Seahawks promote five members of personnel department

The Seahawks played Oprah Thursday — you get a promotion and you get a promotion and you get a promotion.

All told, the team announced five moves in their personnel department, all guys on the current staff who got new titles (and ostensibly, big raises).

Scott Fitterer and Trent Kirchner have been elevated to the role of co-directors of player personnel, and each will direct both sides. Fitterer was their college scouting director and Krichner the pro personnel director. Kirchner was interviewed this offseason for the Jets General Manager job.

They also promoted Ed Dodds to senior personnel executive, Matt Berry to director of college scouting and Dan Morgan to director of pro personnel.
