Kenny and I will be doing a live broadcast just before the #26 pick so stay tuned. In the meantime here’s an open thread…
#1 Los Angeles — Jared Goff (QB, California)
He reminds me of Brock Osweiler. Both players in college were capable of sublime accurate throws and maddening multi-interception games.
#2 Philadelphia — Carson Wentz (QB, North Dakota State)
Wentz was one to watch last summer and while he lacks top-level college experience, he has an intriguing skill set and he won’t be expected to start early.
#3 San Diego — Joey Bosa (DE, Ohio State)
He was regarded as the best player in the draft throughout the college season and now he’s the best non-QB to leave the board. Smart move.
#4 Dallas — Ezekiel Elliott (RB, Ohio State)
Zeke is pretty much ideal in terms of frame and skill set for a running back. Impact player. What about the defense though?
#5 Jacksonville — Jalen Ramsey (CB, Florida State)
Ramsey is incredibly athletic with nice size. Is he a corner or a safety? This is a good scheme for him.
#6 Baltimore — Ronnie Stanley (T, Notre Dame)
Ian Rapoport reported after this pick that someone hacked Tunsil’s Twitter account and posted this video. Why risk your career in this way? Why video this? Why is someone trying to sabotage your career?
#7 San Francisco — DeForest Buckner (DE, Oregon)
The 49ers now have Chip Kelly, Arik Armstead and DeForest Buckner — maybe they’ll bring in the Duck next? (only half joking)
#8 Tennessee — Jack Conklin (T, Michigan State)
The Titans trade from #15 to #8 with Cleveland, dealing a 2016 third rounder and a 2017 second rounder. Tunsil’s slide continues.
#9 Chicago — Leonard Floyd (LB, Georgia)
The Bears gave up a fourth round pick to move up two spots, trading with the Buccs. They take Vic Fangio’s latest project.
#10 New York Giants — Eli Apple (CB, Ohio State)
Terrific cornerback prospect. Does not get beat deep. Smart and just gets it. A good athlete too. Three Buckeye’s in the top-10.
#11 Tampa Bay — Vernon Hargreaves (CB, Florida)
Smaller corner, very agile but bites on plays and can get baited into mistakes. Can he play outside at his size?
#12 New Orleans — Sheldon Rankins (DE, Louisville)
The most explosive defensive lineman in the draft. A fantastic pick for the Saints. How did he last this long?
#13 Miami Dolphins — Laremy Tunsil (T, Ole Miss)
The fall ends here. Based on pure talent this is a total steal. Fair play to Prime for asking the questions after the pick.
#14 Oakland — Karl Joseph (S, West Virginia)
Earl Thomas #14 overall. Karl Joseph #14 overall. I bet he wears #29. He’s recovering from an ACL. A fun player to watch.
#15 Cleveland — Corey Coleman (WR, Baylor)
Electric receiver, truly dynamic and a touchdown machine. Plays with attitude. He’ll give Cleveland a spark.
#16 Detroit — Taylor Decker (T, Ohio State)
Big tackle — very tall. Another Buckeye in round one. Good character but average combine and lacks explosion.
#17 Atlanta — Keanu Neal (S, Florida)
Fantastic player and he deserved to go here. He’s that good. Watch this guy go in the NFL. Great pick.
#18 Indianapolis — Ryan Kelly (C, Alabama)
Athletic and tough but not explosive. A good test case on the importance of stuff like TEF. He’ll be one to track in the NFL.
#19 Buffalo — Shaq Lawson (DE, Clemson)
Shaq had a terrific short shuttle test — similar to Joey Bosa. Major production and he plays with an edge.
#20 New York Jets — Darron Lee (LB, Ohio State)
This is a tremendous pick. Ideal scheme fit in that roaming LB role Todd Bowles loves. Playmaker.
#21 Houston — Will Fuller (WR, Notre Dame)
The Texans traded up one spot with Washington and gave up a sixth rounder. Fuller’s a big play, downfield receiver with great character.
#22 Washington — Josh Doctson (WR, TCU)
He’s a prolific catcher and a nice safety net for Kirk Cousins. It’s a bit surprising they went receiver over D-line.
#23 Minnesota — Laquon Treadwell (WR, Ole Miss)
The Vikings needed a reliable pass catcher for Teddy Bridgewater and Treadwell is great value here.
#24 Cincinnati — William Jackson III (CB, Houston)
The rush on receivers forces Cincy to take yet another first round corner. Every year.
#25 Pittsburgh — Artie Burns (CB, Miami)
The Steelers, running out of options at DB, take the best remaining corner available.
#26 Denver — Paxton Lynch (QB, Memphis)
The Seahawks move down to #31, acquiring the #94 pick from Denver (round three). They now have #90, #94 and #97 in round three. Good move for both teams.
#27 Green Bay — Kenny Clark (DT, UCLA)
A player scouts like — but he isn’t a pass rusher. Not convinced he would’ve been an option for Seattle.
#28 San Francisco — Joshua Garnett (G, Stanford)
The Chiefs trade out of round one and the 49ers take a pure guard to try and replace Mike Iupati.
#29 Arizona — Robert Nkemdiche (DE, Ole Miss)
Chandler Jones + Robert Nkemdiche = a risky but possibly scary off-season for Arizona. Two guys with similar character concerns.
#30 Carolina — Vernon Butler (DT, Louisiana Tech)
The Panthers love big, athletic D-liners. That’s another big body up front.
#31 Seattle — Germain Ifedi (T, Texas A&M)
As expected — and as mocked — the Seahawks take Ifedi. Thoughts to come shortly so stay tuned.
Good Luck, Have Fun….
24ish hours until the Hawks first pick…. Wooo!…..
think tomorrow starts at 4pm pst
23ish hours until the Hawks first pick…. Woooo!….
Any thought on the Seahawks draft clues?
Two of the videos talk about having a dog and another talks about going shirtless/modelling underwear. What prospect owns a dog and like to rock the tighty whities?
Yeah, I’ll carry this over here from the last thread:
Hmmm… something to do with Dominique Easley, who was bit by his pitbull…? Wouldn’t really be a draft clue though I guess, unless the fact that he went to Florida points to another Florida guy: TJ Greene, Keanu Neal…
Jonathan BULLard! (high energy)
Maybe the trade down from the first clue is now linked with the Browns (Dawg Pound)
There’s a new one up too.
It’s Rodney Dangerfield on Johnny Carson from ’83.
I was trying to figure out if there was any prospects from carson ca. I dont think thats it now tho. I only seen the first gotta watch the others now
The bill burr segment he regrences walking out the tunnell at the rose bowl. Could be anyone who played in the game or a ucla player.
Rodney dangerfield said something that sounded like peed er right out. Could be a wide out maybe named peter, or something
Someone who gets ” no respect ” …laraven clark?
So JLC has us trading with the Aints out of the 1st round. I’m guessing we would get their 2nd round pick, which is like pick 46. We should get at least their 3rd rounder to drop that far agreed?
If they make a move for a QB… maybe. Teams always overspend for QB’s so let’s see.
Rumor is Dallas and Cleveland are trying to trade back into the back half of round 1
Leading up to the draft I’ve been reading up on potential high ceiling late round/UDFA types. Any thoughts on Rico Gathers & Wendell Williams?
Love Rico Gathers as a TE prospect.
Hey Rob, how far does tunsil drop after accidentally posting that video on his twitter acct?
It is without doubt the weirdest draft thing I’ve ever seen.
Has someone sabotaged him? I mean you can’t accidentally tweet a 30 second video.
That Ole Miss program has a lot going on and some different cats that is for sure.
Is it confirmed to be him in the video? Bizarre
It’s him
I bet a friend filmed it and posted it without permission.
That has to be someone sabotaging him. It will likely work. Weird stuff.
Maybe Nkemdiche is throwing him under the bus again.
What happened?
https://twitter.com/ImNotLit/status/725835936462966785
That was tweeted from Tunsil’s account about 5 mins before the draft began and then quickly deleted.
Man that was a stupid thing to do.
This situation is surreal. Who knows how far he’ll fall.
Seahawks War Room just went live…
http://www.seahawks.com/videos-photos/live
If Tunsil falls to 26, draft him.
