The Seahawks teach their corners such a unique style that it makes it hard for veterans like Cary Williams to pick up.
I’m going to throw out a theory, and then I’m going to try to explain and defend my theory. The point isn’t to show that I’m right, but simply to raise an idea and work my way through it.
The theory: The way the Seahawks teach their corners — the technique — is so specific and unique that it is best to avoid bringing in veteran corners and instead stick with home-grown guys.
I thought about this last year when the Seahawks released veteran corner Cary Williams, and I thought about it again when the Seahawks re-signed corner Jeremy Lane to a four-year contract on Wednesday.
