J.P. Losman headed to Seattle

Former first-round draft pick J.P. Losman is the newest member of the Seattle Seahawks, his agent announced last night. In an e-mail to the Associated Press, Gary Wichard let it be known that Losman agreed to a one-year, $630,000 contract. He signed on the dotted line Wednesday. 

Losman, 29, was a first round pick of the Buffalo Bills in 2004. He spent five years with the team, never living up to the hype of his draft status. Derailed by injuries and poor performances, Losman was nothing short of a disappointment. He showed some promise in 2006, when he passed 3,501 yards and 19 touchdowns. He also threw 14 interceptions that season, and it was the only time he played all 16 games in a season. 

Matt Hasselbeck and Charlie Whitehurst are already on the roster, so Losman likely will have no chance to move up on the depth chart.
