Two seasons I believe, one due to a trade down, They also road the coatails of the Insane 2012 draft they had Irvin/Wagner/Wilson 

2013, 2014, 2015, 2017 the Seahawks didn't have any 1st rounders. And now in 2021 and 2022 they won't have any either (barring a trade up which isn't really their MO).

They may not be the best example since they haven't experienced nearly the success they did then, also there OLINE (my main concern) was their undoing yet again this season.

Any Watson trade will likely mean giving up Chinn/Burns... aka a bad defense regressing, we would have to win shoot outs If we can get him an average O-line then go balls in on it.

If anyone has to go it would and should be Burns. We can generate a pass rush by committee and bring in specialists. Can’t replace the best RB in the league and the best safety we’ve had in years.

Pretty sure there are six other team forums where they think they're getting him too. You guys may want to chill out until there are solid rumors. You'll just end up being sad.

@Verge is legit and mostly spot on. Rap is legit too. The only other team that has been concretely linked to Watson is NYJ (for now, anyways). I'm still not sold on it happening, but I do think it's gotten to the point where it is a realistic possibility.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
