They have some really good drafting and I bet they end up taking a player we really want. Seahawks have done some weird stuff in the first round when they have actually picked there of late: Last 4 first rounders (they trade out of the 1st a lot) have been Rashad Penny, Germain Ifedi, James Carpenter, and Bruce Irvin. No doubt, the Okung/Earl Thomas year worked out for them, but that was 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 I'm going to chime in too here. Acting like you have only one first when you have two is stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they have been less medically conservative than other teams when it comes to drafting people with foot issues (e.g. Lacy, Biegel). I know they are extremely conservative with head/neck injuries but it's conceivable that heart issues are a different matter. It's a question of whether Sweat's deal is potentially catastrophic or merely requires management, which I will leave up to the doctors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you not just take your top player at 30 regardless of whether or not you had 12? It makes zero sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with you now. He wasn't saying **** about what base was. Whether we agree what Ford can or can't do, it's the general opinion they didn't want him to play 3 point primary for that money and that's all golf was repeating. It didn't have anything to actually do with 43 personnel in terms of how many damn DBs are on the field lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you not just take your top player at 30 regardless of whether or not you had 12? It makes zero sense. Edit: I'm not saying take a "weird or luxury" pick. There's a huge difference between realizing you have two firsts and acknowledging that gives you more options and making a "weird" pick.... You don't treat it identically when you have two firsts. You also don't do something stupid. It's not one or the other here No. It 'might' LET you take your top player at 30. That's the whole ******* point. NOBODY is saying they shouldn't take the top player as far as I understand it. There's a thought that maybe you can "splurge" on a highly rated player that you might not take because you need to lean more to need because you didn't already really someone that helped you fill it. I know this is going to be taken as I'm now saying we're strictly drafting for need first but that's not what I'm saying. But whatever lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't make any sense. Ford's position does not change. He's a 7 in a 3-4 and a 7 in a 4-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whatever lol I guess it depends on what someone means by "luxury" or "splurge." But I guess, you'd be taking that player anyway, hopefully?

Think a fair number of Packers fans wanted him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
