My ironclad prediction is as follows

2 firsts

2 seconds

Brian Burns

Jeremy Chinn

Ive been very vocal about my thoughts on 2022 draft class, hell I may have started the trend if you go back in the draft forum and look at the old QB thread near the top.

 

  • Personally Id rather use ANY&ALL draft capital that would be used on Watson, on QBs while keeping the players. The 1st in 2023=QB, 2nd = QB etc etc. That means I have a 1/4 or 1/6 of hitting on the QB rather than paying Mr. tiny towel. Plus that QB is on a rookie deal, if I hit on more that one, I WOULD TRADE ONE FOR A HAUL. IMO and all

Lol is that a serious question? The most recent Super Bowl champs haven’t had a first in like 7 years…

Thats an aberration not the norm and plus they have drafted really well leading up to that point. 

 

We are looking at no firsts or seconds for a while and we are going to be up against the cap for the foreseeable future

Well, there are rounds 2-7, undrafted free agents, regular free agent signings and other trades. It’s very short sighted to think that the only way you can build a successful team is to draft guys in the first. And how often do those guys even hit? 50% of the time maybe?

NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah reports the “expectation around the league” is the Seahawks will trade for Texans QB Deshaun Watson.

Seattle has been exploring trade scenarios for Watson, with Watson expected to be traded ahead of the new league year now that his legal situation is resolved. The Seahawks have the draft capital for a Watson trade after moving on from Russell Wilson, which landed them two top-40 picks in April's draft. Watson is seven years younger than Wilson and would allow Seattle to contend this season while setting them up for the future. The Panthers and Steelers have also been connected to Watson, who has a full no-trade clause. Watson is still subject to the NFL’s personal conduct policy, but there’s a chance the league waits until his civil cases are resolved before making a decision. Sitting out of 2021 could work in Watson’s favor of returning without a suspension.

If the proposed trade goes through we will not have firsts or 2nds for a time and we will have holes on the oline, dline, linebacker and safety positions as well as having to sign moore on top of cmacs crazy ass deal.   Maybe you can see a way out of this mess if we trade for watson but it looks like a lump of poo to me.  Giving up our best defensive players and multiple years of day 1 and 2 picks is a tough hole to dig out of

I mean the whole picture is one of the best HCs, best defender since LT, offensive that changed the whole league. Unlike Marky Herniay they draft super well in with 2-7 round picks. Overall coaching staff is great. Thus FAs want to come there too. Robert Woods was meh at Bufflao and once he came to them, he was just as good if not better than MVP Kupp prior to this year. Ramsey is best cover CB in the league. Whitworth found Tom Bradys vampire blood formula.

Well if oline and a bad defense rhule us out, they rule Seattle out as well. Hope we enjoy Darnold and Kenny Pickett and then some other rando QB in 3 years.

      a tip of the cap to the Special Juan

      Thanks !

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.

      I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
