An open letter to the FO...

Hey guys

Firstly congratulations on the years of concurrent play offs and the multiple superbowl appearance in recent years. That said I'm a Seahawks fan that watches about 3 college games a season and I occasionally watch ESPN and read the odd draft blog so I have some advice for you.

Stop drafting players early as every single player you have drafted is a reach according to something I read on the internet. Can you please trade down until we own every pick in the 7th round and then we can get some proper value. I know you spend months assessing players with your dedicated set of scouts but I feel as someone who watched a bowl game once I can offer you a better perspective.

Can you also get Scott McLoughlan back, even though he's done nothing anywhere else he has been, so as he can take credit for anything you do because I'm angry at the world and I have a tiny penis.

Yours

Mr C Hawkdotnet.

I am sorry but this is not soccer where players come up through soccer academies around Europe and are identified when they are 16

You establish credential when you say you watch 3 college games and read the odd draft blog

So you don’t watch college and you don’t read blog after blog filled with videos so in other words you have absolutely no clue about players. You are basing it on guys that aren’t good enough to coach in this league but good enough to be working for ESPN in a time where hey fired most of their good people.

And based on this complete lack of experience you are saying the FO reaches on every pick?

I wasn’t crazy about the first one specifically because the level of opponents he played against, but I am absolutely not in a position to evaluate the draft as a whole and you should probably realize you also lack that skill....

Find one team that didn’t pick players in positions that weren’t what draft experts expected. There were first round “picks” that went in third round and the opposite happened as well

Go back and check out the two drafts McCloughan had in Washington. Also, the local guys in DC are killing McCloughan for bad drafts. It looks like Scotty C was only good when he was working with Schnider.

Even then it was debatable.

McCloughan was also involved in the 2013 and 2014 drafts.

Off the top of my head 2013 and 2014 were pretty rubbish in the grand scheme of things.

It's luck, not talent evaluation.
