1. Russell 2. Bobby Wagner 3. Baldwin 4. K.J Wright (most underrated on team) 5. Lockett 6. Sherman 7. Kam 8. Jimmy 9. The kicker, I'm not trying to spell his name. 10. Britt. Next year Ifedi will likely be in my top five.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

1. Russ Wilson - team leader, hard worker, asset to the city, baby-faced killer 2. Richard Sherman - intimidating defender, great run-stopper and go ahead and throw to his side - he'll just make you look stupid 3. Bobby Wagner - great defender of pass and rush, great speed and has a nose for the football. Lynch pin of the linebackers 4. Doug Baldwin - reminds me of Largent - great route runner, tough as nails, a vacuum for the football 5. Michael Bennett - simply unstoppable on the line, tough and relentless
This is a terribly hard list to compile because there are so many Seahawks that play a huge role, and naming 5 of them makes me feel like I'm not paying proper respect to Kam, KJ, Christine Michael, Lockett, and Earl Thomas, just to name a few.
That's a good thing, and why the Hawks have been so successful - everyone pulling the weight and playing big.
And how about Schneider and Carroll.....................and Paul Allen?
This is an easy team to love.

Fuk it..let's go top ten instead of five. 6. Sherman 7. Kam 8. Jimmy 9. The kicker, I'm not trying to spell his name.  10. Britt. Next year Ifedi will likely be in my top five.

I agree on all the above, but Kam, Sherman, Bennett, and Wagner are my favorites. Hard nose, schit talking killers. Going to enjoy this season, no way to keep this squad together with salary cap.

no way to keep this squad together with salary cap. The same thing was said in 2013. That's where John Schneider comes into play.

My favorite Hawk just retired.  Its impossible to pick a favorite now but there was a clear centerpiece for about 5 years there where superhuman feats took place from time to time and that was some classic football. Now the team is very impressive and suffocating defense is the norm which is exciting as hell but still no beast quake. Its kinda like the D is the cake but the offense is the icing. I want that icing with the cake. Football is won by scoring at least some points but than again maybe I am used to such good defense that I take it for granted? The coolest thing I saw lately was Jimmy Gesus making a one handed catch and seeming to have the hunger for glory he once possessed in New Orleans.
This is an easy team to love.
Lots and lots and lots (like my Trump impression?) of people out there HATE the Hawks, they are always fans of other teams though.

Graham is on fire, with the attitude to match. If he stays healthy, he could break some records.
I agree that Marshawn will be missed. Hopefully he can enjoy his retirement without going bust.
2016 Hawk's team with M.L., would win bigglee.

Marshawn is a pretty frugal, financially intelligent guy from everything I've heard and read about him. I wish him well in retirement but I don't think he'll stay retired too long. Something tells me the Las Vegas Raiders will need a running back.

Earl has had a terrible season thus far, and he didn't play very well last year, albeit he had some injuries. It obvious you have no clue how important a kicker is to a team. I hope Earl can turn it around and quit missing tackles every game...he's starting to play like Lofa alligator arms.
