Seahawks Sign Chester Pitts

Seahawks have signed former Texans guard Chester Pitts according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Wonder if he'll start at RG, and Unger will be moved to Center... Interesting signing.

I say it's for depth.

Pitts is a starter....Might be for depth right now but....I go with #ONE on that..By Kickoff Weekend, they'll move Max because you don't get a Chester Pitts to bench.

I would say it depends on how well he recovers from his micro fracture surgery...

 

[#ONE]

Total guess here, but I am assuming he's coming along well (injury wise) and the front office knows it. I don't see logic in signing him if they were worried he wasn't going to recover.

If Pitts does start I don't see them using Unger as a backup.

Okung | Hamilton | Unger | Pitts | Locklear

...Looks a lot better than last year.

Like your line up Phaze, and having Spencer/Willis as back ups will be essential as we always have injuries on the line. Now Spencer getting some gaurd time last year might seem like a good idea by the old regime.
I love the vets on either side like this:



Rookie - Vet - Sophmore - Vet - Journeyman

Thing about Pitts that most appeals to me is his versitility.

He's played both tackle and guard for the Texans in his career. Even if he serves as nothing more than a depth player at either guard or tackle, he's still valuable and puts the Seahawks in a better spot with their line than they were at last season.
