In 2011, the Seahawks finished in the bottom 10 in sacks, so the front office chooses this 6-5, 310 pound pass-rushing tackle/end to help take some pressure off Chris Clemons. Devon Still had a fantastic 2011 campaign and is the top consensus player on...

I'd argue that the decision won't be a difficult one come April. The Seahawks came alive on the defensive side in 2011, holding nine of their last 10 opponents under 23 points and ranking in the top-15 in both pass and run defense. The nucleus, which...

They have several guys who are really good: [Brandon] Mebane, [Red] Bryant, [Alan] Branch. And Chris Clemons is probably one of the 50 best players in the NFL, and most people have never heard of him. He used to play for the Redskins. That's crazy.

Ideally you want the guy playing in aggressive pass-rushing situations and helping to seal an edge against the run. The Seahawks currently use a hybrid 4-3 with a lot of 3-4 tendencies. There's scope to introduce even more 3-4 sets to this scheme,...
