Predict the pick- Seahawks 1st pick is...

[XxXdragonXxX]

Trade out for a package including Yanick Nkagoue.

Option 2, pick Yetur Gross Matos.

 

[Northwest Seahawk]

Well there's players left that are good but I think you can lump what's left into 2nd round players with the exception of Taylor who's still available and worthy of a first round grade.

 

[Northwest Seahawk]

49's just continue to add great players yikes.

 

[Bobblehead]

WOW.. didn't trade down.

 

[Northwest Seahawk]

I like it LB was a position I was extremely concerned about Barton is not the answer . This is a really good player .

 

[HawkGA]

WOW.. didn't trade down.

GB screwed them by trading with Miami instead.

Some people had him projected as a 2nd day pick at best and some had him as a 3rd - 4th rounder. He's fast but I dunno, we are NOT good w/1st rd picks.

What Dome said.
To me this is another Collier reach when there were a lot of better options available at positions of greater need. But maybe they've got scoop that changes what we actually need as compared to what it appears to us we need.
I see a lot of Big12 football. I'm guessing there are a LOT of Big12 fans, along with a linebacker from Tech, very surprised by this pick in the first round.

I got the position right, but the wrong guy. I think there will be a lot of 12s eyeing the career of Patrick Queen the next several years. Hopefully it goes the Hawks way like Bobby Wagner (47th in 2012) vs Mychal Kendricks (46th) did in back to back picks.

Some guy none of ever heard of, after multiple trade downs.

I got the player nobody ever heard of part right. And the Hawks WERE trying to trade down until it fell apart last minute. So I was pretty damn close!

The only thing I think that is different compared to the Collier pick is this guys upside is waaaay higher than Collier. IMO opinion Collier reminds me of Lamar King. Brooks looks like a little faster version of Anthony Simmons.

Darrell Taylor, edge, Tennessee

Hell yeah, son! Second pick, but still, that's good.

Love the Lamar King (Collier) comp.

Whoever the Colts pick with our spot.

Nailed it, but wrong round?

Darrell Taylor, edge, Tennessee

Yeah, I really didn't think he'd last as long as he did; so I was pumped to see them trade back up. Knew which edge they wanted, just didn't quite nail the whereabouts.

My mock has Jonathan Taylor simply because I think he can come in at be a star on offense form day 1.

Russ want's stars and with question marks surrounding Carson and Penny we need a workhorse. Another advantage to drafting a guy like Taylor as he has been reliable. We don't need to think about a 2nd contract as this is an immediate starter. a high level starter. Kinda like a Saquon Barkely lite.

My understanding of P&J is they love to surprise so I start thing of Seahawky 2nd-3rd round projections

Austin Jackson OT
Ross Blacklock DE/DT
Zach Braun LB/DE
Bradlee Anae DE
Zack Moss RB

Thought this would be a fun one to bring back and see what folks here thought. Nice post above with the J Taylor pick. Frankly the consensus pick from this board was Taylor looking at the posts.

As I always say when someone says tells me the fans know nothing, we all see the same tape as the coaches and GM's so frankly they don't know a ton more than us. I had predicted Taylor as a longshot to win the Heisman. Dude was a stud in college and had all of the attributes to be a great back. The only thing I was concerned about was that they rode him hard in college and was a little afraid that he'd burn out sooner than other "fresher" backs.

Nice call to this poster (and the others that selected Taylor) on who we should have taken although Brooks is turning into a very nice pro.
