Seahawks Set To Release S. Alexander

by DaveTroll on Apr 22, 2008 3:58 PM CDT

Danny O'Neil, of The Seattle Times, reports the Seattle Seahawks are close to releasing RB Shaun Alexander, according to a source close to the situation. The announcement could come as early as Tuesday, April 22.

NFL.com Adam Schefter is reporting the same thing.

It has been mentioned before of possibly picking him up for the Cowboys.

Personally, I am not completely sold on him, but it could be an option if we draft a RB and give the rookie some time to develop.

Yea

I agree with Brandon, he’ll be no good in Dallas.

I got money saying he ends up in Denver.

With the Signing if Duckett and Jones

The writing was on the wall that this was going to happen, and NO, Dallas should have Zero interest in this guy, he doesn’t have anything left in the tank.

Trade up a few spots to get ahead of Houston and draft Jonathan Stewart, thee best all around Back in the draft.

No thanks

Shaun Alexander is not worth it. I’d still rather Dallas try to get Lamont Jordan when the Raiders release him (they will have to do it for cap reasons).

Is that you, Tom?

That signature quote looks familiar.

Yeah, it's me

There were about 5 Tom’s already taken so I went ahead and changed to a different name completely.
Feels weird, but I kind of like the new name.

Yeah, I do too. Wouldn't it be cool if one day Dallas went 19-0?

It's done already

Running back Shaun Alexander was released by the Seattle Seahawks Tuesday, according to multiple sources.

He’s told teammates there might be interest from teams such as the New England Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts although he’s just beginning his first venture into free agency.

His statement is supposed to be this evening.
