2025 Draft Talk

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Also there was a HUGE run on WRs last draft.. I mean a LOT drafted. I could see maybe Denver or New England targeting one? That's kind of about it though... and Kraft is very frugal with trading for players. And after we fleeced Denver they might be done with us lol.

Possible Jets if they can't land Adams. They could get a first and third cause they don't want to piss off Rodgers.

Linebacker first round Linebacker 2nd round Run stuffing DT 3rd round Guards in the 4th ( we should have 2 4th round picks ) Trade DK, Geno and our OC for a QB. lol

Damn I wish we would have picked up Mayfield when he was DIRT cheap. He was playing for the BROWNS! No QB can play for that team NONE! Not even Brady would have had success lol.

Hell i would feel better losing with Howell out there.

Same, I want to see what we have in Howell. IMO we're drafting top 10 this year. I don't see another winnable game on our schedule outside of the Jets and maybe one of the Cards games. Let's not forget Seattle got two gifts two weeks in a row from the refs (the ball from my view was clearly above the white line before it started to move in the Giants game, and the muffed punt was definitely that... refs/NFL screwed up) and a kick return. But take those LUCK calls/plays (kick return is kind of that - this isn't Devin Hester or Percy Harvin) and San Fran/NYG DESTROYED US. At home. These weren't one score games where a missed field goal made a loss. These were BLOWOUTS. Seattle completely dominated.

3 turnovers against San Fran (should've been 4 - punt, could've been 5 - fumble bounce) to 0. That game should've been 43-13 or something. And the Giants should've been 30-6 2/3 into the 4th quarter.

Get Howell out there and see what ya got. Trade DK - I'm done. Geno is locking onto him. Whenever we mount a comeback it seems it starts with Lockett/JSN. Get 2 2nds... and if Howell is our guy you can snag guards, ILBs, DTs up the ass.. get rid of Geno and save that cap to resign some younger guys on their rookie contract, and move on. I'm also getting tired with how we need like 4-5 yards to get a 1st down, and Geno is looking to throw 15+ yards down the field. WTF? You need FIVE yards. Go find a TE or a quick slant with JSN. WTH?

And on the OL... Tomlinson has gotta go. He looks so sluggish out there lol. On screen plays he's just kind of trottin' around like a fat kid in a candy store distracted and skippin' around with no clue what is going on. The fact we can't run on a 3rd string DT and Collins is ridiculous. I get Warner is a beast but c'mon...

And get Dee Williams the fuck off this team. Not only is he returning a kick in the endzone (3 yards deep) and then getting hit at the 20 yard line and FUMBLING, but he fumbles on the punt return (he knows he got hit in the hand) and just gets up like there's no fuckin' worry in the world.... I don't care if we have to spend a 4th next year on a kick/punt return specialist... that was pathetic.

 

[Screamin12th]

What ever they are doing it's not working. First off i want to thank the TV crew for showing replay close ups of geno on many of his drop backs to show he isn't scanning the field he is lock in on ONE GUY! Geno doesnt see the field doesn't or CAN'T more likely read a defense. It's time to go Young and build for the future which we all know doesn't include Geno.

There is one problem though and that seems like Macdonald doesn't like to play young guys over vets unless they have to because of injury. We should trade DK before the trade deadline to a team fighting for the playoffs. They are the ones that will give up something for him. I would be shocked if we got a 1st for him but you never know. Sure as hell can not pay him 40 million a year and tie up that much cap space on a unique but limited WR who has attitude and fumble issues and cant catch contested balls or go up and high point it even though his is a MASSIVE man.

 

[MrS]

They aren't trading DK in season, that would signal they are forfeiting the year and they are not going to do that. He is still under contract in 2025 so theres no urgency.
If they do trade him, which i would be ok with, the WR corp goes from good to one of the worst in the league. Lockett is 80 years old and jsn is not living up to the hype at all

 

[Anointed One]

Definitely agree there. He will not be traded during the season for the reasons you stated.

If they do trade him, which i would be ok with, the WR corp goes from good to one of the worst in the league. Lockett is 80 years old and jsn is not living up to the hype at all

At WR, we would only be one of the worst in the league if we didn’t do a single thing to the wide receiver position… i’m pretty certain we would draft a wide receiver, sign a couple of free agents, etc.

I personally don’t like the fact that we’re always targeting DK with him not being that great of a route runner. It’s different if it’s Jefferson, Chase, Saint Brown, etc. Those guys are great route runners - DK is not

OL and LB top the list of needs, but haven't dived into this years draft class much beyond bad class for QBs plenty of RBs and WRs worth a look at ( but not a need for Seahawks). I usually wait until football season is done to dive in because to much changes from start of season to end of season.

I was say this to Harold.

Let's sit back and look at things.

Lucas is coming back soon
Cross is a Stud
Jerral is a Diamond. Looked very good in his games

G i can understand but we have Hayes

No trading back. I want BPA at o-line. I think it's a bit easier finding D-line help in the second round

For Banks
Strenghs
​

• Exceptional length and mass for the position, with a squatty build that provides natural leverage advantages against edge rushers
• Displays impressive initial quickness out of his stance, allowing him to gain depth quickly in pass protection
• Possesses elite explosive power, evident in his ability to drive defenders off the line of scrimmage in the run game
• Demonstrates outstanding lateral agility for his size, enabling quick recovery against counter moves
• Anchors extremely well against power rushes, using his strong lower body to absorb and redirect force
• Shows the ability to play with proper knee bend and maintain leverage, particularly in run-blocking situations
• Exhibits good hand usage in pass protection, capable of shocking rushers with initial punch and maintaining control
• Displays above-average awareness in picking up stunts and blitzes, rarely caught off guard by defensive schemes​

Weaknesses
​

• Can struggle with foot speed in recovery situations, sometimes allowing defenders to gain the edge before he can reset
• Occasional tendency to bend at the waist rather than the knees, leading to balance issues against savvy pass rushers
• Hand placement in run blocking can be inconsistent, limiting his ability to sustain blocks against technically sound defenders
• Moderate hip stiffness can hinder his ability to mirror quicker edge rushers, especially on counter moves back inside
• Sometimes overextends when reaching for defenders, leaving him vulnerable to push-pull techniques and inside counters

I like it but Seattle needs to be towards the top of the draft to get this kid. This draft feels like teams are going to load up on best WRs/O and D lines as QB prospects are slim pickings
