State of the Seahawks

[Seahawks21]

Thanks for the info.

 

How did Bumpus look?

Honestly, he didn't look a lot different from most of the receivers that were trying to make the team. He looked fine against air, and didn't drop any balls like Kent and Courtney Green, but I don't remember him doing anything at all in the 7 on 7 or team portion. I am assuming that his only real shot to make the team is going to be on special teams, and I think they were going to do special teams in the second practice. I actually don't think he got any reps at all with the first unit. I actually liked Bumpus iin college, so I'm by no means a hater, but Butler, Obomanu and Kent seem to pretty much have the 4-6 WR spots locked up. I'm sure Bumpus still has practice squad eligibility, but realistically, barring injury, his best chance to get on the field this year is probably going to be with another team. I'm going back at least twice next week, so I'll be sure to keep an eye out and give you a more substantiial report on him.

Aaron Curry made his first appearance at Seahawks training camp this afternoon. A packed VMAC cheered and welcomed the rookie linebacker 15 minutes into practice. To make room the Seahawks have released WR Billy McMullen.
