The Facts:
Warrick, released by the Bengals on Tuesday, signed a one-year contract with the Seahawks Wednesday despite avid interest from other teams. In addition to being given an opportuntity to earn a role in the regular offense, it is also believed that Warrick will return punts for the Seahawks. Warrick had been scheduled to make at least two other visits, to Tampa Bay and the New York Giants, and several other teams had indicated interest in meeting with him. But he flew to Seattle on Tuesday evening, shortly after his release, passed the team's physical exam on Wednesday morning and agent Drew Rosenhaus then moved quickly to close a deal with Seahawks officials.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It will be interesting to see how Mike Holmgren utilizes Warrick from a formation standpoint. The Seahawks already have a terrific slot receiver, the position at which Warrick has been most successful, in Bobby Engram. Engram was moved into the starting lineup, though, this summer, when the Seahawks released former first-round wideout Koren Robinson.
