Pick #123, 4th Round: WR Kevin Norwood, Alabama

[TheHawkster]

Kearse and Norwood for length and jump balls.
Harvin, Baldwin and Richardson for everything else.

WR's look solidified.

Then, theres Rice.........

 

[45Hawker]

I hope Norwood is in the weight room today. He only had 8 reps at 225 at the combine. That's pretty light, especially when you consider he's 24.

Good pickup though, IMO.

 

[Blitzer88]

I happy with this pick. Seems like a solid and reliable wideout.

 

[3Girls'HawkDad]

Probably means Ricardo gets cut.

Ha! We will see. I used to say the same thing about Obamanu every year.

And Lockette is becoming a special teams force.

Of course he is buddies with Papaki, so yeah

 

[HansGruber]

Like Richardson, this kid was the team captain. Very interesting.

 

[razgriz737]

Possibly my favorite pick of the draft! LOVE this pick!

 

[HawkFan72]

They just played a great feature on Norwood on NFL Network. He has overcome a lot, something the Hawks really look for. His hard work, dedication, and adversity helped him become a great WR at Alabama. Pure Seahawk pick.

 

[Giblien]

I'm adopting this kid. He seemed so kind and humble in his interview...and apparently he is clutch on the field.

 

[General Manager]

Solid pick in the 4rth round .

 

[Rainger]

NFL network just ran a feature on this guy. Really good. He is going to be a huge addition to this team.

 

[Shadowhawk]

I think I've found my Adopt-A-Rookie. After watching that NFL Network feature, I not only think he will succeed, I really WANT him to succeed.

 

[BlueThunder]

I think I've found my Adopt-A-Rookie. After watching that NFL Network feature, I not only think he will succeed, I really WANT him to succeed.

Ditto. That feature just made him my Adopt-A-Rookie for sure. I'll be watching Mr. Norwood closely this pre-season... and rooting for him to succeed!

 

[Smelly McUgly]

Norwood plays like Baldwin more than anything.

Good pick.

 

[IndyHawk]

I like this guy..He's always trying hard to make a catch and making something happen after catch...Good hands..Great pick...

 

[45Hawker]

I think he'll play like a slightly bigger and quicker Ben Obumanu.

 

[SalishHawkFan]

Reads like a taller Bobby Engram

my thoughts exactly. This guy will compete with Baldwin for the slot. I could see us moving Baldwin over on third downs and having two targets for Wilson to move the chains with.

 

[Ziggyy108]

25 years old. 4 years at Alabama.

Should come in and compete immediately

 

[Seaswab]

Everyone's heard of this guy so he must be a great pick!

 

[EastCoastHawksFan]

I'm really excited about this pick after watching that NFLN special they had on him. This guy has the make-up to be our number one wide receiver. I think in 2015 he will be our number 1 receiver. He has the ability to catch the ball at the highest point consistently as well being clutch on 3rd downs. Russell Wilson loves giving his receivers a chance when it's one on one coverage.

 

[razgriz737]

They say he's really good when the play breaks down, so he will fit in perfectly here.
