Seattle SS Kam Chancellor, DE Cliff Avril will have "very hard time playing again"

If the Seahawks extend KJ Wright, Earl Thomas, and Richard Sherman they'll have the core of that defense locked up for many years. Then all they have to worry about is the defensive line. You're not replacing Kam Chancellor. You can't. Bradley McDougal was a good player, though and should continue to be a starter for them.

Richard Sherman recovering from a torn achilles isn't a given.

This is true, but I think it's becoming more commonplace for NFL athletes to recover from a torn achilles these days. It's not a guarantee, but it's not something you should count on not happening, either.

I personally think it comes down to position as well - something like CB is a spot where blowing the tendon out really impacts COD ability, which is the most important attribute to a CB.

Pure conjecture on my end, but I'd be worried.

Seahawks demise has been a long way coming.  No one could predict this is how those two would end, but whether it injury or contract dispute or free agency or something, when you load up on veteran stars, eventually it comes crashing down.

Just like the 2010 Jets and 2013 Broncos.

With Denver, it wasn't just loading up on vets. Poor drafting has also had a lot to do with it. For example, Elway drafted two guys in Round 3 in this past draft (Carlos Henderson and Brendan Langley) that don't look like players at this point.

going forward I think this teams identity will be Wilson .. LOB and the defense will take a backseat now

He’s gonna need a run game and a better offensive line. 

Maybe Chris Carson can be that guy.

What's the status on McDowell? There was a little scuttlebutt on these boards at one time that his injuries in the atv accident could have been career ending as well. Is he projected to be back?

Asking Carson to be responsible for the run game and offensive line is probably asking a lot of him ;)
