team in one form or another since 1991, as a television journalist, web writer and podcaster. 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. Go Hawks!!

Brett Kollmann from The Film Room - Breaking down the Seahawks draft.... and more!
If you've ever seen any of Brett Kollmann's content (and if you haven't, you SHOULD) you'll know what an "elite ball-knower" he is. Whether he's breaking down all-22 tape or looking at broader issues, Brett has his finger on the pulse of the entire league.
In this episode, I get to pick Brett's brain a little bit and get his thoughts on how the Seahawks did in the just-concluded draft, as well as their division opponents.
But that's NOT all! Other topics include....
The selection of Michael Penix Jr at #8 to Atlanta
Where do the QB's of the NFC West rank in regards to the league's best?
What does the selection of one particular Seahawk draft pick tell us about the style of offense Seattle intends to play?
A sleeper day 3 Seattle pick he particularly likes
And hear him gush about Seahawk legend Walter Jones....

REACTION: Seahawks select Texas DT Byron Murphy II with 16th pick
What if I told you the Seattle Seahawks had a chance to select the best defensive tackle in the entire draft at pick 16? Would you have stayed there and picked, or still wanted to trade down to accumulate more selections?
Well, John Schneider chose to do the former, adding Murphy to Mike Macdonald's defensive front.
What does the 21 year old have to offer? And what might the rest of the draft look like for the Hawks?
Listen in to find out - including a fresh mock draft simulating what the next two days may end up looking like when all is said and done at the draft in Detroit.

Seahawks out of money? Current status of their 2024 and 2025 salary cap, and what they can do to fix it
The budget has gotten tight for GM John Schneider and the Seattle Seahawks. With less than $2 million in available salary cap space this year, and not much more than that looking ahead to 2025 either, some major decisions will need to be made in the coming days and months. In fact, they'll need to adjust some contracts or jettison a few players just to sign any players taken in this weekend's NFL draft!
Should fans be concerned?
Who better to break it all down than Curtis Allen, who does such a fantastic job analyzing this (among other things) for Rob Staton's Seahawks Draft Blog.
Curtis will update us on the Seahawks payroll situation, and provide some answers as to just how they can manage it all this year and next.

Customer Reviews
Report from Denmark
Many thanks for bringing the latest news on Seahawks. I especially enjoy the preview and recaps of the games. Perhaps you could put in a Seahawks quiz on every episode. Or perhaps a ranking show, where you evaluate the different positions and coaching after every game.
All the best from Mads - from Denmark
