Wow, really good signing. I think just as good as getting Harris as depth. Great great signing. Man he is talented enough to start :headbange

but on the other hand....did someone say Artis Hicks is still here? oh god please no

bring in tebow!!!!!!!!!!

If Kyle was smart he would urge Danny to pick up Cotchery.... Kellen and Cotchery had nice chemistry in 09.

I like Locklear...but would prefer more interior depth. Not convinced that Hicks can bounce back from his struggles in 2010

Isn't Hicks actually having a pretty good camp right now?

I like the signing as well. Didn't he play guard his first year in Seattle?

This is why I was asking about Blalock. If we had signed him, we could have used Chester (or Kory L) for depth and been good to go on the inside.

It still is nice to know that if a tackle goes down, we have a quality replacement. And if Locklear can play guard, as speculated above, that is icing on the cake.

I have no faith in Hicks, who from reports is having an uneven camp. I will have faith in Lichtensteiger when I have better reason for such faith.

Hadn't heard

[Dirtbag59]

So lets see right now it's

LT - Trent Williams
LG - Kory L.
C- Will Montgomery
RG - Chris Chester
RT - Jammal Brown

Backups (in no particular order) - Erik Cook, Selvish Capers, Clint Oldenburg, Will Smith, Sean Locklear, Xavier Fulton, Maurice Hurt, Artis Hicks

And yet something else I missed.

RB: Roy Helu (see above)
WR: Anthony Armstrong
WR: Leonard Hankerson
WR: Aldrick Robinson (will be Malcolm Kelly when healthy)
TE: Logan Paulsen
LT: Selvish Capers
LG: Willie Smith
C: Erik Cook
RG: Artis Hicks

That depth chart can't be completely accurate. They don't have Fred Davis or Reed Doughty listed. Has Horton starting at Safety(even if LL is injured)?...lol

It's not a depth chart. It's a list of the Most common groupings of first and second team offenses as observed in practices.

Yeah, basically. Just the groups of players that are taking the field and taking reps in 11 on 11.

Good depth... can start at RT if J. Brown is hurt (or playing bad). Hoping, Tatupu and Hayden sign soon.

[vallin21]

Also heard he was drafted as a G, so he could backup Litch at LG. IMO I don't buy he's just a "depth" guy. He was rated one of the Top Plass Blockers in the league last year. 2010 Pass Blocking Efficiency: Tackles | ProFootballFocus.com And according to this Seattle's O-Line had only a 28.29% of allowing pressure

I wouldn't read into this, but Locklear was ranked 7th for FA OT's

RT Competition w/ J. Brown?

Definetely not competition with Brown. I know Brown was hurt last year but with Jammal you're talking about a guy that was rated among the 5 best tackles in the league as recently as 2008. And all the film I've seen on him says the talk of him coming back to form near the end of last year are true.

Not to mention Brown got the big contract. Locklear is quality depth. Still in looking at that list of backups I'm a little uneasy about the group as a whole. Hopefully someone will emerge during the preseason among Cook, Capers, and Smith.