Everyone remember the rules of the draft threads?
Please don’t post a pick until the commish actually announces it. No spoilers!
🙂
Agreed.
Jared Goff is a ram
/golfclap
The irony with that is that I’ve always thought he’s built a lot like Sam Bradford.
We get to welcome him to the NFL in week 2
I think teams looking to leapfrog the likes of ARI/DEN possibly for a QB (DAL, CLE and NO come to mind) will make a move and we’re in the perfect spot. I think if Lynch isn’t drafted by NYJ, trade is imminent.
I saw something on a fan site saying DAL might want to leapfrog CLE to draft Derrick Henry…
I’m getting excited to see our trade down… lol
see ya week 2 buddy
I’m listening to the 710 espn audio draft feed. Anyone listening to anything better till Rob and Kenny go live?
Its pouring down rain in Vegas and my DirecTV just lost signal… WTF??? lmao
Its the rath of God for thinking you’re getting the Raiders.
LOL
I’m a true Hawks fan I just recently moved to Vegas… People here want a team, the industry of the city doesn’t!
710, back and forth with the NFL network. Rob/Kenny is always the best to listen to during the draft. Love Danny/Dave though.
And NOW the draft starts.
we are so lucky to be in a position where we don’t have to mortgage the future on such a risky pick. Thank you Paul allen and PCJS!
The bad part for the Rams is they didn’t have to mortgage their future. They could have stayed at 15 and easily taken Lynch, who will probably be better then Goff or Wentz.
Fine with me, though.
I live in Dallas and have absolutely no idea what the cowboys are going to do. if I had to make a guess, I’d say Joey Bosa
Same, and same. With Bosa gone I say either Buckner or Ramsey at 4. I was hearing they wanted to trade back a few spots and pick up Bosa.
I say San Diego picks Ramsey… That is my prediction.
Wait never mind
Chargers probably had Tunsils name on the card then someone shows them that video!
JLC said he’ll be shocked if Seattle doesn’t trade down.
Thinks it’ll be with NO who’ll move up for QB Paxton Lynch.
Great pickup for San Diego.
Dallas is gonna go ‘Zeke or Ramsey.
Yup. That’s my guess too.
Nailed it, bro
Joey Bosa is a Charger
Geez, never saw that one coming for the chargers.
Yeah, not a great scheme fit for the 3-4.
There’d also been absolutely no buzz around him, Buckner was firming as the pick in the last week. Heard nothing about Bosa.
Yeah no kidding. What is his position? Is he going to be a 5 tech or a rush OLB? That really doesn’t seem like it fits his skill set. I know it is about talent acquisition but many really solid players have disappeared in bad scheme fits
Rush linebacker.
Weird one for me too. Doesn’t seem to fit a 3-4 at all? Maybe they’re going to mix things up, start playing some hybrid fronts?
lol, well so much for my prediction for Dallas.
Still gotta go DE for Dallas though. Guess that’s Buckner?
Could be Sheldon Rankins.
That’s a Jerruh pick.
Woops, reply fail. Meant to be a new post.
Well played, Chargers. Well played.
About Draft clue #3 Rodney Dangerfield
With all the fat jokes maybe referring to Laquan McGowan? I guess we do look for unique traits…
Did Dallas just let the clock expire on them?
Forget that, NFL.com now says pick is coming in.
ZEKE is a cowboy
Jacksonville must be ecstatic with how the draft has gone so far.
I knew they wouldn’t go Ramsey. It’s just not sexy and JJ is all about the sexy pick.
Yup, Jerruh definitely trumped Stephen on this pick.
Anyone else absolutely hate this “instant draft grade” thing. My goodness, NFL Network…
The whole grading a pick before he even plays a snap is so ridiculous.
So Jacksonville goes Ramsey. Yes?
I think so…
You would think, but I would not be shocked with a Rankins pick.
Yes must be
Jags have to take Ramsey don’t they?
Elliott rookie of the year is my prediction and over 1500yds. If I have the choice of Elliott or Gurley I take Elliott all day long. More durable and complete back.
Nah. Romo won’t make it three games. Once that happens, defenses will key in on the run and it’ll be a really long season for dallas.
betting Ramsey goes to JAX now
I’m coming to dallas to win a super bowl…
Sorry bro. You are going to be really disappointed.
JAX just had the best player in the draft IMO fall to them. If he wasn’t there I bet there would have been a trade with someone. Maybe they take Rankins instead…. That would be awesome!
Why does Bosa have to have a designated position?
You move him around the formation.
I don’t think Bosa is that kind of transcendent player. If he went to a better defense- then yes. I think it could create an identity crisis for him
He doesn’t have to be transcedent.
A lot of these guys aren’t finished products.
They’re still growing, getting bigger, rounding out their game.
It was a surprise, but obviously they see the special in him. Personally, I think Buckner could be due for a slide.
That is what I am saying. I think he would be better served to focus on one position to improve his game. If he is playing out of position, or having to learn a whole bunch of new positions- that could really stunt his growth. I don’t think his natural one position to start with is best suited in a 3-4 scheme
Only 21 picks to go! Haha Yeah right!!
to see who we traded our pick to? LMAO
Man, I think Dallas is going to regret that pick. Not saying Elliott is a bad RB but just seems Ramsey could have more impact for them, what with Morris and McFadden in the backfield already. There defense needs an impact player.
Could’ve had a defensive stud and Derrick Henry, I totally agree.
Now there’s a smart team.
This will be the last time for a while that we see JAX drafting in the top-10
That’s 2 instant impact defenders Jacksonville just added.
Dante Fowler, jr. and the best athlete in the draft.
Yeah, that pick made a ton of sense. Plus they got Malik Jackson.
Ramsey to JAC is a great pick for Bradley…
My thoughts exactly, good for Gus Bradley!!
KJR and 710 ESPN coverage is lame. Hurry up and save us, Rob.
He seems like a really good kid. Really happy for JAX. I want that team to be good.
Chucky’s advice to Ramsey – “Get some Earl Thomas video”, lol.
People have penned in the Colts or the Texans for so long that they didn’t realize that the Jaguars have slowly surpassed those two middling teams, and should be the odds on favorite out of the AFC South
totally. Something tells me I’ll be watching more than a few JAX games this season
Jacksonville Jaguars…cat that lands on its feet. This guy looks electric
So good for the Jags, I’m really happy for those dudes. Planning on watching a lot of their games this year, they’re going to be a seriously fun team to watch.
Gus gets Sherman at CB
Brisk pace this year.
Jacksonville Jaguars, Adopted second team of the SDB community.
Stanley ahead of Tunsil.
The fall begins.
Tunsil is going to drop like a brick of pot brownies
wonder if that video had anything to do w/ Stanley getting picked over Tunsil
I have no doubt.
absolutely it did
The ESPN dudes have not mentioned the video
There it is!
Shefty just mentioned it
Yeah they are on it now. Right after I posted they are really jumping on it.
And now Conklin has been drafted over Tunsil. Yes, the video has hurt his draft stock.
Tunsil couldn’t fall all the way to us could he…
It would be the steal of the draft. I don’t care about gas mask bong guy. It’s legal here. I would want us to sprint to the podium to get Tunsil
How funny would it be if the titans grabbed him at 15, after they were going to take him at 1?
no chance he falls this far, but he’s going to drop. Whoever posted that video cost him some serious coin.
The money is always in the second contract. Maybe he did a little self sabotage to get to a better, more efficiently run franchise. I mean draft picks are always looking for a way to game the system.
‘Tis interesting, indeed.
Conklin goes…
How many more teams need a tackle? I will lose my shit completely if we got him, still complete fever dream territory of course
Stanley over Tunsil. I wonder if that Twitter video hurt him. Safe pick with no character flags. Tunsil is the better player, but his career could be marred by dumb decisions.
I’ll say Buckner goes here to the Whiners.
I think that would make too much sense for them. Probably something weird like eli apple or something.
boom!
Good call and Kelly knows him well. Good pick for them.
Baltimore’s pick just goes to show you that we have no idea how teams feel about prospects.
Point is, Baltimore wants O-lineman that are STR. Strong, tough, reliable.
