Any news on BBK?

[DomeHawk]

It's a Seattle thing.

Well, I think most of the PAC-12 knows who he is, too. So any football fans on the west coast probably knows the label.

:snack:

I get it, his initials aren't exactly a household name but:

2018 Pac-12 Football Scholar Athlete of the Year
2018 Pat Tillman Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year
2018 CoSIDA Academic All-America Second Team

In fairness, John Schneider didnt know who he was either.

Baloney, he was training with B-Wag before the draft. Schneider knew EXACTLY who he was long before that.

In addition to that, the UDub and Seahawks' organization have always had a good relationship.

its a legitimate question if you think BBK wont make the roster. It's a lock.

 

[McGruff]

So serious.

Schneider mentioned in the post draft interview that he was watching a Husky practice and wondered who #25 was.

The Husky staffer next to him scoffed . . . "That's Ben Burr Kirven. You know, the guy leading the nation in tackles . . ."

Schneider said he was like, "Oh yeah, Benn Butr Kirven. I knew that."

 

[McGruff]

its a legitimate question if you think BBK wont make the roster. It's a lock.

I disagree.

I'm not saying he WIll get cut, but hes on the bubble at a deep position.

He is at risk.

 

[McGruff]

Cody Barton
57 LB 6-2 237 22 R Utah
Ben Burr-Kirven
55 LB 6-0 230 21 R Washington
Austin Calitro
58 LB 6-0 240 25 2 Villanova
Justin Currie
47 LB 6-2 230 25 2 Western Michigan
Shaquem Griffin
49 LB 6-0 227 24 2 UCF
Jawuan Johnson
46 LB 5-11 224 23 R TCU
Mychal Kendricks
56 LB 5-11 240 28 8 California
Jacob Martin
59 LB 6-2 242 22 2 Temple
Barkevious Mingo

4 locks in Wagner, Wright, Kendricks, Barton.

Then BBK in a pile with Griffin and Mingo and Calitro and Martin.

 

[Chukarhawk]

not that that serious bro, its a game! Mingo, calitro martin are the odd men out.

 

[McGruff]

Martin? Not a chance.

 

[pehawk]

Martin is legit

 

[vin.couve12]

No, wait. The Earth's great mystery as to what a BBK is still needs to be solved. Is it truly acceptable to even mutter those letters?

You don't utter the letters.

You phonetically pronounce them.

Google search...

Go on...

 

[McGruff]

BBK performance

 

[McGruff]

3.3 stars out of 5.

Unlikely to make the roster.

Its science.

 

[fenderbender123]

What does Burger King have to do with the seahawks?

 

[seabowl]

He's good but not as dangerous as Teddy KGB

 

[scutterhawk]

I'm wondering why it is OK to call a rookie that may not make the team "BBK" like everyone on the planet would have a clue who that is??

It's a Seattle thing.

He does play a mean guitar, though.

BBK's a baller for sure. Will he make the team? Who knows but he's got a shot. Good article on him here: https://www.sbnation.com/2019/3/26/1826 ... -nfl-draft

Don't be ridiculous, I never came close to implying that. My gripe was with the lazy thread title of BBK for a rookie tweener.....nothing more than that.

The man in charge of Wilson and Wagner's contract negotiations.
