Every weekday morning, we'll round up local and national Seattle Seahawks-related links.

Greg Cosell, senior producer at NFL Films and executive producer of ESPN's NFL Matchup show, offered some thoughts on the Seahawks' offense during an interview with Paul Kuharsky on 104.5 The Zone:

"They have the most remedial pass game in the NFL. From the standpoint of what they do conceptually, it’s remedial, it’s elementary. We marvel at it when we sit here and watch it in our Matchup group, how simple it is and unsophisticated it is. I don’t know where they go with that. ...At some point, their offense needs to be more than it is."

Tyler Lockett is the kick returner on Chris Wesseling's All-Pro team on NFL.com through the first quarter of the season:

We wondered last week if Lockett would start getting the Devin Hester treatment after returning a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns in his first three NFL games. The Lions employed that strategy on kickoffs Monday night, squibbing one kick and pooching another in a game of keep-away.

Chris Burke of SI.com has the Seahawks ninth in his power rankings:

Russell Wilson is really good. The defense is great. The offensive line is a stinkopotamus. That about sums it all up for the Seahawks, who drop two spots despite a crucial (and controversial) Monday night win over the Lions. How—apart from the occasional Wilson heroics— is Seattle going to score in the next two weeks vs. Cincinnati and Carolina given the current state of its blocking?

Danny Kelly of Field Gulls takes a look at Jimmy Graham's ability as a blocker:

I would find it more likely -- call it Occam's Razor -- that he's simply learning to do something that he was rarely, if ever, asked to do in New Orleans, and he's only four games into that. This could manifest in confusion and indecision, which I think we saw in a few cases. Hell, I'm way more worried about the Seahawks' offensive line's ability to block than I am about Graham's -- and their main, and only role is to block.

It's clear that blocking is Graham's secondary role by a long shot -- and this is important to remember as he gets his bearings in this offense. The Seahawks' aren't trying to change him into Zach Miller. They're not trying to make him into an extra tackle. He ran routes on 80 percent of his snaps on Monday night (with the Seahawks leading almost the entire time), and that percentage will be something to monitor going forward.
