All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

HACKETT INTEREST MINIMAL: According to Seattle News Tribune reporter Frank Hughes the interest in free agent WR D.J. Hackett continues to be thin. His agent claims that Tampa Bay and Washington will be bringing him in for visits soon. As mentioned here yesterday we heard the Redskins were waiting to see what happened with Bryant Johnson in Buffalo before making a decision on a Hackett visit. Either way it looks like Hackett's injury situation last year is hurting him. I will say that he does play up to his size, meaning he does play big. Some opinions I've heard from some NFC sources about Johnson is that although he is big, he doesn't always play big and take full advantage of his size and strength. Truthfully I haven't seen enough of his games to make that assessment myself, but I've heard that more than once about him. ---
i would much rather have hackett than johnson, and the fact that he is not getting much press right now is great.. because if we could get hacket for what wilford signed for, that could be a HUGE steal.

I'd much rather have Hackett than Johnson. When Hackett plays he's productive, so if he can be brought in cheap then I'd be more than happy to take a chance on him.
I really don't know about that. We were also told last year that he was preppeng us to have DiG to start over Poz.
he was- but fortunately Poz stepped it up and it didn't happen. Chris Brown is employed DIRECTLY by the Buffalo Bills- he doesn't get to say anything without toeing the corporate line.
I just spoke with D.J. Hackett's agent, Kevin Robinson, who said that his client still has an interest in rejoining the Seahawks, depending on where things go in free agency. Obviously, Hackett's injuries have cooled the interest in him on the open market and he has had no visits to any teams so far. There is an internet report that Buffalo could be interested in Hackett if their talks with Bryant Johnson fall apart, but for now it appears that Hackett is in a wait-and-see mode with Seattle as a fallback.
[More:]
One thought that I will float is that perhaps it is in everybody's best interest for Hackett to sign a one-year deal with the Seahawks. In that way, the Hawks get a player who will feel the need to prove something to everybody during his contract year, and Hackett gets the opportunity to show everybody that he can stay healthy and be productive. That may be a better option for him than taking a long-term contract somewhere else that he thinks is beneath him, then being unhappy with his deal if he does become a high-quality receiver. Of course, that also forces Hackett to give up some of the guaranteed money that I'm sure he was looking forward, but that is where he stands because of his history of injuries.
This one could be drawn-out, but I think the Seahawks feel comfortable whether he goes elsewhere or re-signs because of their three young guys.
