Sea Hawkers Podcast
Legal tampering (aka NFL Free Agency) kicks off this week with Seahawks fans bracing for potential departures. We may learn as soon as Monday whether we'll say our goodbyes to Kenneth Walker, Rashid Shaheed and others as the market tries to pull what they can from Seattle's championship roster. Safety Coby Bryant, by some reports, could be set to return. How does Kam Curl’s deal set the bar? And what would be the reasoning for keeping Bryant with Ty Okada playing well off the bench in his absence? Seattle reportedly called the Eagles about Jalen Carter, but what does it really mean? Finally,...

Free agency nears for the Seattle Seahawks after the NFL Combine. In NFC West news, the Rams acquiring All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie from the Chiefs means they're going to continue to go all in. The Seahawks roster squeeze will be felt on special teams after reports that contract talks with return ace Rashid Shaheed aren’t close. It's very likely he hits the market and we'll have to wonder if his special-teams value and his complementary receiver role can be filled by Tory Horton, through free agency or the draft. The discussion also covers Seattle’s decision to allow Jake Bobo to test...

Our Seattle Seahawks are kicking off free agency with five starters and two more key players potentially hitting the open market in two weeks at the start of the new league year. We run through some of the challenges general manager John Schneider faces with keeping each player and take a look at some of the projected salaries by The Athletic and Pro Football Focus. Kenneth Walker may have the biggest gap between how Seahawks fans would value him vs how he may be valued by another team, but a close second could be Boye Mafe. Mafe is considered one of the top 5 edge rushers in free agency, but...

NFL free agency is about to heat up and our Seattle Seahawks have some big looming decisions. Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker is one of those big decisions. We discuss four reasons it makes sense in this offseason to pay K9 and keep him in Seattle. But, what's the right contract value? Are there other free agents who might be a surprising bargain? Just how much will our 2022 second-round pick get on the open market? Lastly, would we feel comfortable spending another 2nd round pick on a RB in the draft? Support the show Get in the Flock!

New Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Fleury did the press conference and media show tour after being hired this week. What did his answers reveal about his philosophy and does he have a true understanding of what he wants his offense to be? Fleury emphasized a commitment to running the football, including a red-zone approach built on being able to “run it in,” while also suggesting the scheme won’t look drastically different from what fans have seen. We pick out some other stand-out moments to discuss and debate. Support the show Get in the Flock! Visit Or visit our website...

The Seahawks found their new offensive coordinator this week, hiring former 49ers assistant Brian Fleury. We frame our discussion by focusing on three different categories: what we know, what we think we know, and what we don’t know about our newest coach. We detail Fleury's coaching background, address the fact that Mike Macdonald is on his third OC in as many seasons, and how the team is maintaining continuity in several key areas. Additional coaching notes include Daniel Stern and Zachary Orr joining the staff from Baltimore. Support the show Get in the Flock! Visit Or visit our website...

Kenneth Walker kicked off his campaign for MVP early and the offensive line established their physicality on the first play of the game. Some outstanding plays by the Patriots defense kept Seattle out of the end zone in the...

Our Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl Champions once again! The defense was on point from the start of this game as the New England Patriots struggled to move the chains throughout the first half. The defensive line dominated with six sacks and Drake Maye was pressured into two interceptions. Uchenna Nwosu returned one of those two interceptions for a touchdown that looked like it would seal the victory for Seattle. On the offensive side, Kenneth Walker delivered a performance worthy of his Super Bowl MVP honor. He set the tone with a run to the outside to start the game and added in some...
info_outlineSeason two of the Sea Hawkers Podcast starts with training camp and what better news to start off the latest season than to welcome Marshawn Lynch back to the team after his holdout. Adam and Brandan talk about what Lynch means to this team, how he's not a replaceable piece of the offense like a certain ESPN reporter may think, and why it was important for the team to hold the line with his contract in the way they did.
Michael Robinson talked about his concerns the team may not have the veteran leadership in place to handle some of the big money deals that have transpired over the offseason. The guys provide their reactions and talk about if Robinson's presence could have prevented Lynch's holdout situation.
One guy who stands out to Adam so far in training camp is Phil Bates. We discuss the wide receiver group as a whole and how they're going to be "just fine" without Golden Tate and Sidney Rice. Of concern so far in training camp is losing Anthony McCoy and Jesse Williams so soon. Are we going to have to deal with another Kellen Davis situation at tight end this year?
After visiting a few weeks back on 12 for 12s Radio, Adam and Brandan welcome Paul Beyer to the Sea Hawkers Podcast to discuss Marshawn Lynch, training camp, and a recent interview on Paul's show with the guys who want to "Build the Tip."
The NFL commissioner and NBA player Kevin Love are called to carpet and dressed down in the "Do Better" segment. Texans running back Arian Foster and Seahawks GM John Schneider are celebrated in the "Better at Life" segment to close the show.
