Receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh visits Seahawks

BasX · Feb 28, 2009

"The Seahawks put T.J. Houshmandzadeh's name up in lights during a tour of Qwest Field on Friday.

That was just a part of their campaign to get Houshmandzadeh put his name on a free-agent contract

On the first full day of free agency, the Seahawks hosted Houshmandzadeh, 31, one of the best wide receivers available this offseason, and prepared to wave goodbye to a running back they've had the past seven years.

Seattle appears on the brink of losing Maurice Morris, who reached an agreement on a three-year deal with Detroit, according to a report on the league's Web site. Morris' agent did not return phone calls.

The departure of Morris, who was chosen in the second round of the 2002 draft, would not be a surprise. Seattle signed Julius Jones and T.J. Duckett last year, committing money to a change of direction in the backfield. Morris and Jones shared time this past season, while Morris started six games and rushed for 574 yards. He got an increased share of the workload late in the season after Jones lost his grip on the job because of fumbles.

Seattle was not expected to be one of the more aggressive teams in free agency, but pushed to the forefront by pursuing one of the top receivers available.

Houshmandzadeh said in a telephone interview with ESPN that he was also interested in Minnesota, the New York Giants and Philadelphia, though he also said he did not know if those teams were interested in him."

I think he'd thrive in either Seattle or Philadelphia. A talented possession reciever who lacks big play ability can work as a #1 in a West Coast offense.
