My neighbor just committed suicide. Draft seems numb now. Signing off..hope we draft Higgins tmw

Holy crap. I’m sorry bro. 

Jordyn Brooks being a 1st rounder is very surprising to me.  Good player, but surprising to see him go so high.

Seeing the reaction here, I’m starting to understand why he does

He called the fans idiots for disliking JJAW. He called the fans idiots for being happy Ryan Grigson left town. I remember his snarky attitude.

"The guy is a great personnel man, some clueless fans think he sucks because the Eagles didn't draft well" then he proceeds to go to the Colts and be horrible.

Sometimes he's right, sometimes the fans are right. But he acts like fans don't watch football and know a good player when they see one.

53...I want another WR.  

I would consider trading up in round 2 as well.

There are so many interesting WRs, but none that I am obsessed with getting. Trading up for Mims or Higgins would be interesting, but I’m not overwhelmed by them. Shenault could end up being great or forever injured, he would be a gamble. Adding Hamler would really signal a different direction for the offense, but can a guy with his size be more than a role player?

I think I’d rather just stay put and go after someone like Claypool, Edwards or Duvernay.

Brooks before queen wow

Seahawks have to be the smartest team in the room every year. Fortunately for them they hit pretty often.

The draft analysts who are crushing the pick are pure film guys. They have value, but they also don't provide context. They often have RBs in their top 20 (LOL), overvalue production and don't consider analytical testing. 

Just look at this. No kidding Reagor looks bad.

 

He does have concentration drops dude. It is on the reports. It is on the film. Not saying it is a bad pick. I can see peoples concerns. 

I think he could blow up if used right. His 2018 film is better too. Freak athlete. Destroys the weight room. 

I like that Reagor has DJax as a teammate.  One of the things I like about Reagor is his burst.  He uses that for YAC.  Desean can teach him how to use that for separation.  I don’t think anyone does that better than Desean in the league. Lull them with speed, get a moment of looking away, with a stutter or a look back and use the burst to separate and leave the DB behind. Awful to try and cover that.  

Already liking the draft without Joe Douglas.

Claypool would make me happy.  Duvernay I'm not sure I like until round 3.

I was mostly joking. He is absolutely grating and hard to listen to/read, so no argument there. Him and Roob are probably the top two who have no business being on twitter or reading comments on twitter.

Agreed. Joe would’ve played it safe with Jefferson. Give me the boom or bust

Every college WR has concentration drops.

I wouldn't count on a lot of great mentorship from Desean.

I'd be stunned if Queen isn't the pick by the Ravens.  Just seems a logical pick for them.

And quite frankly with the holes that need to be filled, the correct answer.

desean has up to the third play during the first game of the season to show him...  after that desean's out for 14 games.

We run a ton of 12 personnel and can bully teams in the middle of the field. 

At worst with Reagor, we tell him to run fast in a straight line forcing safeties out of the box where Ertz/Goedert can win 1 on 1. This just makes sense. 

Can have verticals on both sides of the field with Desean and Reagor.

Me too. 

 

Queen to the Ravens was highly predictable.

I'm not talking about Reagor, I'm talking about Caplan talking down to us "underlings" like he always does. He's a ****.

What do you mean?
