I think this will be a shootout.
3, 88, 89, and 16 is going to lose their minds with deep shots.
Brady will cut us up with underneath stuff and cover-3 busters to Gronk.
It's going to be another close game. Hawks win on a game winning field goal by redemption man Haushka.
I hope.
Didn't see this posted, so here goes...
Fun little read about the Seahawks draft room and how they handle the logistics of the UDFA recruiting/signing.

Leaked old draft notes from Raiders... interesting to read in hindsight. Includes some Seahawks players.

Dam, I had Lawler penciled in to take the 5th spot over KW and KS, but now McEvoy as a big target will make it a tough call.
If McEvoy can play WR, Safety, and ST, he could provide a lot of value for a single roster spot.
Was just listening to Brock/Salk interviewing Schneider. They asked him which UDFA has the most upside. He answered, Brandin Bryant ...as DT and FB. That would be one nasty lead blocker.
He looks like Fred Jackson, which is fine, I suppose. I gotta admit I would rather have Tyler Ervin, his speed and explosiveness just shows up more on the eyeball test.
Wow. Seriously, congratulations to the Sweezy clan. Late round pick, converting from D-line to O-line, and now on to get some serious dough on his second contract, impressive.
Though, I won't miss his late unnecessary roughness penalties.
I would love this draft for the O-line picks. I would be ecstatic for Martin or Coleman at 26.
D. Jones looks like he can be a contributor, particularly with Irvin likely leaving. However, when I watch his tape, he tends to fail to finish his tackle. Some good coaching is needed.
