    Pre-Grading Pick #20

    I'm really worried that we end up going TE in round 1. Even though the guys you listed are studs (I especially like Kincaid), and are being mocked in this range, I don't think we have the capital to make going TE at 20 a good option. I'd love for Paris (or Skoronski, who is my favorite) to...

    Three I'd Like to See ( Non-First Round)

    Good info, and I'll confess that I didn't know Smith tested quite so well. He didn't test at the Combine or his Pro Day, so his testing scores weren't on my radar, but I've been reading up on him, and you're right... those are freakish numbers. This does move him up a bit in my book, makes the...

    Three I'd Like to See ( Non-First Round)

    Ika is on my list as well. For my money, Ika is one of two pure NTs in this draft, with Mazi Smith being the other. Smith is the consensus #1 NT, and probably has a bit more athleticism than Ika, but only just. Smith is being mocked in the last 1st or early 2nd, but that feels too high for...

    Overall best QBs by team

    Good list and interesting thought. But when you limit to players from the last 10-20 years, only 1-2 of those guys were taken after round 1.

    Jalen Carter

    Fair. But a young adult to perform well on a Pro Day, and to maintain your workout schedule/weight, and to be open to being shopped around the country, in the weeks following the tragedy, feels unfair.

    Pre-Grading Pick #20

    Grading draft picks is a blast for me. So this year, I thought I’d do something a bit different, and pre-grade some possible choices. To start, here are my pre-draft grades for pick 20. Note that these assume that we go DL or Edge at 5. Witherspoon or Gonzalez (CB) – A++. I’m not a huge fan...

    Anthony Richardson aced the s2 cognition exam

    I'm not a huge Richardson fan, but comparing him to Willis feels pretty unfair. Willis was a modest upside QB who could develop into a starter in a weak QB class. Richardson has MVP characteristics without even squinting. Whether either develops into their potential is anyone's guess. But...

    Poll: What do you think will happen?

    Tyree Wilson. I think that he's likely to be there, at a position of emphasis, and has the length and power that will entice the coaching staff. I'll also share that this is far from my favorite pick.

    Devon Witherspoon is a monster

    The kid has lighting in his shoes. He accelerates from stop-to full speed as fast as any player I've seen since Deion Sanders. A while ago, I heard a pundit say that watching him play was like playing a video game. Having watched his film, I agree. However, he's not even the #1 CB on my...

    Trading up would be a mistake

    If we trade up in the top 5, it better be for below market value, and it better involve one of the top two QBs. I'm done listing scenarios that warrant consideration in the top 5. But depending on how the board falls, trading up from 20 may make a ton of sense. If we go Carter at 5, and...

    2022 Post: Mone, 2 years 12 mil extension '23 replies

    I obviously trust you, but I don't see where you get $5M. If I'm reading it right, on OTC, a pre June cut saves $2.2M. Which is actually closer to $1.5M in true savings if we replace him with a rookie. Am I missing something? In other news, I hadn't heard the reports on his knee. That's a...

    Which one of these guys will be a Seahawk in 2 weeks?

    Pundits have mostly narrowed the #5 spot to three players (Anderson, Wilson, Carter), which does make sense... and these are probably the three most likely options. But the Hawks going their own way, and taking someone who hasn't been on the radar at #5, who is a great player but a awful value...

    Looking like Carter or Anderson Jr

    Thanks Best Jerhawk. Yeah, Wilson simply checks a ton of boxes. With Anderson likely to be gone, Wilson is likely the best edge on the board. He's the consensus #2 edge (thus at a position of need) with really good upside, outstanding tools, outstanding power, and no off the field issues...

    Looking like Carter or Anderson Jr

    Or Wilson. I strongly prefer Anderson or Carter over Wilson, but I think that Wilson is the most likely option at #5 for a variety of reasons.

    A Solution at NT (a proposal)

    Simply put: We couldn't afford it. For the first time in recent memory, we are in the red on the salary cap, and need to find another 5-10M just to make it through the year. That's possible, but not easy or painless. We've already seen some of this pain in the form of Neal and Woods. I...

    Quandre with the scoop?

    I very much agree! But, often times, NFL will make make moves with a short term benefit, that aren't logical long term, just to get out of cap trouble. I do worry that this could be one of those cases. I love Diggs. But a longer-term, higher cost investment in Diggs would be a bad long term...

    Quandre with the scoop?

    It's possible that it's an extension or restructure for Diggs' contract. While I'm not sure that I love either of these moves, these are some of the few tools that we can use to get a bit more cap space.

    Importance of the Center position

    It's important. But, Big Walt could have time traveled, come back, played center, and we wouldn't have seriously challenged SF for the division last year.

    What would your general yearly draft stratagy be?

    My philosophy: 1: Never fall in love with a single player. That's when you make mistakes. 2: Trust the film above everything else. 3: Every player has risks and upsides; Very very few players ever experience either of these. 4: In the long term, future draft picks are worth about as much...

    Agent: Jalen Carter to visit only teams with top-10 pick

    One way to spin this: His talent is clearly a top 10 talent. Saying he views himself as a top 10 talent is not absurd. Not good politics, but not a huge factor to me. Ultimately, I care about film way more than all of this other stuff. And even though the other stuff continues to stack up...