Wouldn’t of thought that about Stanley, but I rest my case.
LOVE that dude’s jacket. look’n sharp!
If Jake Conklin falls I take him. Dreamland I know.
Chip loves his Ducks.
That was a great pick by SF.
Awful pick.
Can’t get off the ball, no pass rush, doesn’t impact games.
My god, how stupid do you have to be as Laremy Tunsil tweeting a video of him hitting a bong with a gasmask on just before the draft. d0h!
As if Randy Gregory and Josh Gordon wouldn’t run through the mind of any prospective employer. He definitely cost himself some dough today. But on the stupidity quotient that’s gotta rank up there with guys getting high the night before the combine knowing they’ll be tested.
Can’t see him getting past 15 though…
No way he would have done that. You couldn’t possibly be so stupid. Someone made a pile of cash to sell that clip
Someone hacked his account.
If your talking a bong hit, put the phone down my man.
Buckner is one word and I’m gonna spell it out for ya…
S-A-W-F-T!
good fit in SFO then.
I disagree.
He’s a late 2nd-early 3rd round type talent.
Good pick for their scheme but not a huge difference maker
To be fair he was a one man defense for the Ducks all year.
And you can’t teach that!
TEN traded up to #8…
Well played Titans. Well Played
Has to be Tunsil.
Tunsil is tumbling big time.
trade alert trade alert
Titans move back up…
Going to take him, bong and all
Will tenn trade up for the gas man? He might have dropped to them. Maybe it is Conklin.
Wow, nice call. Tunsil is in trouble.
Maybe Tunsil will drop to us!
Man CLE is collecting draft picks like Pokemon cards
Moneyball in full swing out there. Good for them. Now they just need them to evolve (hehe) into some good players.
wow
OMG. WHUT!?
Jack Conklin to TEN… Interesting!!!
Tunsil keeps dropping…
whaaaaaaa Jack Conklin over Tunsil still?!
Tunsil will need that gas mask to just stand near his smoldering draft stock
haha nice one
YES YES drop to us Tunsil, I feel the hate…
Crowd buzzing another trade this is fun!
Never a doubt in my mind that Tennessee was taking an O-lineman even if they had stayed at #1.
You gotta protect Mariota. He’s fragile.
I dont think anyone could have survived the amount of hits Mariota took last year
We Samoans are not fragile
Tell that to your boy who gets rocked every other dropback and crumples like a piece of aluminum foil.
Jake Conklin was always my 1st pick but I knew he was a dreamland guy for us and we all knew it.
One of the more interesting drafts in a long time so far.
well Chicago just traded up, guess he goes there
That was an expensive toke for the young man.
Conklin is a beast, but man Tunsil is dropping crazy. I think teams see something they clearly don’t like. I wonder what the over under is of who gets drafted first, Nkemdiche or Tunsil.
Yeah, they see his twitter account tweeting a photo of himself hitting a bong with a gasmask on. If I were thinking about hiring him, I wouldn’t like it either.
Definitely makes things interesting. Wash St, he can do that legally. Go Hawks!
Legal in the state but not in the NFL.
OK, bears have to be taking Tunsil. Yes?
Ironic if it’s him after the Walter Payton Man of the Year announcement.
Chi trade for…Rankins?
That was my thought but here’s Floyd
I wish Goodell would walk up like Vince Mcmahon in the WWE
Haha!
Funniest thing I heard all day.
Then the crowd could chant, ‘You got…No chance in hell!’
That would be awesome
Walter Payton what a man!
You guys watching the live feed on Sehawks.com?
JS ain’t talking to scouts.
It’s a team doctor or physchologist.
Nkemdiche or Tunsil?
Oh god please be Tunsil, please please please
Tunsil at 26, Kim at 56.
All I am going to say, and I know this cuts against the grain of practically all reason, but it’s entirely legal in Washington State. Go Hawks!
It may be legal in WA, but he will still get suspended by the league for smoking pot. More than anything, you have to question his judgment. A stupid mistake, or signs of someone that can’t tell or doesn’t care if he is making a stupid mistake, like Josh Gordon.
Is there anybody else with character flags that we have been watching? Spence maybe
what is this a circus?
Man that drop just continues
Floyd is overrated. Plays tall. Didn’t win with a speed move
Leonard Floyd to da Bears. People will call it a reach, but good fit for Fangio’s defense.
Thbey could have stayed put at 11 and had him easy.
Yeah, why in Green Hell would Chi trade UP to draft Floyd? Gee whiz
Better them than us, unless Fangio makes him an all pro.
Awful pick Chicago.
Talk about what is a guy?
Not a lB, can’t put his hand in the dirt.
No strength, weak hands, not a pass rusher.
He’s Barkevious Mingo 2.0
Damn, Tunsil’s agent is having a spaz in damage control mode right now trying to prevent his client from falling further.
If Tunsil falls to 14 -18 range would Seattle move up for him?
sounds like teams are taking him literally off their draft boards. He very well might fall to the 20’s
I’d still take Rankins over any other player left on the board. If they trade up, I hope our for him. I doubt they do that though.
Man Jack and Tunsil are still on the board, crazy
And the drop continues
Giants don’t take a d-lineman. This is an entertaining draft.
Holy shit Apple went WAYYYYY too soon! Great for us!
eli apple at 10 seems right
this next pick is one of the more interesting ones for me. What will the saints do?
The Apple goes big.
I see what you did there…
I know all about the Big Apple cause I’m in New York City (not in Seattle)
Another awful pick!
Yes!
You guys do realize what’s happening right?
don’t say it man. this is like no hitter territory stuff going on….
Draft is falling beautifully from a Seahawks perspective so far.
Lots of players still on the board.
Giants draft another Eli. Jack and Tunsil still on the board.
The Colts would be LUCKy if Tunsil fell to them….
Rankings just keep falling, keep falling please…..
Rankins to NO… I feel terrible for Jack, and I feel nothing for Tunsil.
hoping they overlook Rankins but ya we will see, has been a crazy draft so far
Oh man we could get tunsil or rankins maybe, would be exciting
Too many teams for Rankins to slip past
Tunsils agent should fire himself for not babysitting that dude before the draft
New clue is up: https://twitter.com/PeteCarroll/status/725857394316599296
My life is dope and I do dope s*** – Laremy Tunsil
Thought the same, but how would they have prepared a clue ahead of time for him…?
I donn have to look.
Its Kanye West from the Dave Chappelke show isn’t it?
They knew he was falling for a reason.
I betcha they have an inside man that hacked his phone… Or maybe it was part of an elaborate scheme 😉
I don’t understand how PCJS can give a clue on their pick when they don’t know who is going to be on the board when they pick unless they know they are reaching and are 100% sure their guy will be there. If someone unlikely drops to them then I’m sure the clue must become obsolete.
Hilarious!
Or Nkemdiche
What are the chances at this point that Tunsil falls to #26? I would have to think that top 5 talent would have to be worth the risk for PCJS at 26.
Chances? 1 in 14 I’d say.
Very likely… Several teams won’t even think about touching him… IND and NYJ may be the only other teams before us looking at OT.
Twitter’s buzzing about Apple going before Hargeaves.
I’m in New York City, luke warm reaction to the Eli Apple pick.
But the puns! What about the puns!?
!!!
As well they should be.
Awesome. Thanks Bucs!
One more bad pick.
OMFG!
JS is a genius man.
New #SeahawksDraftClues
If Rankins gets past the Saints, then things get really interesting.
Apple and Hargreaves back to back at 10 and 11? What is happening right now.
Most important pick of the draft coming up. Make a dumb pick, Saints!
Lynch would be good!
Will NO take Rankins?
Not convinced they will, seems a better fit for a -43 but the Chargers took Bosa, so you never know.
Rankins gone. Now I am hoping for Tunsil. His representative was just doing some damage control. Sounded sincere could help the young man.
People need to stop saying the R word. Don’t jinx thing!
Look I am a pirate. Arrrr
Where’s the booty?
She is in the bedroom waiting for the draft to get over!
Best reply ever
I somehow really doubt Rankins will get by NO. No way. They’ve yet to recover from having junior galette walk for nothing.
