somebody tell Brock Huard going on and on how Josh Connerly tested great at the combine and is an athlete and then saying how Haynes is not, yet Haynes tested better than him at the Combine. A guard tested better than the OT

I am not on Twitter anymore.

Most of these tackles will convert to guard in the pros so this a deep draft with OGs for that reason but JS better not screw this up.

Again, it doesn't matter WHO they take, people are going to lose their minds. Can't wait to jump on here on Monday after the draft.

It's the #18 pick. The prospect isn't going to be perfect. He needs to probably add a little weight but he's a pass rushing demon.
None of the picks in the first round are "perfect", however, my concern is that with an increase in competition level some of his listed weaknesses might become more pronounced. Things like "Size of tackles helps to reduce his rush energy." or "Gets engulfed by size when blockers get into him." are more likely to happen in the NFL where lineman are going to be bigger and stronger than a lot of those he saw at BC and he lacks size at 6' 2".

Yeah. It's a concern.

I still think it's worth the price of admission. I think the bigger concern is that he's supposed to be a speed rusher but isn't an elite athlete.

We already have ten picks and Schneider hasn't moved down in the first in six years. We're not drafting high enough, nor is the first round deep enough, where moving down is likely to net us a bevy of day 2 picks.

Feels largely pointless. We only have so many roster spots for rookies.
Damn Rat.

Look…trade down…flip that (VALUE DAWG). Now draft one more guy in the late rounds.

Cut 6.

BABOOM! Genius as I’m sure JS will be called as such on draft day.
No such thing as a sure thing or a perfect pick. The draft is a crap shoot, period.
This statement is key.

Even if they grab a guy you adore, it’s not guaranteed he’s going to pan out.

If you guys agree that the draft is not predictable than taking more shots at it makes sense. IF there isn't a guy that you feel really strongly about.

If we are talking about boom or bust edge players, the real gems are the ones that are elite athletes. I will still take a great athlete at edge. The game changers are your elite athletes. Try and score as many elite athletes at edge as much as possible.

Think, Julius Peppers and Myles Garrett!

The question was very simple, but as usual has morphed into a myriad of discussions.

Again here is the question:

With their first pick in the 2025 draft, the Seattle Seahawks select….
