The news that the Seahawks are scheduled to get a visit from veteran tight end Greg Olsen, now a free agent, only confirmed that the team thinks the same thing as every other observer — Seattle could use some help at that spot.
Like running back, tight end was another position for Seattle that looked one way when the season began and another when it ended, with a budding star suffering a season-ending injury in the process.
Second-year player Will Dissly was off to one of the best starts of any tight end in the NFL with 23 receptions for 262 yards and four touchdowns in the first five games before going down with an Achilles tendon injury early in the sixth game at Cleveland.
