Brandon Cain - Hawks Nest host, with his thoughts on the Seahawks roster and upcoming draft plans
Brandon Cain of the outstanding Hawks Nest podcast joins me with his in-depth analysis of the Seahawks offseason so far, including:
The outlook at guard. Do any of the remaining free agents fit? What type of athletic profile are they looking for and which draft prospects would make sense.
What do some of the Hawks offseason moves say about their potential draft plans?
How does he feel about the linebacker group in Seattle, and who might they be targeting at that position in the draft.
Is Sam Howell the long-term answer at QB, and could they still be considering Michael Penix in the first round?
A potential curveball for their first round pick.

News, Notes and Rumors from the NFL Owners Meetings
So much to react to from the annual NFL owners meetings this week:
New comments from Mike Macdonald - what are his goals in trying to build the defense, what did he see in Sam Howell during his time in Baltimore that excites him, and big news concerning the offensive line.
John Schneider may be ready to add a veteran guard to the roster, who could it be? I've got two names to watch for.
Rule changes! One I love, and one that concerns me.
And based on everything we're hearing, I give you a BONUS owner's meeting mock draft!

Is the Seahawks roster BETTER today than it was to finish the 2023 season?
The Seahawks missed the playoffs in 2023, ushering in a new era as legendary head coach Pete Carroll was replaced by young first-timer Mike Macdonald.
There's a lot of work to be done as the team entered free agency with fewer players under contract than any team in the NFL. But as we assess things now just one week after the start of free agency, is it possible Seattle's overall roster is actually better than the one that finished the season in Arizona?
I'll make the argument that yes, it is, and with the draft still ahead it has a chance to get even more talented.
Join me on a position-by-position tour of the roster as I make my case.

What's up with the Seahawks offensive line?! Should we be concerned?
College football scout and owner of The Football Scout channel on YouTube, Sanjit T joins the show today to weigh in on the state of the Seattle Seahawks offensive line.
Now that the most pressing needs have been addressed through free agency on defense and at tight end, the offensive line remains as a perceived weakness among fans and analysts, particularly on the interior.
Is there cause for concern about the lack of experience at center and guard? With very little salary cap space remaining, are there still moves the Hawks can make to address it, or will it have to be a priority in next month's NFL draft?
Sanjit shares his thoughts on a couple young players he sees as potential long-term starters that the team already has on the roster, plus an under-the-radar name to consider - and we take a look ahead at some possible fits at guard in the draft.