Seattle is taking someone with character concerns guys.
Nkemdiche, Spence, Tunsil, Lawson (more injury), Chris Jones?
good point vol 12, might get a really talented player to fall to us
I’ll geuss Jones because of the the two dog references in the daft clues and the VMAC visit.
Gotta be Tunsil IMO
This Crazy Draft is looking Better and Better For Us!!
Don’t do it saints. Don’t do it…
they did it
Damn it!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOO
Fist bumps going on in the War Room
Pete and John both left the room
welp
fuck Rob called it! SHIT
The one time I truly wished Rob would be wrong. 🙁
same here, gotta give him props for being spot on all along
Sigh…
Stupid saints
Word is Tunsil vid was posted by his step dad and Tunsil filed suit yesterdAy. 100% unconfirmed but that’s what I was just told
His step dad better be getting ready for a whooping.
If Tunsil falls seattle get s at 26 WOW!
they showed the bong pictures wow
Well, there goes Rankins to the Saints.
If the Hawks are going to take a chance on an Ole Miss prospect with character concerns I hope it is Tunsil not Nkemdeche.
Aints win the draft.
F*CK!!! Damn you NO!!!
The dream is dead
Long live the dream
Favourite player Rankins off the board. Great pick NO!
Great pick by NO.
Never beleived for a second that he was gonna fall to us.
That photo was taken 3 years ago NFL network
he has past all drug test,
Tunsil whacking a Warren Sapp moment?
Having…
I like whacking better.
Rankins off the board. Good pick for the Saints. I don’t think anyone really thought he would get to 26.
Maybe NO will trade us Rankins for Jimmy.
Don’t panic guys.
He’s not worth a trade up, was never falling to us, and not our target.
Squeaky clean.
Kinda think it’s going to be Tunsil.
Or not.
Phins score.
Great pick by Miami.
He’s the best OT to enter the draft in a few years.
Still won’t help Tanehill… Now if they were to find a real QB watch out!
Miami gets an absolute steal the best OT in 5 years +.
Good pick for miami
Wow I am surprised Miami had a jersey with Tunsil on it.
There must have a way of squirting those letters out on the back of jersey in mere minutes.
They hot press them as the picks are made.
Myles Jack goes to the Raiders?
That would be a sick LB corps.
ok, back on track. Can’t wait to draft Jeramy Tradebackenstein
Hahaha sounds too similar to jarramy Stevens for my comfort
The best DT and then the best OT go in the draft.
The rest of Rob’s first round could still happen.
I hope some people aren’t freaking out over Tunsil and Rankins going off the board.
Seatle knows who they’re targeting.
Now I’m thinking Jones or.. good lord could it actually be Nkemdiche?
They were always going to go well before us anyway. Reshuffle of the deck chairs. Doesn’t change a thing for us
Nkemdiche is a talented dude.
He’s still getting better, nowhere near maxed out.
He needs a certain locker room.
Not sayin’ it’s us, but you get my point.
Wouldn’t hate that pick at all.
I don’t think I would either. We need that type of explosion in the middle
Tunsil to the Fins. I’m thinking Jack to the Raiders now.
Hmmm, Joseph
Gotta love how Goodell gets booed every time he approaches the podium to announce a pick.
interesting pick for the Raiders
They desperately needed secondary help. Is Joseph better than Neal, though?
Oakland just got the steal of the draft!
Talk about a fun team to watch.
Love everything about Joseph.
Well, I’m not sure he’s a “steal” at 15, but still a great pick, yes.
He’s been underrated this whole time.
Best hard hitting, pure safety in this class.
Yes, he’s better than Keanu Neal.
Underrated only due to the injury I think
Me too. Him and Keanu Neal were two of my favorites.
I was saying all year what a dope DB class this was
“Steal of the draft” Tunsil?
Would Seattle take Jack if he falls to them?
They’d better…
…not.
imagine jack, wagner, and wright…what a LB trio
Wow I love Joseph, but that is early! Perfect fall for the Hawks so far
Just saw Tunsil’s film after he was drafted. Didn’t see an instance where he started with his hand on the ground on a pass play. Wonder if he can do it. It was a problem I had with James Carpenters Alabama film when we drafted him, and turned out he couldn’t pass protect starting with his hand on the ground.
Love that pick for the Raiders! Joseph and Neal are two dynamic safeties that are going to have an immediate impact. I bet the Redskins are pissed.
Net Keanu Neal goes to Falcons
Would you take 3 years of Myles Jack for 26th pick?
A team in front of us probably will.
Would have to consider it.
There was that suggestion from La Canfora…
Rob said: “The Seahawks are in the middle of a Championship window that might only last another 3-4 years. Getting impact players to try and win a Championship now is the key.
A guy who comes in, helps make that happen and then signs somewhere else isn’t a problem (especially with the comp pick system).”
Same would be true of a guy that is only able to play for a few years
Wow, Coleman to the Browns? That’s pretty early
Nice pick for the Browns. They need a lot of pieces to get better
Getting serious in War Room on the phone. Everyone in on the conversation…
Love that pick for Cleveland.
Speed, explosion, a true field-tilter.
Corey Coleman at 15 to the Browns. Um.. I hate to kick a old dog when he’s down, but IMO, this is was the Browns are the Browns.
RG3 to Coleman…the Baylor connection.
Corey Coleman to the Browns…that poor poor man…
Oh Browns…
Good for the Dolphins. This type of antiquainted puritanical thinking will be laughable to people looking back 20 years from now. If he had been filmed drinking a beer, would it be scandalous? Sorry to break it to the puritans, but a bong hit is easily equated to a beer.
Looking back now is there anyone who doesn’t think that Warren Sapp smoked weed throughout his NFL career? Would you take that draft pick back?
I love the NFL Network cast but they are representative of some widespread reactionary thinking.
Bong hit can get him suspended beer cant
Pattern of behavior is questionable, they need players that can contribute and stay on the field
I would say 80% of players smoke week. Conservative estimate.
And almost all of them are smart enough not to film themselves doing it, much less keep the video and release it the day of the draft.
These would all be excellent arguments to the Bucs not to take Warren Sapp back when.
Now they just need a QB
This has been … fantastic so far.. trades, reaches… surprises
Don’t be shocked if Seattle trades up with Washington.
for who as the target?
Who is a worth a trade-up at this point?
Le’Raven Clark or A’Shawn Robinson. Or at least somebody with a ‘
Trade up for those two? No way.
Wow Browns take the smurf at 15. Luckily we got him in the 3rd last year. Surprised they took him over Doctson and Treadwell. Browns WR (Hawkins/Gabriel) are already tiny.
Field stretcher
That’ such a backward way of lookin’ at things I’m sorry.
The ’80s and 90s are over.
Small receivers have proved they can succeed.
You can’t touch receivers nowadays anyways, right?
Name me one big WR that was a franchise player. Please don’t say MegaTron. Dude did nothing over his career.
I highly disagree with your assertion that Megatron did nothing in his career. That is ridiculous.
What did he do?
Elevate the play of others around him? Lead his team to how many playoff wins?
He broke meaningless records, because he never won.
That’s what you play the game for right?
Or to pad your stats?
vol12 you have a lot of good takes but saying megatron wasn’t a great receiver cause his teams didn’t win games…really? the lions have been a terribly run franchise (3 top 10 WR in a row draft wise)? He is a stud WR no denying that…
Football is the ultimate team sport. Who were his QB’s? Kitna? Shaun Hill? Matt Stafford? He definitely made those QB’s better. How about the defense? Awful during his career.
How many games did the Seahawks win with Tez? One of the best DT’s to line up. Did he do nothing in his career because the Seahawks only made the playoffs once during his career?
So Barry Sanders was garbage because he didn’t lead his team to playoff wins? Teams are successful when individuals perform well in their respective roles. It isn’t all up to one individual.
Love Decker.
Dude is the epitome of nasty.
Dude is the epitome of overrated.
Decker is over rated IMO glad the Lions took him.
Looking like Seattle will have their pick of multiple OL and DL guys we all love on here.. TRADE BACK TIME :O
Four OTs off the board now.
Decker good pick for motor city.
