The pick is IN! #5

[Appyhawk]

This better not be a QB.

 

[TheLegendOfBoom]

Let’s goooo!!

 

[Appyhawk]

OMG. A CB. Arrrrgh! Witherspoon is a very good player, but...I guess our D Line is better than I thought.

 

[HawksNation]

Wow

 

[Scout]

Well...that IS a surprise.

But the Hawks now have on paper an elite secondary.

 

[Mistashoesta]

Hmmmm.....

 

[JayhawkMike]

Pete is a ******* moron

 

[QWERTY]

WHAT A F**** STUPID PICK.

 

[Scout]

Hawks building an elite secondary on paper. Surprising indeed.

 

[JPatera76]

Love it

 

[suppaball]

I hate this pick. He had better be Prime 2.0

 

[QWERTY]

IT DOESNT MATTER HOW ELITE THIS CORNER IS, BUT IF THE REFS WANT TO CHEAT THE GAME THEY WILL THROW A FLAG ANYTIME.

 

[Mizak]

Woolen, Jackson, Brown, Bryant.

Pete, “not good enough. More CBs!”

 

[Rat]

A bit of a shocker. I was calling for Carter.

Pete never takes corners this early, so this should tell you that we really, really like him.

 

[James in PA]

I like this kid he was my favorite corner. But I'm not gonna lie. I am really disappointed. I wanted Richardson or Carter.

 

[kidhawk]

Those who hate this pick, you’ll forget that soon enough as we may just have the best backfield in the league this year.

 

[FrodosFinger]

I called it a while back. Best corner in the draft and a hard ass hitter

 

[FrodosFinger]

Spooooooon!!!!!
LET’S GO BABY!!!

 

[Double Tribble]

He had better be an all pro.

 

[TwistedHusky]

Wow.
As a Seahawk fan, I've learned not to get too excited about the #1 picks. So I was prepared to see this one not make much sense. I'm pretty used to our #1 not turning out for us but our 5th or 7th round pick turning into an 5 year All-Everything guy.
But...
I've also learned not to underrate Pete or JS in the ability to find the stud CB in a big collection of CBs. If there is a star in there, they are likely to get one. Shocking to see this be the #5 though. Wow.
