Seahawks Links: Lynch, Miller, Maxwell and Julius Thomas

In the off chance that you missed it, Beast Mode is coming back.
While Marshawn Lynch will be back with the Seahawks, one player who won’t is tight end Zach Miller, who was cut.
In addition to Miller, the Hawks will lose Byron Maxwell. The Legion of Boom member is off to Philadelphia via free agency.
It seems Seattle may have found Miller’s replacement, as the Seahawks will reportedly make a “late push” to sign for former Broncos tight end and free agent Julius Thomas.
In other NFC West news, the Hawks’ arch-rival 49ers will be considerably different next season. With ~~the Khaki pants connoisseur~~ Jim Harbaugh gone, it seems the Niners will also lose three key players. Frank Gore is joining Maxwell in Philly while longtime defensive standouts Patrick Willis and Justin Smith will retire. The NFC West just goat a little bit easier to win.