I kinda think Atlanta will be the home for Jack. They need LB. We shall see.
If lynch gets past jets it could make our 26 very interesting.
Thought Jack might go to Atlanta. Was wrong.
Ugh, can’t believe I’ve watched this whole thing just to see the Hawks not make a pick
What else is there to do on a Thursday night?
Damn, Rob called it
yup neal wasn’t even on Mayok’s top 5 safeties, Rob NAILED him as a mid to late first rounder, how Rob doesn’t have a job as a scout with one of the 32 NFL teams I have no idea
There goes my man crush. Rob’s the man
Awwww That is a gut punch…
DQ gets his Seahawks safety.
Knew it! Neal to the Falcons just makes too much sense.
Neal. Great pick for DQ. Go Falcons.
Well…Neal didn’t go to AZ. Cheers!
The Falcons just got a whole lot tougher love that pick. Nice job Dan Quinn!
Here’s where I think we might start seeing a DL run.
wow ！ Quinn pick Neal~ Rob You are really good~
So glad the Cards did not get Neal.
Atlanta. And Jacksonville are quickly becoming my secondary level favorite teams.
Good Kelly is off the board.
You were all over that Neal pick Rob!!
The Seahawks pick at #26 is Myles Jack or a trade back.
colts better get another reciever for Luck
Ryan Kelly. Someone to keep him upright
Either I’m having a drink or I need to pee
you’re living the good life honey not me
Rob nailing the picks now
No one could have nailed the Tunsil drop, messed up a lot of boards.
Kelly is a flat out solid pick for the Colts. They need to protect Luck a lot better.
Yup, solid pick.
Hey, if anyone is into that stuff, I bet you could know who was on Seattle’s board by watching the War Room feed. I think their board is the wall right in front of them. Since the picks are high up right now, they wheel out some steps and take down a name every time one is chosen. Kid just about showed off the last one to the webcam.
Yes!
Now everyone can jump off the hype train.
Good player. Not ‘Seahawky.’
Spriggs?
Haha even better
Glad Kelly is off the board. Was really hoping that we didn’t go center in the 1st. Lewis will be fine until Sokoli is ready to dominate.
I think it was Danny Oneil picked Kelly to go to the Hawks but he was hoping that he get picked earlier so he would not be wrong.
Colts kinda had to go OL. Kelly will help Luck. Not a bad pick.
Kelly to Colts. If Butler gets past the Bills, I’m really going to get me hopes up.
Redskins must be pissed their 3 guys (Joseph, Neal, Kelly) all gone.
They could go Miles Jack.
I smell a trade back for McCloughan.
could use a reciever
7 picks to go guys!
Looking more and more like we go DL or trade down. Kelly is a player I had hoped we could consider at 26.
I would take the picks 12-17 all day over picks #1-5
It is a strange brew.
Hell, could Lawson fall to us? Shit, well no. Just taken by Bills.
Rob calls it again
No surprise bills go defense here
Lawson to BUF is a pretty good replacement for Mario Williams. Get Brady when he gets off the 4-game suspension
Shaq Lawson to the Bills. Sexy Rexy passes on Jones, Butler, Dodd, NKemdiche. Ifedi and Spriggs still on board.
Butler and then McGovern
Here we go will jets take Lynch?
Maybe.
Nope.
‘Meh’ pick for Buffalo.
He needs to play in a deep D-line rotation.
If Lynch doesn’t go to NYJ, expect trade around us to heat up!!!
Butler here makes sense
Myles Jack is rumor on local Seattle radio now
They’ve been talking it up for a half hour now.
What if the clue is Germain If-Eddie Murphy
Ooh. That’s a good one.
This Jets pick might be a kick in the balls.
as long as Goodell makes that call
I think Tennesse made the best moves getting Jake Conklin at LT.
Along with 50 million draft picks.
They have done it right. Lee wow. Now we will see about the trade deal…..
Lewan will stay at LT. Conklin should play RT.
Tunsil’s insta just got hacked, text convos with a coach about accepting money
Someone’s gonna trade up for Lynch I can feel it in me bones
I like what the Titans have done and the Browns have done so far……
get those trades going for Lynch
Jets just got their version of Ryan Shazier.
Darren Lee to the Jets. Getting very, very interesting.
Am I the only one salivating at the name Darron Lee?
Well there goes that idea haha
Maybe I shouldn’t be 5 minutes behind live TV before I post…
Darron Lee a fine pick for the Seattle protoge gm
Yeah thats it play it safe til you make the play offs
Ohio State should’ve just went pro
Ike Taylor is happy for every player selected. Good to know
draft is falling perfectly for the Hawks so far except for Rankins who was a pipe dream.
If Jones is their target they could trade way back in round 2 to get him at this rate.
Oh Texans, really??
Here comes the run on WR’s — do we take Jack if available?
Texans trade up a spot. Interesting.
WAS just traded their pick to HOU?
What teams does someone need to trade with Seattle to get in front of for Lynch? The first one I can see is Ari and the Den. Which means KC has the prime trade down pick, unless they want to draft a replacement for Alex Smith
Browns, Cowboys, Chargers, 49ers, Bears
Why did Houston just switch with Washington?
Scot McL. What a shaker
One explanation is Houston won a bidding war for Washington’s pick.
Someone was gonna swoop in and HOU locked it up so CIN/MIN didn’t get up
Yup.
Yeah, this is kinda weird.
Ifedi? They were scouting him hard.
Someone else wanted Washington’s pick ahead of Houston?
JS’ phone ringing off the hook…
Min and Cincy both gonna take WRs. Houston wanted to make sure they got their guy
Uh oh. Schneider’s working that phone.
Getting exciting!
Houston gives Oz a good target.
Now if only Oz knew how to throw the football. Bubble screens?
Wow red skins to Huston for fuller
Wow.
Great pick, that guy is smooth and explosive
Phones being answered in the war room…
Looking for the big trade down!
The Myles Jack conundrum.
Skins might very well take him here.
No to Jack. The knee is too risky for a 1st rd pick.
Pete Carroll will rub his hands together and put his hands on Jack’s knee. Jack’s knee will miraculously heal.
2 WRs gone
4 OL
2 QB
1 RB
3 DE
3 CB
2 S
1 DT
Plus Ryan Kelly
Thanks sloth
.
………
Great #2 WR for Hou. Will open up the field for everyone else with the deep speed.
i’m pretty sure the two cards sitting on the table in front of JS are trade options. There used to be three cards there so one of them might have fallen through because a player got taken before 26. I’ve seen them pass those cards around to pete and others.
just got off the phone and looks like they’re filling out another card
JS on the phone.
Hope he can get a sweet deal and get an extra 3rd
Man Ike Taylor is terrible same wit MJD. The way this is going, I hope we trade down. If Jack falls this far it’s for legit concerns about his knee.
Too many defensive tackles that can’t rush the passer. Everyone knows it.
If Paxton Lynch is on the board at #26 how about a trade with Denver for their 1st and one of their 3rds.
Yes please!
Would rather trade with cleveland for their 3 rd pick than denver’s 3 rd pick. It is about 31 picks difference.
Going live with Kenny NOW!
Vikings to take Nkemdiche. ??
Or Treadwell?
Or a short range kicker??
Webcast not working, Rob.
Could the Hawks really get Myles Jack?
Keeping my fingers crossed lol.
Wow! Cincy just got f’d!
No one wants to draft a DT because it’s loaded with depth.
Cousins will throw a lot of TDs to Doctson.
Wowwwwww Doctson to the Skins? did not expect them to not take a DT
Bengals might look to trade back now the receivers are going off the board.
Treadwell is still there… Very similar to Mo Sanu/Marvin Jones as #2
WAS selected Doctson… Interesting. Didn’t think they needed a WR
Love Josh Doctson. Good pick for the redskins
What does that tell you about the DL available if WAS goes WR when their biggest need is DT.
I can still see a run happening soon. Cincy, Steelers, could both use DT
Butler, Jones, Ifedi, Spriggs still on board. I think it could be one of these four.
Treadwell to Vikes.
Anyone getting the webcast to work? I just keep getting errors.
same
samesies!
They pull the plugn the live feed every year before they make a decision.
