    Hawks have not drafted a 1st or 2nd Round QB...

    I wonder if Behring ever looked back at that moment with regret.

    Overall feelings about our draft?

    Theoretically, we could have traded back three spots and still have gotten one of your four players. But I can't think of anyone who I'd rather have chosen, so I'm glad we just stayed and picked.

    Who said this year is a team rebuild ?

    In the first two years of Pete Carroll's reign here, we went 7-9 both seasons. We made the playoffs the first season. We didn't make the playoffs the second season, but the team was significantly better that year, by virtue of a hundred point improvement in point differential. People who said...

    Who said this year is a team rebuild ?

    Correction: In your prediction, they're just going in circles and not going anywhere.

    Best draft in years

    Well, if you're not going to take into account that JS traded actual picks in this year's draft for Sam Howell... Schneider judged correctly that we wouldn't have a shot at any of the top 6 QBs in this year's draft, so he "drafted" someone he considers to be better than any of the QBs remaining...

    Best draft in years

    Assume for a moment that he wasn't going to trade up at all. What QB would you have had him pick? And when?

    Moyer Saying Hello...Let's Get Wyman In Here Too...

    I'd tap the brakes on that one a bit.

    A couple of comparables to Byron Murphy

    I dunno... a lot of people ridicule that pick, but I don't think it's going to turn out as badly for the Falcons as most people seem to think. I remember when the Redskins picked RGIII with the second pick of the draft, and then picked Kirk Cousins in the 4th round -- most people including me...

    Rob Staton's take on Byron Murphy

    Hearing someone with a British accent say "home run" always cracks me up for some reason.

    Schneider tried to trade up for Penix

    There are certainly still QBs on the board, and it wouldn't surprise me if we got one we liked at the right spot.

    Schneider tried to trade up for Penix

    While I agree with everything you said, I think it perhaps wasn't a serious offer only because we didn't have enough draft capital to make it work. Like lowballing on eBay or something -- a lot of the time, a lowball offer is just a lowball offer, but sometimes, a lowball offer is the result of...

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    And OT and WR. Holy cow, the first 14 picks were all on offense!

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    Fair enough.

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    Perhaps, but you can still troll. The question was whether you intended to troll with that post. If you say it wasn't an attempted troll job, I'll believe you, but yours is a decidedly minority opinion.

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    I was a bit surprised that we didn't trade back. I'll be interested to hear John's explanation of how Murphy fit with the rest of the board at that point, how many players with 1st round draft grades were left, etc.

    Penix goes #8

    Dammit.

    Paul Moyer saying Hello

    I remember when Joe Tafoya was present on this board several years ago. It's always cool when that sort of thing happens. Welcome, Paul, getting your insights here will be fun!

    Seahawks Legend Paul Moyer "excited for the future"

    A prior commitment has me doing something other than being glued to a screen tonight, but I'm nevertheless excited. I'll read about it and watch the videos after the fact.

    Redesigned Jersey???

    Yeah, I'll believe it when it happens. Until then, any rumors aren't worth paying attention to.

    Mike Salk goes in on Richard Sherman

    Meh. If Salk has an issue with Sherman, so be it. But to extrapolate from Sherm's comments about Picturegate? That's just silly IMO. Half the people here jumped to the same conclusions Sherm did, as did a lot of the people in the media who commented on it like Rich Eisen.
