Pick 35: Nick Emmanwori

[MyrtleHawk]

I just watched this, and I absolutely loved it. From touching the Seahawks helmet, to ironically wearing a blue and green hat (non-Seahawks) on the day he got drafted...I absolutely loved it and it's worth the time.

That was my inference, or I made it up, based on chronological events on day 2. I am quite sure that Pete and our guys talked shop on the plane. What else could they talk for an hour with Pete standing the whole time? But quite sure it was mostly Geno and not drafts.

Slow Cooker recipes?

I figured MM would be looking to secure a Kyle Hamilton Swiss army knife for his defense. There were only two that fit that mold in the draft, although they are in some ways different players, many positive traits intersect with these two.
When Malaki Starks went to the Ravens at #27, that spurred the Hawks to trade up to #35.

Starks.
High IQ, instincts. Deep coverage/ball skills, speed, explosiveness. Sound tackler.
Emmanwori.
Elite size, speed, traits. Reliable tackler, run defender, biltzer. LOS friendly.

I see Starks as a bigger ET.
Nick E as a faster, more athletic Kam.

Actually when they traded up I thought they were after another OLineman...
Just kidding. I knew that had a teardrops chance in Hell. lol

And we still never got the Milroe phone call vid...and we probably never will. lol

But yeah...had to have been very exciting for him and his family.

From my understanding, there isn't one, at least from the team's side. They couldn't reach him on the phone when they drafted him.

Why would our staff talk to Pete about our draft picks.?

Cause they weren’t our draft picks yet and John got Pete talking football and we got emmenwori
