01:34 PM ET 03.16 | The Seattle Seahawks are trying to win a Super Bowl right now and added to their roster by picking up defensive end Michael Bennett, formerly of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, on a one-year, $5 million deal. What's surprising is Bennett did not even give Tampa Bay a chance to match the offer, signing immediately with Seattle, according to Pro Football Talk. "They acted like they didn???t want me, so no, I didn???t go back to them," Bennett said. Bennett will be part of a rotation for Pete Carroll and the Seahawks, as they already signed defensive end Cliff Avril to a two-year contract this offseason and have Chris Clemons already on the team.

I'm kind of surprised being he was their best defensive player last season.

The Glazer family has always treated the players as "hired help". Not very warm and fuzzy. Good for Michael Bennett, at least he's going somewhere that's got a chance to win.
