Well there is NFL.com - Mike Vanderjagt (http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/12783)
I think Vanderjagermeister's problems start with kickoffs. We need somebody who can kick it past the 10 yardline, a problem that Suisham and MV both cant do on a regular basis.

Exactly, our special teams did a pretty good job of limiting return yards this past season, but it would help them a ton if the returner didn't start at the 5 or 10 every time.

No surprise there. How much money will that free up? Schneed?
Even though Suisham did a good job towards the end, I also think they can do better.
Cap room freed up: $1.5 million.
This move is definitely no surprise. The writing was all over the wall.
Josh Brown is available, I believe.

Thank God Hall is gone.
I'd like to see Suisham get a shot at the gig.

Im gonna miss Hall, he was the only kicker that gets the personals from knocking guys over after the field goal.
The word out of Seattle is they're not going to let Josh Brown get away:
Taking into account the bad taste that has lingered in the Seahawks organization since the unceremonious departure of Pro Bowl OLG Steve Hutchinson last offseason, inside sources tell us it's highly unlikely the team will allow PK Josh Brown, the player considered least expendable among its free agents, to split the scene this season. "I think it's imperative that they re-sign him," Seahawks special-teams coach Bob Casullo told PFW last week. "Considering his value to the team, it's a no-brainer."

The whole Suisham vs. "Another guy" for kicker sounds like it might be a good poll question...personally I think he's earned a shot...he's been accurate, he's got distance, he helped us get into overtime with a clutch shot so he can handle the pressure, and he's young (25 years old).

Suisham's kickoffs were at least adequate. Something Hall struggled with and Novak only dreamed of. There aren't a ton of kickers who have both the leg and accuracy we are looking for.
If only we had brought a good young guy back in the day. Oh whoops what ever happened to that guy Akers?