It’s go time!
The Myles quagmire looms. Too many good players, too few picks.
Bengals could take Jack they need some speed at LB
Seattle takes Derrick Henry. That clue with Eddie Murphy which was featured on Johnny Carson. The other guest that night was McLean Stevenson. He’s best known for his role on mash as Lt. Colonel Henry Blake..??
Well that explains why Houston traded up. To get in front of the team they traded with.
Hou calls Was “so who you gonna pick?”
Was “Fuller”
Hou “so what’s it gonna take for your pick”

rob’s live feed…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwvYKp9D8F8
Thanks.
Should be working on the site now too.
SEA trades #26 to CLE for #32 and #99
CLE selects Lynch
It would be fun times around SDB for the next twenty hours if we owned the first pick of the second round. For sure.
pretty sure this is a trade. They are now all studying the four cards in front of JS
I wonder if Pittsburgh would take Myles Jack.
Taking LBs is kinda their thing and the have taken guys with injuru concerns at the position.
Maybe. Kinda think he might fall into day 2.
I think we are going to Jack there for us, and we still trade down. I just want to make sure Jack fans are prepared.
Eddie Murphy was in “Trading Places”. Seahawks trade down…
SEA trades #26 to CLE for #32 and #99
CLE selects Lynch
We draft #1 tomorrow
And then trade down again tomorrow
Germain If-Eddie
Work that phone John, work it!
We are in great shape for JReed, Butler, Nkimdiche
JS working the phones…
Best I can tell, the cards on the table are trade options. The big laminated sheet might be a trade value chart. I’ve seen JS on the phone, look at the big laminated sheet, and grab a calculator off the table.
CIN just jacked up PIT
just pittsburgh left. in PCJS we trust
Great pick for the Bengals, need youth in that secondary.
Cincinnati just got the best CB in the draft. Hands down.
BTW, Denver is trying to trade up.
Everything about the way the board has fallen supports the trade down hypothesis. I just hope it’s for an extra third.
I can see enough teams interested to get a 3rd
Quick pick by Pitt
on the clock
Jack still on the board
Trade w denver
Wow. Rankings the only DT off the board in front of us?
Hold on. Here we go!
YESSSSS trade down
They’re probbably taking phone calls from Broncos, Browns, Cowboys, Chargers and 49ers right now.
Paxton Lynch falling is probably going to be HUGE for us in a trade down. scenario.
Well there it is
Broncos
probably got 94 or 144 and change?
I reckon we trade again.
We just traded w/ Denver!
But they still have 31!?
Check that…we have 31 now on NFL.com tracker.
Donkos trade for 26!
And we still get a pick tonight!!!
Trade!
Pick 31, and 3 3rd round picks. Love it.
Trade with Denver!
Broncos traded with us…
26 for 31/94…
trade with Denver!
Trade!
YES the TRade I Like it already.
Please be for 3rd
Wow got #94! Sick
Trade with Denver, so we still have a first round pick at 31. Wonder what we got for sliding down?
I can’t believe we got the 94th pick
pick 94 in the third!!!! WHOOOOO
Got #94, AWESOME!!
Called that trade with Denver.
I bet it’s for one one of their 3rds.
94, 98 is not tradeable
Yup #94
You said trade up with Redskins?
3RD!!!!!!!!
Have 90, 94, and 97!!!!! WOOOOOO
We could trade again from 31 for possibly another 4th
Most likely.
Best possible trade imo.
Excellent trade in my opinion.
94 pick in third round!
There must have been a bidding war for the pick
Yup. This is better than I could have imagined. My only question is if they are trying to trade #31
PCJS have some serious ammo right in the meat of this draft
Cool. Hope they use some of those picks to move up in R2 now
PCJS = WINNING!
I think we trade #31 to DAL…
Lynch is gone.
CLE, TEN and DAL all going DL. Bidding war to pick tonight
You got me by a minute, hate typing on a iPad! Hope you are right!
I would love this! (Even though I’ve spent all evening watching the draft for nothing.)
There are still a lot of great picks for us. Perhaps another trade to Cowboys so they can get a fifth year option on cook!
Why not trade out of 1st?
Not gonna get a 3rd from any teams in the early 2nd I don’t think. Got the best compensation for the smallest move down. Perfect really.
damn, was getting excited for Jarran Reed. We must know something. Maybe Ifedi or Spriggs, if not DT?
Too many good options not to trade down
Paxton Lynch confirmed. Sweet deal
Man I’m more excited we traded than any pick we could have made
Think we can get another bid war for #31 and the 5th year option on Cook?
Haha! That would be so awesome. And then trade down again for someone to pick Hackenberg
Such a great trade. If they can take #32 and move 5 down more and get a fourth then even better.
Agreed!
4 picks tomorrow, 5 picks on Saturday, and we still got a 1st rounder.
This is the genius of JS.
Yes. And I think we might trade 31 too. Tennessee and Dallas trying to get back into the 1st.
everyone praise JS
Having this great for us. Thank god we have a franchise QB.
The big question marks now are what are ARI and KC going to do
I think Cardinals might go pass rush, and KC could be where Vernon Butler lands.
I’ll be shocked if the run on DTs and DL doesn’t start now.
Oh my God are we gonna go for the window-fall-outer?
Hope not…
I’m so excited with what Seattle is going to do!
Also, Rob it was incredible how many picks in your mock draft were exactly right or extremely close to where those players were taken. Absolutely fantastic work you’ve done.
Jack feels like a cardinal pick
Butler, Jones, Bullard, Spriggs, Ifedi, Coleman and more all still available…
JS you’re the freaking boss.
Spence, Ogbah, Kaufusi
Man I feel for both Myles Jack and Jaylon Smith
Is Jack falling out of the first? Seemed like a standard blown knee which guys return from all the time. Anyone read something about it being worse?
1 more trade back, so someone can take Cook at #31
Love to see us trade down for more picks but also would like to see us get somebody tonight. Plenty of great DTs left and some of our OT targets still there too. May trade down again for more picks
I’m OK with trading out of the first round. It will just make tomorrow that much sweeter
gotta hate that they have commercials on the hawks live webcast. Gotta trade back
I think CAR goes OT
They need CB badly
They need 2 CBs
What is the best CB option left in the 1st?
Sean Davis, Kendall Fuller
Kenny Clark. Nice pick for the Pack. Will fit that 3-4 well.
Ifedi, Spriggs, Butler, Bullard, Jones still on board.
Wow…quite early for Clark. Thought Nkemdiche would go here to the Cheese.
Good pick, IMO, and nice fit for their D.
That’s a great pick for Green Bay.
Clark is a top 20 kind of player IMO.
Man
It really shows what teams think of his off field antics and his lack of production
Pack with Kenny Clark
Let’s use that extra 3rd and take a punt on Jaylon Smith
#31 for #33 and #140
I’m not convinced Seattle will trade back again.
Wouldn’t shock me, but we can trade one of those 3rds for a 4th rounder.
There’s a lot of talent lot. Ecspecially picking at 31, which is a virtual 2nd rounder.
We could trace back 2-5 picks and still have a lot of options
I can see them going either way, but I think you’re right.
So many options at 31 it’s ridiculous, but I think we still trade down. Bet PCJS would even take a 5th to trade with CLE
Surprised were the only one willing to trade back here for 3rds and 4ths. Everyone else has tunnel vision
Wow. Nevermind.
KC just traded…
49ers trade up for a guard oh my lord
to SF
niners trade up.
for jack maybe?
I’m thinking Cook or OT
Garnett. interesting
If by ‘interesting’ you mean stupid…
hahaha that’s exactly what i meant. 2,4, and 6 for a guy you couldve gotten anyways
I understood. That’s the same word my mother-in-law says for the same purpose.
#31 is a great spot to trade out of, there are always teams who want to jump the gun and grab someone the last pick of the first day to go to sleep not worrying about them on the board day 2. Usually its for a QB. IIRC thats how the Vikings ended up with Bridgewater…
There are really no other 1st round grade QBs.
EXACTLY… I think we move down
No!!!! At least they’re giving up some picks. Myles Jack goes here? Or do they go after Henry?
