That's a surprise. Guys on Sirius reported him staying in Oakland just a couple of hours ago.

we always seam to have issues with TE's...... hopefully TJack gets locked on Rice and forgets he has Miller...

good get for them... they've got a lot of pretty solid receiving weapons. thank god they don't have a QB.

 

[Dayman]

They've made some nice moves this offseason. They've also made some terrible ones. This one stands atop of the nice moves category. Excellent signing for them.

I was going to make a disparaging remark about Tarvaris Jackson and then I remembered that he threw for four touchdowns at the UofP in 2008.

 

[Pariah]

Between Miller and Carlson that's a pretty good TE tandem.

Besides the eagles, we are ranked #2 by yahoo on this list, Sea is #3, does acquiring Miller put their offseason in front of us?

Hope they don't get one in the first round of next year's draft!

I think he only completed about 9 passes that game. It's just that he heaved a couple of them up for grabs and Bernard Berrian came down with it. He stunk then and he stinks now.

I heard on NFL radio the other day, I think it was Pat Kirwan and he said he always found it "interesting" why WR's would go to teams with QB issues. Doesn't make sense.

Let us try as a group not to get too paranoid about other teams signings....we done good and the team can't sign every swinging jockstrap.

This. Jackson is just not good. I have watched plenty of games with him. That game against us just might be one of his best, the rest of success he was a part of was during Peterson's initial coming out as a top 3 back in the league.

 

[Unsterblich856]

Not much of a surprise, from what I'm hearing from Raiders fans is that he was really bitter about Tom Cable being fired.

Here's the Zach Miller contract with the Seahawks: 5 years, $34 million, including $17 million guaranteed.

That's a lot of money.

I would have liked for us to get him but after getting Heap and King, I'm not complaining and knew he wasn't an option. I still feel like we have a better QB then they do and Miller can only work with the balls he's thrown.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Raiders have had just a terrible off season.

 

[BigRedRage]

ida taken miller over heap, good job seattle.

 

[azsouthendzone]

Raiders and 49ers are gunning for Luck. If Jackson is serviceable, and that is a big if, Seattle will be good.

 

[sportznutt]

At least they paid A LOT of $$$ for him.........$17 million guarenteed!

 

[gmabel830]

Matt Barkley is going to have some really nice weapons to work with up in Seattle in 2012!

 

[PJ1]

Anywhere but a division rival would have been fine. Seattle has certainly improved but I still can't stand them or their goofy ass coach.

That's a lot of money.

He's one of the best young tight ends in the game, worth every penny.
