I've wanted to do a Seattle Seahawks franchise for a quite a few years and found it very appealing to do when Russell Wilson left town and now that Pete Carroll has I thought a good point would be after free agency. When I haven't done an AFC franchise, it's been the Saints, Cardinals and Vikings. All dome teams. Let's have some Seattle weather at Lumen Field. I'm really hyped for this. My Steelers one will continue. It will take a backseat for now.

Re: Reviving the Boom | A Seattle Seahawks franchise story

My first signing of my Seattle Seahawks career. Depth signing though.

Re: Reviving the Boom | A Seattle Seahawks franchise story

Hoping that he can play in some packages and generate some production. Cardinals misused him. Giants didn't play him enough. Let's see how I will play him.

Edit: It's a 1 year deal not 2. Sorry for the typo.

I think that's it for free agency, I'll move onto the draft now.

Getting my Draft Board ready. Marvin Harrison and Malik Nabers falling so far.

Re: Reviving the Boom | A Seattle Seahawks franchise story

My favourite prospect to take for the Seahawks. Would I have taken Marvin Harrison if he fell? Tempting but I don't think so. Was always Powers or Fautanu.
