Seattle Seahawks new offensive line coach Mike Solari has been very muted about some of the changes he may make along a front that was at times in tatters last season. But offensive guard Rob Sims recently revealed that Solari has been attempting to implement a zone-blocking scheme that should allow for the offensive front to be exposed less, according to USA Today.

Our View:The Seahawks have been restricted in their mini-camps because left tackle Walter Jones and center Chris Spencer have missed the entire offseason recovering from surgeries. And Sims missed part of two OTAs to recover from knee surgery. However, running back Julius Jones should be a good fit in the one-cut scheme, adding to his intrigue as a sleeper type back in 2008.

The Seahawks are going to employ a running back by committee approach this season, which new rusher Julius Jones is used to while splitting the workload with Marion Barber in Seattle, according to The Tacoma News Tribune.

Our View:While Jones' fantasy value won't improve much while in Seattle with a committee approach, it will keep him healthier over the course of the season. Maurice Morris would likely see an increase in carries, and he will benefit from the RBBC approach, however. TJ Duckett should establish himself as the short-yardage specialist.

With news of Julius Jones signing with the Seattle Seahawks and rumors swirling of the potential RB situation up north, Adam Schefter of the NFL Network reports Jones will make $5.5 million this year, according to ProFootballTalk.com. According to NFLPA records, Shaun Alexander’s (the incumbent RB of choice in Seattle) base salary is scheduled at $4.475 million in 2008. Jones’ deal is for four years and $16 million. In contrast, Alexander is scheduled to earn base salaries totaling $24 million over the next four seasons, making Jones the more affordable long-term option. T.J. Duckett was also signed recent and is reportedly receiving $4 million in guaranteed money. The writing is on the wall. Things are going to change in Seattle, and it appears Alexander's failures after getting his financial rewards are coming home to roost.

Julius Jones has signed with the Seahawks, accoring to NFL.com. Details of the deal are yet to be revealed. TJ Duckett should still hold value as a goal-line specialist.

Julius Jones is scheduled to visit with the Seattle Seahawks today, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. The Michael Turner signing in Atlanta, leaves Jones next in the pecking order for many teams including Tennessee, Tampa Bay, Detroit and now Seattle. If the organization were to sign Jones, the backfield suddenly becomes very crowded. Pure speculation, but it could lead to the end of Shaun Alexander as a Seahawk.
