Cox will be fine in Seattle.
Carroll coaches up the secondary better than anybody in the league.
And the front 7 is very strong.
You have a consensus best secondary in the nfl with:
1st round pick - Thomas
5th round pick - Sherman
5th round pick - Chancellor
UFA - Browner
4th round pick - Thurmond
That's not elite scouting. That's taking guys who fit a certain physical profile and putting them into positions to succeed. And probably finding ways to mask weaknesses of DBs in general. Take any position group in the nfl that's considered best and I doubt it's mostly 5th round guys with a first round anchor.
Cox may or may not fit the Seahawk profile but I'm sure he will be a better player up north than he was in SF.
How is this Niner fan the voice of reason in this thread? You guys are way too emotional and judgmental.
Because he has no emotional connection to our team like we do. It's easy to be emotional when you care.
It's just reality.
Seeing Scott Tolzien put up nfl numbers in GB leads me to believe Alex Smith would be a pro bowl QB there. And those scrub receivers that never make it in SF could go to new Orleans and be in highlight reels.
The way LBs produce in SF is impressive outside the starting four. And defensive line too.
The Giants would kill for LBs like that. And they were the team for that one time.
And about caring for a team? Nonsense. I've cared a long time and always will. Doesnt mean I can't be rational about them and other teams.
Ive cared about the team when Holmgren was our OC turning Joe Montana into a legend and Carroll was our DB coach and DC. Ken Norton jr as our dominant MLB. Jim Mora jr was there at the end of our initial relevance with Mariucci.
Seeing the Seahawks stomp the 49ers in 2010 opener was tough, then losing to Saints on Monday night on my birthday sucked. Watching the 49ers narrowly miss the playoffs at seasons end to St Louis was the peak of the dark days.
We'll see what happens this year. One way or another, the results will matter to me.