Wow niners suck
Chip, you funny guy.
Wow. What’d SF give up to get a guard?
2, 4, and 6
420 viewers
Josh Garnett awful pick
shocked Jack is still on the board…
Everyone forget about Myles Jack. Late round flyer probably
Wow. traded up for Garnett.
oi…Whiners trade up almost 10 spots for a guard. Garnett stays in the Bay.
Wow they gave all that up for Garnett???!!!! Keep sucking 49ers!
Man I can’t believe the stupidity
I think Jon Gruden just tipped the pick: “Josh… Joshua Gabbert” when trying to refer to Blaine Gabbert.
I think Hawks try and trade again. That way they don’t have to deal with the 5th year option
I hope we were’nt after Garnett. Sneaky Niners
I like Garnett, seems smart and a great guy. I don’t think he’s a Seahawky player.
If the Hawks wanted Garnett, the Niners did them a huge favor, he’s not worth a 1st rounder.
Garnett is kinda surprising, but then again, one pure OG goes in the 1st every year.
This pick reminds me of the Laken Tomlinson selection last year. No tradeback though.
But trading up almost ten spots to draft that one first round guard? Ouch.
Chiefs robbed niners
Don’t like the pick, but I still like our trade better.
Can’t complain with this pick and love that we got the extra 3rd
Looks like the TEF method is in play. Love the options for day 2
Rest up Rob your baby gets up in 90 minutes
4th and 6th. Niners are so dumb
It’s ok, it’s not like it’s a deep draft or anything, or that guards just as good can be had in the 3rd
Spence going here?
Schnieder on the phone…
Garnett to the hated niners… I truly devastated.
Garnett isn’t worth a 1st rounder.
anyone catch what SFO gave up to move up?
their 2, 4 and 6
SF got KCs 2. SF gave up their 4 and 6.
no. KC got SF 2, 4 and 6
Vernon Butler
Holy crap, miners gave up 2nd 4th AND 6th for a guard. Boy do they suck, they need more players not a guard
JS on the phone. filling out a trade card
looking at the trade value chart (pretty sure what that is)
JS is on the phone again…
What’s cool about having 3 thirds, we can move into the 2nd as well.
Tons of options now.
Lol of course Arians takes nkemdiche
Nkemdiche, interesting. He and Honey Badger can hit the town
And Chandler Jones
Nkemdiche is a Cardinal…
The other ‘ole miss character concern to the birds.
I thought we’d take him at 26. Kimm-dee-chee
Well, well, well Nkemdiche has a bit of a Darnell Docket look to him.
And panthers need a CB but all the good ones are gone lol
Which is bad news for the Seahawks because then they’ll turn their attention to OL or DL, positions of need for the Hawks.
Yes! Let the cards deal with Nkemdiche.
probably one of the best places for him actually
Phoenix, though. I could see that being a bad town for a guy like him. Plus, his panther is gonna be too hot.
Laughing my ass off thinking about Robert NK frantically flailing about over his over heating black Panther.
2 QB
1 RB
4 WR
6 OL
SEA is trading out of the first…
Clowney 2.0
here we go, I’m going out on a limb… we’re trading down again
Man Seattle has already won this draft as far as I’m concerned.
It’s like we found a 3rd rounder in our couch
I smell another trade down.
Nkemdichi says he does better against zone blocking teams.
Not at all happy about Nkemdiche going to Arizona. If he pans out at all, could terrorize the Hawks for some time.
Not like we have problems with quick DT terrorizing our soft underbelly. Scary.
Yep, this pick is being traded. Say too much activity in the war room.
Type of player that crushes Seahawks weak o line.
That’s a great for ‘Bob’ ‘Kemdiche.
Everyone said Mathieu was garbage too.
Great locker room scenario for him.
He needs to mature and cut some cats outta his life.
Yeah, that’s a scenario that could get scary in the NFC West
Matthieu was a different story, no one question his effort and he didn’t have half the red flags as robert. That being said great pick
Mackenzie Alexander
Why is nfl making rookies were ugliest hats ever
Spence, Butler, Jones, Bullard, another billion players still on the board. Trade down!!!
Just heard a radio rumor that Jack has a Lis-Franck (spelling?) injury, which is serious.
Pinkins had the same thing his rookie season.
I had that. Still can’t walk right after 2 years.
The big issue with Jack is the Cartilage is super brittle and microfracture surgery could do more damage than good, but its more than likely what needs to happen
Shit
ugh, Butler to the Kitties.
Crap. Good pick Carolina.
Damn. Beastly front line, for this year anyway.
Butler just stolen from us by the Panthers
Arizona pushing all their chips into the middle of the table to win it this year.
How many DT does Carolina need
Both come off contact at same time.
Probably only keep 1.
Vernon Butler, that’s a bit of a surprise
Don’t start feelin’ some type of way over Butler bein’ off the board fellas.
Vernon Butler to panthers
My bet is Ifedi.
Jesus I am physically sick right now
No WAY when Carolina picked Butler the entire draft room started clapping because Carolina didn’t take their guy!
Bremen hinted at us taking Henry
Pick is in!
Wow they just said the Seahawks traded to Browns and then recanted
Spence, Bullard?
John and Pete were on the phone and the war room clapped. I think there’s a pick soon…
Seahawks making a pick. If ifedi it is
Hugs in the War Room… Pick is in
The pick is in.
Derrick Henry, Noah Spence, maybe O-line?
ROB IS THE MAN!
Rob Called IT! ROB you are the MAN for making all those predictions!
I hope you’re right Rob.
BOOM ROB good call
Yes! Rob nailed it!
Germain Ifedi. Great job calling it, Rob Staton!
Not a big fan, but not unexpected.
Ifedi!! I’ll take it.
Woot! Rob! TEF!
What picks do we have?
Ifedi plus a 3rd! Winning!
Awesome relief. Oline help and a guy I like a lot. #GoHawks
Long live TEF! I think Rob deciphered their draft formula.
We arguably have bookend, freakishly athletic offensive tackles now. I say Gilliam wins the LT job and Ifedi owns the RT spot. Who do we draft to address the DL now?
Rob has cracked the their code. One of only two players selected who wasn’t invited to the draft tonight. They do their own thing.
Now go get me some Kaufusi and some McGovern
Rob, you’re really good at mockdraft picks for seahawks!
So what to to w the next4 picks tomorrow!
Where will he play, RT or LG???
Well…. there it is. You’re about to see how it is with this guy.
He’s a raw, physical freak.
He’s built how modern day O-lineman should be.
Your right. We’re about to see this guy prove to us that he played in a system down in Texas that didn’t fit his profile or style.
MaroonGoon!
He can be built however you want. The guy doesn’t have the skills or baseline ability to be an NFL lineman. When we are watching another holding call or false start, it will be okay because he is so big. All you had to do is watch some tape. Or listen to anyone talk about what he brings. He is 6’6″ and 324 lbs of no punch, high pad waist bending. You call him ra if you want. I see a guy who can’t play. Anyone can be as excited for this pick as they want. But I remember the last physical freak that we drafted from TAMU that was “raw”. Seems like deja vu all over again
Sorry ya’ll.
I had to take a break.
So damn excited.
To quote the great Daniel Bryan, ‘yes…yes…yes!’
So excited, I see you turned it down to 1
Competition for Britt and Webb and another 3rd rounder. Look at the dudes in Robs 100 Hawk list and start drooling. Also have ammo to target and move up.
If anyone’s wondering, trading a third could move the 56 up to 40-45.
Honestly though, I think I’d rather have the extra pick.
Oops. Thank this comment sections buggy
Underwhelming, but nice call Rob
Trading places Ifedi Murphey it was
Shoutout to Kenny sloth for figuring out that clue.
It was help for RW too.
I got my 1st pick right!
We still coulda gotten him three to five picks down. Must not have been a willing trade partner. Or they were committed to making sure. We probably won’t get Bullard now. But some combination of McGovern, Fackrell, Ervin, Dahl, Cajuste, Haeg, and any number of DT’s remain likely. A trade up to get Bullard would be just amazing.
And with three picks in the third, we have the capital to move up in the second. Amazing.
At this point, here are the picks we have left.
