I wouldn't want Te'o in a Seahawks uniform if he was available in the 7th round, my blood pressure would explode from worry at him having the defensive mic. Why catfish our own defense with an overhyped gullible fool like him when we can get a good will later on and let the runner up for DROY improve where he is?

I agree that you don't waste a high pick on a nickel, but there is a need.

So, you are of the opinion that we will be good will hunting on day 2?

I'm concerned with Nickle simply because, as bad as we all could see how much of a liability Marcus Trufant was, he kept getting the call from the defensive staff each week he was available. That leaves me to think they weren't happy with the 'young talent' we had. Not sure why, because I disagreed with that decision. Of course, now that Bradley is gone and Trufant is a FA, maybe the point is moot.theENGLISHseahawk":3j5rgbit said:chris98251":3j5rgbit said:Funny people were screaming for a Nickel CB to replace Trufant, here's a guy that is one of the top guys and yet we don't need a CB ?

I'm the only one who's said we don't need a corner so far and I don't recall screaming for a nickel replacement.
We have a lot of young cornerback talent. I'll roll with Lane or Thurmond in the nickel. And I'd look to draft Sanders Commings at some point because I just like the way he plays. But is nickel corner a first round level need? Of course it isn't.

Why spend a 1st round pick on a nickel, Trufant doesn't have the size to be a starting corner in our scheme.
