Many fans of the Seattle Seahawks went into free agency with the belief that the team could possibly begin to rebuild some of the pieces that had been lost to age and the salary cap, looking for big splash acquisitions. That has yet to happen, and in fact the exact opposite has happened: the Seahawks front office has so far gone bargain shopping in working to rebuild the roster.
Many fans were fuming when word leaked out about the addition of tight end Ed Dickson, especially once it became known that Seattle had signed Dickson to a 3 year, $14M deal.
