The Seahawks seem to be in the market for a very particular kind of defense. Today, we learned that Seattle is promoting assistant head coach and defensive line coach Clint Hurtt to defensive coordinator. Additionally, the team is hiring Broncos defensive coordinator Ed Donatell for an as-yet unnamed senior role. The team is also hoping to add Bears defensive coordinator Sean Desai to their staff, likely taking over Andre Curtis’ former role as defensive passing game coordinator. - The common denominator for all three of them is that they all spent time together on Vic Fangio’s staff when he was head coach of the Bears. We’ve already taken a look at a few Broncos defensive backs who are pending free agents that might follow Donatell to Seattle. Now, let’s examine some potential additions from Chicago’s defense that might fit this vision.
