I have decided to add a
new blog that I will write about sports only. I know that there are those how
may want to read only about my stories concerning my life both past and present
and others who may only want to read about sports. Depending what is going on
in sports and my life I will likely right about three times a week. I will
write how I see things going on in sports. The main reason is that there are so
many out there writing about sports.
Now continuing on; the
Seattle Seahawks made a trade on Tuesday March 10 with the New Orleans Saints.
They traded center Max Unger along with a first round pick to the Saints for
tight end Jimmy Graham and a fourth round pick. I know it came as a surprise to
most including myself. Jimmy Graham is the best tight end in the National
Football League that turned out to be available. I am sure the Saint fans were totally shocked
with the trade.
Last week the Seahawks
released starting tight end Zach Miller mainly because he failed his physical.
He missed most of the season with an injury so most of us figured they would go
and get another tight end in a trade or free agency but this was a surprise for
sure. What makes the Seahawks better teams not only were they looking for a
tight end it gave them most likely the best receiver on the Seahawks as well?
Jimmy Graham maybe a tight end but the Saints often used him like a wide receiver.
Though the Seattle has some good receivers they do not have a number one type
receiver on their roster. So the Seahawks in many ways have received two
players in one. It allows the Seahawks to have a number one receiver to the team
who they can go to on any downs. Also, will allow Doug Baldwin who is the top
wide receiver to be used on third down situations which he is the best at;
another thing the Seahawks have another tight end Luke Willson who can become
more effective receiver with Jimmy Graham on the team.
This trade may not only
make Seahawks a lot better offense it maybe the best in the league. Even if it
is not the best the improvement on the offense along with having the best
defense in the league have the Seahawks favored again to the Super Bowl.
I will be writing more
about the NFL and the Seahawks in the weeks and months ahead before the season
begins. We will have to see if they pull out any more surprises. Of course, I
will be writing about the Seattle Mariners since baseball season is about ready
to start. Until next time enjoy your time.
