On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is riding solo as Jim Moore, who usually joins on Wednesday’s had to attend to a personal matter, but Puck rolls on as he welcomes his regular weekly guests, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times and Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.com
Puck opens up the show with his criticism of local reporters who claim that the national media was and is just making up a story about D.K. Metcalf and perhaps being traded. As Puck points out it’s the same group that claimed that Russell Wilson was never going to be traded and anyone that ever brought that up was uneducated and didn’t have a clue about the situation because they weren’t “local” and didn’t have boots on the ground.
It’s just inaccurate to say that the Seahawks didn’t listen to offers. They obviously didn’t have an offer they liked so that’s why they didn’t trade him, but to suggest that reporters like Mike Garafolo, NFL Network, who joins Puck every week or Adam Schefter of ESPN just simply made up a story is just complete nonsense and Puck can’t understand why they didn’t learn their lesson from the Wilson trade.
Ryan Divish, Seattle Times is back to join Jason “Puck” Puckett, for the Mariners “Cold Stove” Offseason Report. They quickly dive into the M’s biggest offseason needs, which are improving the infield and specifically second base, however, there is not much talent out there on the free agent market, nor do the M’s feel propelled to trade one of their young pitchers to upgrade that position.
Ryan calculated, along with Adam Jude of the Seattle Times, in their most recent “Extra Innings” Podcast, that the Mariners have between $20-25 million to spend on free agents for the upcoming season.
Divish explains to Puck why he doesn’t think the M’s will trade one of their young pitchers and says if they do end up trading a pitcher, the most likely pitcher to be dealt would be Luis Castillo.
Divish asked Puck a great question during the show, of the major professional teams in Seattle and they included Husky football, and the Seahawks, Mariners and Kraken. Who is the closest to winning a championship? They both agreed it’s probably the Mariners!
Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.com, drops by for his weekly visit to talk Seahawks football with Jason “Puck” Puckett. And, once again they get right into the play off the offensive line and how poor it was against the Rams.
Puck asks Rob if it’s fair to question whether the Seahawks got it right with Mike Macdonald? It was a topic Puck brought up yesterday with Danny Kelly of The Ringer and Rob wanted to respond. They both agreed that they didn’t know, which is ok to admit! They also wondered and discussed that it’s not fair to fully evaluate offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb because Grubb is only getting to a fraction of his play sheet because of the issues along the offensive line.
They also discussed the trade market for D.K. Metcalf and if it makes sense in the offseason to consider moving on from Metcalf if they determined that they need to be in rebuilding mode.
Puck thinks an offseason rebuild needs to be on the table if they continue to lose games, especially the next three. Is it worth spending money on a receiver and a quarterback if you don’t have an offensive line to protect them?
How much times does John Schneider have? probably more than you think.
Lastly, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Puck disagrees with the NBA’s decision to suspend Sixers center Joel Embiid for his encounter with a Philadelphia columnist.
