rajncajn Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Hawks fans, do you think Seattle will now try to deal Alexander or will he remain for another season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonehand Posted February 22, 2005 Author Share Posted February 22, 2005 Hawks fans, do you think Seattle will now try to deal Alexander or will he remain for another season? 707367[/snapback] I think the Hawks will quietly shop him to see where the best deals lie, and what works best with their plans to bolster the D. Whether he gets dealt, IMO, depends on his attitude about things. I think the whole "back stabbing" comment really ticked off a lot of the veterans, so if he is very disgruntled about about his sitch, or gives indications that he will hold out, I can see him getting dealt. You know Rajn, either way I'm happy. Alexander had his best year ever LY in a contract year, so I like to have him playing for something. But if he's gone and we get a first rounder, that's cool too. I believe that with the Seahawks line intact we can still be competitive with someone else in the backfield, if it comes to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampnuts Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 What a day for us Hawks fans!!! This is the best possible situation for the team. Hass is signed with Alexander gettin' the tag. With the glut of available backs and the deep draft class I doubt anyone will cough up big $ plus two first rounders for the rights to Shaun. Now go sign Derrick Mason!!!!!

rajncajn Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Can you say DOLPHINS? 707865[/snapback] Why pay out the ass for Alexander when you will likely get Cedric Benson with the 1.2 pick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marauders11 Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Why pay out the ass for Alexander when you will likely get Cedric Benson with the 1.2 pick? 707877[/snapback] or Ronnie Brown, or Cadillac , etc. etc. This is a fairly deep draft for RB's- Miami would be wise to go the young stud route and build around him.

Egret Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Good news for the 'hawks. Sign a WR. Get Hasselbeck some targets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Why pay out the ass for Alexander when you will likely get Cedric Benson with the 1.2 pick? 707877[/snapback] Well, they have the cap room, and this only gives Alexander a one year lease. They may well still draft an RB, getting ready for next year, when alexander probably walks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHook Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Can you say DOLPHINS? 707865[/snapback] They don't have the cap room. They are $17 million over the cap now as it is. Dolphins can cut Fiedler, Seau, and Boston to get underneath, but that still doesn't clear enough cash for a blockbuster RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
