Pick 237: Kenny McIntosh RB Georgia

[pmedic920]

Kenny McIntosh RB Georgia

 

[RockinHawks]

Our running back room just got a lot stronger after this draft.

 

[FortWorthSeahawk]

Good runner and receiver and another tough as nails type player. Great value in the 7th round and looks like we've rounded out the RB room quite nicely.

 

[RockinHawks]

Three of our four RBs could handle a full load, if needed. We're gonna run the hell out of the ball this year!

 

[12AngryHawks]

A great finish to the draft for Seattle, a guy who can contribute to both the run & pass game. I like it. I think this year's draft could be as good as last year's

 

[Jville]

 

[MyrtleHawk]

I love this pick, I didn't think we had a chance with him after drafting Charbonet but wow we got a steal

 

[Rat]

Is he a RB or WR? His ESPN profile doesnt make that clear. Seems like a good pick regardless.

 

[sutz]

I like it. Fill that RB room with more young hungry guys.

 

[FortWorthSeahawk]

Is he a RB or WR? His ESPN profile doesnt make that clear. Seems like a good pick regardless.

More of a running back that can split out as needed as a 3rd or 4th WR.

 

[EverydayImRusselin]

Fantastic 7th rd pick IMO.

 

[12AngryHawks]

I hope Waldron has some fun with this guy.

 

[HawksNation]

Seems like their biggest focus this draft was 3rd down completions.
JSN Charbonnet and McIntosh help us.

 

[Nv_Hawks]

Love this, little Debo and Percy to him.

 

[James in PA]

We got the 2 Ken's! Kenny Mack to go with K9!

 

[Pandion Haliaetus]

How bout them apples?

Love it. Every mock I tried to take two RBs because that position was so deep.

McIntosh is an exciting player in Waldron’s system. Pre-combine mocking when I was adding crazy amount of surplus, he was one guy I included every mock (at the time I was also high on Hall, Morris, Charb too) because I thought McIntosh had the ability to play snaps at the slot and give Seahawks a capable runner and a capable WR type RB. I think he might have some return potential too.

You can't ask for better 7th round value. It isn't often that a 7th round pick is a lock to make the team. I'll make that bet with anyone. Not only does he stick but he plays. A guy that can pluck the ball out of the air like that can easily field kicks. I envision a "Cordarrelle Patterson type" kickoff returner. He has that same long, powerful stride (it seems that every step covers 2.5 yards). They look very similar in running style.

 

[Jerhawk]

He seems like a very solid prospect for a 7th rounder!

 

[sutz]

We've been getting burned by these hybrid RB/WR types for years. Looks like we have one of our own now.

 

[Scout]

This draft this year was strange in that a lot of late round picks will stick with a lot of teams. It wasn't very strong at top but had depth in the later rounds.

McIntosh is a great cap stone to the Hawks draft. Very good value and provides even more depth at RB.
