Do Seahawks regret picking Taylor over Jalen Hurts in 2020 draft?

[Mizak]

Picked Taylor in 2nd round with 48th pick. Could have gotten Hurts. Didn’t Seahawks need a QB then?

Meh. We don't really need 734 threads on what if's and why didn't the Hawks do this or that.

"Team 3" threw $#!+ fits when the Seahawks just showed interest in Mahomes and then in Allen. Imagine what would have happened if they had actually drafted a QB prospect that high in the draft.

This. It would have unleashed an epic storm.

You are judging Hurts based on one good game.

You seem to have missed plenty of bad games.

We will see how this pans out but it isn't a given that Hurts is going to prosper.

Nah, lets work the things we have. Playing time is everything.

I’m just guessing the answer is no. Reports are that JS liked Allen and was ready to trade 3 for the right to draft him #1 overall. He also liked Mahomes and would have taken him if the chance arose. Hurts is not a player I have heard them wanting. So, no. We could do this for every single QB that has shown even a modicum of success in the last five years. It’s an exercise in futility.

No. Hurts is not a great QB. The Eagles are just a stacked team.

I'm still not sure what to make of Taylor, though. He looks pretty lost in his new role, which is troubling considering the team is relying on him as a threat off the edge.

Taylor and Brooks and everyone else for that matter is learning a new scheme, it's not going to be perfect right from the get go..

And for that matter they had practiced for a running QB all week and got Jimmy G instead
