It depends on how the draft falls. There may be better value at 14 than the available tackles. You are dead set on making a lineman work in one of our picks. I think that is the wrong approach. You only have to look at Ruskell's drafts to see that (Spencer, Jennings, Jackson, etc.).

Hi guys! First ever mess on here, so if it sounds like BS, plz, forgive the euro guy

I consider myself as the biggest hawks fan in belgium, as i think i m the only one. Here, when ppl talk about football, it s about a sport where players actually play with their feet

I read what u guys said about the draft. Lots of interesting stuff. I ve been a big seattle fan for only 5 yrs, and u get way more extensive coverage (not even 1 seahawks game was broadcasted this year) than i do... so my opinions will probably be pretty irrelevant.

But here s what i ve noticed. Since 05 and the SB run, we always drafted D men with our 1st pick... And our O fell from prolific to pathetic. I was pretty surprised that we didnt take a LT last year (tho i really hope Curry turns out to be a great player). I think we all agree now it was a mistake. Big walt s getting old, and our OL is terrible. And a bad OL makes ur QB look bad, ur RBs look bad etc... + i completly disagree with the guy sayin OT s tough to draft. It seems to me, based on recent succes by other teams that OT is one of the best evaluated position for high draft picks. I really hope we can fix that thru the draft or FA, although, this uncapped year doesnt seems to be a good one for FA (i m not sure i understand everythin in that area). The OL is the biggest concern !

As i read, the OL class is pretty poor, so i dont kno what they ll do. How do u adress a need with a thin position class?

In the other hand, the DT class seems very rich. Shouldnt we go for one of those big guys? with our stellar LB group, a big DT would be pretty effective... Tubbs was a bust, Bernard s gone. Who do we have? Terril? Mebane? the green bay guy?

I would be pretty happy too with the Walt predictions. Would give us great players, filling needs... but once again, we have so many to fill...

I have seen another mock draft that was sending Bradford and Spiller in Seattle. wat would u think about that (2 O guys for the first Carrol draft, idk...)? Matt s gettin old, and i d love to see another Chris Johnson in seattle. As the College coverage is pretty poor in europe, i havent seen those guys playin, so i dont kno much bout hem...

damn, draftin s really an art !

yep there should be 3 OT and a OG at the 14th spot to look at.

It seems like a lot of mocks out there have us taking Spiller in the first. 5 of the last 6 I looked at.

Now maybe it's just me, but it seems like last years michael crabtree "hoopla" all over again.

What do ya'll think... real good chance hawks will target him, or is it just idiots who know nothing about the hawks trying to make predictions again?

12th McLovin · #20 02-05-2010, 03:56 PM

if Anthony Davis, Bruce Campbell, Derrick Morgan and Earl Thomas are all off the board then I would take Spiller, but that won't be the case. I want Earl Thomas if we can't get Berry, or Davis or Bruce if we can't get Okung, but Derrick Morgan over either if he's still there. We can get a guy like Pierre Thomas or Chester Taylor as a free agent, so I can't see why we have to take Spiller.

phaZe · #21 02-05-2010, 06:43 PM

A few mocks I have seen have Eric Berry falling down to 6th. If he is there, the Seahawks have to take him.

SeahawkWag · #22 02-06-2010, 12:40 AM

we cannot waste a pick on Okung he is overrated
watch his game film

I would be shocked to see Spiller drafted by the Seahawks. Alex Gibbs has a history of making lesser lineman and running back work great. I can also see. The Seahawks trying to move down to around 20 if they can pick up a third rounder because they could get T. Mayes (A big Saftey, which fits the new regime, and played for Carroll or maybe Mike Iupati G from Idaho) both are long shots IMO but think theyare more likely then Spiller.

Moving from the 14th down to the 20's should give the Seahawks a 2nd round pick, not a 3rd, but it all depends on how badly the other team wants the 14th.

The Brett and Brian Show · #25 02-06-2010, 04:01 AM

Phaze- I said around 20 not in 20's. I'm thinking 18,19,20 which dropping back to the 20th spot is a 250 point difference which is equal to the 68th pick. The 4th pick in the third round. Since the team we traded with would more then likely be sending over around the 80th pick they would Likely send over their 4th rounder or other compensation to the Seahawks as well.

14th- 1100 points
20- 950 points
80- 160 points
117th-90 points

12th McLovin · #26 02-06-2010, 06:37 AM

Taylor Mays is terrible

12th McLovin · #27 02-06-2010, 06:38 AM

and Okung isn't overrated, he's the next Joe Thomas

True, but I think they should try for a 2nd first. The other team might be a situation where they will give up more than what the value chart says.

The Brett and Brian Show · #29 02-06-2010, 08:03 PM

Oh, they will try. But if the get a second it's likely to be in next years draft. They would love to get into the third round this year where there is some good value to have. They will get as much as they can in any trade.

I wonder if it would be a good idea to get the lower pick in the 1st this year and a 1st for the next draft, but seeing as though there could be a lockout, it might be a bad idea, but having two 1st round picks in two consecutive years can quickly turn this team around if they are used right.
