    #6 Sam Howell

    We know as much as is reasonably possible that Geno will be starting. The difference in quality between what Geno has done as a starter here and what Howell brought to the table last year is not small. The difference is Geno is a veteran on the back end of his career. Commanders brought in a...

    23 Draft... A bust?

    Again, you just said 3 of 4 day 1/2 guys were good picks. Olu is looking like he will be starting next year but outside of special teamers, nobody grabbed on day 3 can be realistically judged on 1 season of--usually--playing off the bench. If they were guys who were projected to be immediate...

    23 Draft... A bust?

    I mean, you just said that 3 out of the 4 of our day 1 & 2 picks were good/decent. How does that equal a bust? I'm at a loss as to what we should be seeing from day 3 guys only 1 year into their NFL careers.

    Overall feelings about our draft?

    With the caveat that I don't watch college ball, I thought this was a good draft and like the philosophy behind it. First and third round, we drafted guys who were not projected to be available. We got top 15 talent at 16 and 2nd round talent in the third and both at positions of need. After...

    Byron Murphy come on down!

    I think he was #2 rated on the consensus big board for defensive players up front. (Turner was #1) He wasn't projected to still be available for us.

    Pick is in

    Seahawks didn't trade back: Marginally surprising. NFL goes to commercial just before Seahawks pick: Not at all surprising.

    Signs pointing against trading down

    Also makes the play for Howell look better, IMO.

    Personality Hall of Fame

    Hey now, Raible was a Seahawks player, he counts! I'd add Luke Willson for consideration. Maybe Doug Baldwin as well.

    The 2024 Great Draft Debate

    That wasn't a report of an actual trade attempt by the Seahawks, it was Heavy.com making an article out of some other writer's idea for a trade he thinks we should consider. It was a click-bait headline to make you think it was actual news. I'm not saying the Seahawks wouldn't try to trade...

    Geno vs. Sam QB mobility.

    If we were to consider 'mobility', we would absolutely be starting Geno over Sam. Which we are. Schneider and Macdonald have now both said this. This hasn't really been Geno's problem as Seahawks starter and definitely not this past year. In 2022, he got sacked on 33% of pressures which was...

    D’wayne Eskridge and new Kickoff rules

    He was one of the better returners in the league (both punt and kickoff), I don't know why those posts pop up about him all the time. He was solid and dependable, but it seems lots of fans would rather trade that away for one kickoff return TD with a negative -1-yard average for every other...

    HC Mike MacDonald on QB Competition

    Three overall thoughts on this: 1) I don't know why anyone thinks the timing on this is crazy or suspicious or whatever. To me, this is just like basic honesty. When they were making non-committal statements, they hadn't committed yet. Now they have, so they are making these statements. I mean...

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    And so did everyone else, but you're either purposefully ignoring that or not grasping the point CallMeADawg is making.

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    Yes, no other QB had any potential picks dropped, just Geno... is this done purposefully in bad faith, or did you really just not consider that?

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    Whose proposal is this, though? And why wouldn't the Broncos or Vikings offer more for the same deal, since they are in worse QB situations than the Seahawks? And you continue to miss the point that I said I find the idea of trading up to get the #4 QB is fundamentally poor judgement. I don't...

    Mock, more mocks.

    I enjoy doing these Mock's even though I do not watch college football so outside of a few names, I don't actually know who any of these people are. Here is my most recent: R1: #25 - Jackson Power Johnson - IOL - Oregon* R2: #58 - Junior Colson - LB - Michigan* R3: #81 - Kiran Amegadjie - OT -...

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    Let's be real here: Drew is definitely being considered for possibly starting. The Giants are doing clean-up because Schneider blew up their spot. We know this because they are paying Drew Lock $5 million. Teams with healthy, prime years QBs either have backup QBs on rookie deals or bring in...

    Cousins heading to Atlanta

    Not sure if this strange thread policing is actually looking for a legit response or not, but since I started this thread here you go: If you looked at when I posted this (Monday at 12:50), the above referenced "Free Agent News" thread didn't yet exist. You're welcome. Feel free to tell your...

    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    Trading a bunch of capital to get the 4th/5th/6th best QB is nuts to me. None of those guys would go on day one if this were any other year. QBs are the most important single position on a team. But they are still just 1 spot on one third of a complete team. Based on the analysis we are seeing...

    Lock contadicts js on expectations

    I'm assuming Drew is like his cousin or something. Former classmate? I had a teacher who was friend's with Trent Dilfer, so I was unreasonably big on Trent back in the day and I never even met the dude. The Giants robbed us blind? They took a guy who was a slightly below average backup and paid...
