Breaking News from WUSA channel 9 in DC. Report says the Seahawks will give the Commanders a late round draft choice, but also reported they will move Seneca Wallace to TE? ( is a mistake because he is too small). I think it is a bigger mistake for Seattle to give up a draft pick for a QB that may be released anyway. Just some info, as i watch the live Gametrack form the Cowboys' game. Let's get the regular season started!!

Or maybe they learned their lesson from last year, when Holmgren refused to sign a veteran backup QB(i.e. Garcia)-look what happened when Matt went down. Otherwise, they would have went back to the Super Bowl.

To me-this is a GOOD move on their part.

Wallace just became the first 5-9, 200 lb TE in league history.

(Just kidding. They must be making him a WR.)

Brunell is also returning to Washington where he played his college ball.

I agree. This part of the exclusive report has to be wrong!

Mike Holmgren used Wallace as a slot receiver in that NFC Title game a couple of years ago-he was effective.

I hope this is true, but it sounds very dicey. Wallace at TE - LOL.

That would mean Jordan Palmer would be their #2. If Campbell goes down, oh man, bad things will ensue.

Brunell is worth more than a late round pick simply based on the inexperience behind Campbell.

Seneca, (who I love as an ISU fan), would do nothing for this club. Although, Brunell will do nothing for this club either, so I see it as a lose lose in this case. ( by the way, the last time we did this type of trade, we traded taylor jacobs for mike rumph... who we later released... who later had a pro bowl season... so who knows what is really up with thid crazy NFL world.) This is just a move by chances that most of the time never works... so no need to get worked up about it.

I figured Collins was their #2 and Palmer 3.

You can't have Seneca. They're thinking of moving him to another position. You got a draft pick. That's probably confusing.

:p:

Sorry all, forgot about Collins. He'd definitely be #2 you Spears' Apologists.

Wallace has played a bit of WR for the Hawks -- he started for them last year and was decent. I would expect he'd be the 3rd QB and WR for them.

He's playing QB for them right now against Oakland -- he started at QB -- that tells me that he's got a role as a QB for them this season.

Actually, Todd Collins will be our backup right now ( who actually started last game). JAson Palmer actually hasnt gotten much playing at all during the preseason. If anything, I think this is how our situation will be seen:

1) Jason Campbell
2) Todd Collins / Mark Brunell ( which I see the loser being cut )
3) Jordan Palmer

Otherwise, I see Palmer being placed to the practice squad, making Collins / Brunell being our backups (interchangable)... and leaving no problems with "depth" at the backup position.

I would go no where as near as saying I feel comfortable with any of our backups taking over for campbell, but I think it is a little better then what you may let on

Yeah, I totally spaced on Collins.