2-25(56)
3-27(90)
3-32(94)
3-35(97)
4-26(124)
5-34(171)
6-40(215)
7-4(225)
7-26(247)
I could see us moving up in the second.
What was the trade ?
Swapped 26 for 31 and picked up 3rd round (94) pick
I think it was a win win for both teams… no losers. Broncos get a nice QB and Seattle get an OL.
Updated mock for round 2 and beyond
Round 1 (1) GERMAIN IFEDI, OT/OG (check)
Round 2 (1) BRONSON KAUFUSI, DE
Round 3 (3) CONNER McGOVERN, OG / TYLER ERVIN, RB / TRAVIS FEENEY, LB
Round 4 (1) DEVON CAJUSTE, WR
Round 5 (1) ISAAC SEUMALO, C
Round 6 (1) JAMES BRADBERRY, CB
Round 7 (2) BRANDON ALLEN, QB / KEENAN REYNOLDS, RB/ATH
Where’s the inside D-line?
Get Bullard or Kafausi. And I’m good wth trading up to get one of them. The other players are going to be there. We need to leave this draft with a DT / DE hybrid most of all now. And then an interior lineman. The rest will fall to us.
Id be pumped if I turned out like this
I’d take that
People on Twitter complaining about the Ifedi pick. I don’t get the complaints. Seattle needed some serious offensive line help, Ifedi has the potential to be the next kelechi osemele, and we got another third rounder in the process. I am very happy. What were people expecting?
The signing of Tavaris Barnes should have been the real draft clue that the Seahawks would wait on d-line help.
Not a fan of the pick. He physically looks great. Massive issues and a softer demeanor. A LOT to fix if we think he’s going to do much in the NFC West.
I sincerely hope I’m wrong, but I just don’t have a great gut feeling about this one.
Not saying I’m right and you’re wrong. Just my opinion. Thoroughly underwhelmed by the player and the pick. At least we recouped a 3rd in the process.
Well at least I am not alone. I think we will see crystal clear come preseason. Not just any big guy can play in the NFL
Yeah, that’s what I kinda thought today.
I like Coleman better as a tackle prospect. Both athletically and character-wise, not to mention he played for a downhill power running football team in college. Especially the fact that he said his favorite thing to do is run block. Granted he has medical but would have rather went d-line in the first and Coleman in the 2nd or traded back again and still taken Coleman with our first pick. Unlikely at this point they take Coleman AND Ifedi.
If Colenan is available in the third they could take him.
I would have been happy with Ifedi at 26. Ifedi and a 3rd! That is Schneider magic.
It is really hard to judge how college spread offense linemen will translate to a pro-style offense against NFL-caliber competition. The are all projects in my mind. Get the guys with superior physical and athletic profiles like Ifedi that you think you can coach up. Cable worked with Ifedi at the TAMU pro day so he must have believed he can coach Ifedi’s technical issues.
Great call Rob…unfortunately.
Not confident this will work out, but great work nailing this thing.
For me, getting that 3rd round pick was awesome! We got the guy we pretty much expected AND got a 3rd round pick in a deep draft. I’m pumped.
Personally, I hope Fackrell lasts until our second rounder. Love the idea of three 3rd round picks though. I would imagine tomorrow we’ll get a RB and DT, and potentially another OL and edge rusher.
Day one is in the books and it has turned out great!
Agree: Ifedi + 3rd is straight gravy.
The Seahawks are like the Bizarro World version of the 49ers, who traded 3 picks to move up and take Joshua Garnett.
So grateful for John Schneider and Pete Carroll.
It was a good move! I also am glad the Seahawks have Ifedi on a 5 year contract, when he develops he will be worth it.
Could be LG too, on webcast Rob said could be future LT. Ifedi plus a third nails biggest hole and can hopefully find a legit contributor in 3rd or use to trade down tomorrow for another stud early 2nd. What’s not to like?
And how about Rob? Guy’s got his finger on the pulse of the Seahawks to at the very least know who is in play and who isn’t. Nailed this pick, first saying they’d trade down (which lots of people figured might be possible) and got the pick. I fully expect multiple other players on Rob’s list of potentials to be likely manana. Can’t wait to see who it is tomorrow. Who thinks they’re trading up to get Bullard, Koufusi etc?
Nice call Rob. You are the man when it comes to knowing what the Hawks think on draft day.
Get some sleep, ’cause I’m looking forward to your post tomorrow.
Rob wins the Interwebz!
Now the Hawks have 3 3rd round picks to play with. If the right prospect is sitting in the 2nd, they can consider using one of them to move up.
I hope Ifedi plays RT, instead of moving him to left guard (which is the opposite side of the field he has always played… as he was a RG as a freshman and RT the last two years).
I’ve heard Kelly is a decent guard and terrible tackle.
It makes too much sense for Ifedi to be our RT and Kelly to play LG. Looks like Britt heads to the bench.
LT Gilliam
LG Kelly
C Lewis
RG Glowinski
RT Ifedi
That’s not too bad. Lots of upside on that right side especially.
I mean WEBB.
I think Ifedi goes to LG this year. Our problems were on the interior. Not the edge.
Listened NT to Ifedi interview, talks like a Hawk. Intelligent, articulate, thoughtful responses. Part of why I love this team is how many smart players they have and develop.
Listening..
Wow! You called it Rob. You just made believers out of all my coworkers who didn’t listen to me and had no clue. Thank you for all the hard work and dedication. I’ve followed you since you called Irvin, and I’ll continue to do so even more. Thank you for bringing this collection of 12th man together. Hoping for Kaufusi or Bullard in 2nd, 2-OL and Ervin in 3rd and Cajuste in 4th. Go Hawks!
I gotta ask this question.
Please don’t take it the wrong way?
Why did some think we were trading down again?
It made absolutely no sense.
Move one spot for a 4th? We just fleeced Denver on the trade chart. Over 100 points worh of value.
Because Ifedi still would have been there five spots later. They must not have found a willing trade partner.
The guys on NfLN said that the Browns had moved back into the first round when our pick was the only one left. Then they said they were mistaken.
Supposedly Tennessee, Cleveland and Dallas were also trying to get back up into the first when Seattle made the trade with Denver. Maybe Cleveland and Dallas also wanted Lynch. Not sure who Tennessee was targeting but I am guessing they were gone by 31. I would move back 2 spots to get an extra 4th.
But, I am glad they got Ifedi. And the extra 3rd will be sweet tomorrow. There will be some good options on the D-line at 56 but I hope they get McGovern. He is the guy I most wanted the Hawks to get in this draft.
According to Schefter Dallas offered Seattle their 2nd and 3rd to move up for Lynch but Denver’s offer was better.
The trade value points always leave me a bit cold. Denver were probably freaking out about Lynch being snatched by the Cards or the Browns trading back down.
Win win for both teams really. We get the third, but they – Superbowl Champions – get a seriously talented young QB. When you consider what the Rams and Eagles gave up…
Ifedi Red Flag: Cable worked him out in College Station and loves him.
Is Cable ever right?
Yes.
Ifedi is not a desperate pick like Britt was. And it’s not even Cable’s decision to make.
Mostly, yeah.
The guys on the NFL Network all said they loved the pick and that they were all excited about this young man – has a “high ceiling” is what Shaw said.
Go Hawks!!
#31- T Germain Ifedi
#56- DT Jonathan Bullard (if available) or DE/DT Bronson Kaufusi
JS might trade up around 14 spots to get Bullard
#90- G/C Joe Dahl or T Joe Haeg
#94- G Connor Mcgovern
#97- S Justin Simmons or DT Hassan Ridgeway
#124- RB Tyler Ervin
#171- FB Dan Vitale
#215- WR/TE Devon Cajuste
#225- CB James Bradberry or WR Ricardo Louis
#247- DT Justin Zimmer
I want no part of Kaufusi. Bullard will be gone b the the we pick. I’m all for a trade up, but I wonder how far Coleman falls. I love the kid. Spence is still there… Henry is still there… Wow.
Asked if the Seahawks would have taken him at No. 26, Carroll and Schneider declined to answer
Could it have been Butler ahead of Ifedi?
Or Nkemdiche
