The Seattle Seahawks are coming into a retooling part. It’s not fairly a full-on rebuild however there’s sufficient motion inside the group on and off the sector that the crew will look fairly totally different subsequent season. It was introduced on Tuesday that the Seahawks can be releasing three-time Professional Bowl security, Jamal Adams. Trying again at his 4 seasons within the Pacific Northwest, and what the Seahawks gave up in buying the previous All-Professional, it’s protected to say Seattle didn’t get what they bargained for.
Giving up first-round picks for anybody within the NFL is an enormous deal however doing it for a powerful security is much more of a danger. On the time Adams had simply completed his first three years within the league with the Jets with back-to-back Professional Bowl choices and his one All-Professional look. His first 12 months in Seattle went just about in accordance with plan as he made his third consecutive Professional Bowl.
Adams even had 9.5 sacks that first season with the Seahawks and hasn’t recorded one other since. As a security who made his identify taking part in within the field, Adams’ first 4 years within the NFL had been a testomony to this serving to to cease the run and executing security blitzes. From 12 months one to 4 Adams’ sack whole elevated every season.
During the last couple of years, Adams has handled accidents which have price him time on the sector. However even when he’s been on the sector Adams hasn’t regarded like the identical participant that arrived in Seattle in 2020. Zero sacks in three years after practically 10 in 12 months one is why followers within the Emerald Metropolis have rejoiced upon listening to the information about Adams. Seattle can be parting methods with their different three-time Professional Bowl security, Quandre Diggs.
So, the retooling is in full impact particularly when factoring Pete Carroll being ousted and new head coach Mike Macdonald stepping in. Deciding to stay with Geno Smith some time longer is especially what retains this from being referred to as a rebuild. However the crew was capable of get Smith to restructure his deal. With free company and the draft across the nook, it seems like Macdonald and the Seahawks could have a number of extra methods up their sleeves.
