The Athletic article on Ickey (eggplant emoji)

I remember seeing an interview with him a few months ago and he was asked about how much he enjoyed pancaking people and who he specifically remembered dominating. He gave a diplomatic answer(basically he wasn't going to name names) but you could see him light up thinking about destroying opponents.

That is something we have lacked since Norwell left. A dude that just craves violently dominating the guy in front of him.

Take it from Proudiddy.  I hate using first rounders on OL, and I fuging love this pick.  I thought there was absolutely no way he fell to us...  something finally fell in our favor and we have a franchise tackle for the first time since Gross, with the potential to be the best we have ever had.  

*SHWWWWWING!*

Less agile?!?

Gross ran a faster 3 cone shuttle and 2 more bench press but Ichy got him on size and straight speed. Look it up, not a knock just using our best as the comparison. Gross was really agile. Very close acceleration. I was looking it over last night. They play similarly, smart and mean with a loads of talent. 

Edit: Like it's really close, again not meant as a knock.

People probably don’t realize a 4.93 40 time is faster than what 99% of people posting on this board could put up. And he’s 6’4 320. Just a freak athlete 

I ran a 4.8 at 165 in HS and was considered a decently athletic avg HS football player. Lmao that 40 time at that size is freakish

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
