Seahawks 'definitely will' run the football more after pass-heavy 2016

[Mackeyser]

Looking at Phillips video below, leads me to believe that Ogletree might be better off at Barron's projected spot and someone else should be playing Ogletree's projected spot.

Based on his description...

LDE: Aaron Donald
NT: Michael Brockers
RDE Dominic Easley
SSLB: Connor Barwin
Mike: Alec Ogletree
Mo: Mark Barron
WSLB: Robert Quinn

I say this because Easley outplayed Westbrooks last year by not a small margin and he's more than fast enough to be the RDE. Easley next to Quinn is a very scary combo.

I can't imagine Donald being put at the nose (Ourlads has him there and I just can't see that happening. Not to mention their idea of our secondary depth is just...wrong). It makes MUCH more sense to put Donald at the LDE where he can play the 3 or 4 technique and not really change what he was doing last year.

Connor Barwin is the easiest to project. He's totally what we need at SSLB.

Hopes and prayers that Quinn is healthy. A healthy Quinn at the WSLB and this defense gets a whole lot scarier.

Ifedi should be solid. I like Joeckel as a RT or guard. Definitely think Pocic will help. And Tom Cable is an excellent O-Line coach.

I agree that Cable is a good coach but I don't think Ifedi is very good. How much can Pocic help on such a bad line? And Joeckel isn't good at any position IMO. Carroll's bread and butter was a good OLine when he arrived. Add Lynch and he had a recipe for success. He has gotten away from his staple.

Denver was 28th in rushing defense last year. And Lacy just met an off season weight clause at 253 according to Sirius NFL radio.

Seattle still has a suspect OL and no Marshawn Lynch. Let them run the ball. I don't fear Lacy or Rawls. They're not Lynch, and that Seattle OL won't do them any favors.

A good to great center can settle and stabilize an offensive line. Watch what Sullivan does for ours....
