One of the best defenses of all time . Walter Payton?The Bears won a SB in 85.. How did that happen?
I was looking at the mocks and they had Minnesota taking McTurd in the 2nd.True, but if I'm going to bet 50 bucks on who is going to pick a better qb : the guy with a first round pick or the guy with the third round pick ? Dropping my bet on the first rounder. I completely agree that it's a crapshoot. But I want to pick with as many options as possible. Now if a team decides they like Harry McTurd out of Poopstain University the most and they think he will be available on day 2 or 3 , they that's cool.

I don't think they should force quarterback early if the best they're going to get is an arm-limited prospect like McCarthy, who would have a snowballs chance in hell of being appreciably better than Geno Smith currently is and would have a low ceiling anyway
Sorry, but McCarthy has plenty of arm. I see alot more upside to his game, then anything Geno offers. McCarthy shows more poise, and has more ability making plays off script.
Gotta invest in the o-line for sure. Was hoping we'd have a rook to line up with Cross and Lucas this year .I was looking at the mocks and they had Minnesota taking McTurd in the 2nd.
Seattle addresses the offensive line and it will make a huge difference.
This^ I thought this when I watched his highlights and mentioned this a couple of weeks ago. His arm strength concerns me. To put it in hockey terms, he has a muffin of an arm.I like McCarthy a lot otherwise, but even in the second play on that highlight clip, he's got to fully step into that and do a full windup to hit that sideline go route. There's no effortlessness to his passes. It's likely to cause trouble down the road if he has to wind up like that to get the ball down the field or put zip on intermediate balls. I worry about his out route balls and middle shots floating. It'll be harder not to get picked on by NFL level safeties.
If he can rework some of his mechanics and find some additional zip, it'll pay dividends. I know we've talked about this before, but I just simply see him as a prospect that is limited in that one regard when projecting him to the league.
I realize the worst thing I can do is make QB evaluations based on the exception (e.g., the absurd "we don't need to draft a QB before the sixth round because that's where Tom Brady got picked")...but I think Purdy probably has the most mediocre arm in the league and he's doing pretty well.This^ I thought this when I watched his highlights and mentioned this a couple of weeks ago.

True, but when I watch the film, I just don't see it there with him. I am by no means an expert, but there is something that doesn't give me confidence with him.I realize the worst thing I can do is make QB evaluations based on the exception (e.g., the absurd "we don't need to draft a QB before the sixth round because that's where Tom Brady got picked")...but I think Purdy probably has the most mediocre arm in the league and he's doing pretty well.
But we don't have the type of system or innovative coaches who can succeed with that limitation.I realize the worst thing I can do is make QB evaluations based on the exception (e.g., the absurd "we don't need to draft a QB before the sixth round because that's where Tom Brady got picked")...but I think Purdy probably has the most mediocre arm in the league and he's doing pretty well.
I think McTurd will end up a crappy pick.Man this McTurd-guy seems to be getting a lot of hype recently..
Oh, I TOTALLY agree. Any QB selection should go hand-in-hand with a new coaching staff that wants to work with him. That's one reason I hope this team finally rips off the bandaid and replaces Carroll this offseason.Im

Yeah, No Shit!Man this McTurd-guy seems to be getting a lot of hype recently..
Yep.Gotta invest in the o-line for sure. Was hoping we'd have a rook to line up with Cross and Lucas this year .
Still though, Geno or Lock aren't the long term answer. Geno is older and at his ceiling and Lock is Lock. Now I'd take a 23 year old Geno with a monster defense and deal with his occasional Genoisms.
Mel Kiper is in cahoots with the Vikings to make everyone think they want McTurd. My ouija board says they take a punter.
And for the record, I'd wear a McTurd jersey .
But i think you’re missing the spirit of his post.That is not a winning philosophy. "Plug and play until it sorts itself out"? Who do you think we are the frickin Browns. Seattle hasn't missed on QB's, if they see their guy they need to do be all needs to go get him! He'll as bad as the Hawks are playing we may end up with a top 10 pick. At that point Williams & Drake are in play! Plug & Play, damn your funny!
I thought we would be further along with the line by now, even with the Lucas injury. I'm not expecting the Holmgren line, but seems like we can't field a decent line year to year. They will play fine this week then it's a turnstile the next. Maybe that's a coaching issue too.Yep.
If Seattle could address the interior of the line they'd be a different team.
Maybe Oluatwami (sp?) Will start , then maybe get a Mauler or two to go with Bradford and of course all the injuries they'll have.
