Yeah, I am also not buying it that the Raiders will stand pat with O'Connell. Regime change usually means large investment in a QB soon after because lack of a good QB is often what leads to regime change.
I'm not even sure how I grade the QBs yet and hard to judge where QBs will fall round one this early. Could be they can land their QB by moving into the top ten rather then top 5. Seahawks don't have the draft capitol they had last draft which makes decisions to move up harder IMO.
Yeah, the only one I would be happy about is C Williams... Not really sold on Maye...
Correct. I will say Chargers would be the best landing spot this year with Herbert and his offensive weapons. A good HC hire with a competent OC/DC that team could make a fast turn around.
My issue with C Will is his fumbling issues. He's a solid QB but with faster linemen and different blitz packages thrown at him, my concern is happy feet, panic and than losing the ball.
Lose out they may not need to move up into the top 10.
He plays like Josh Allen... But there is no way I'd want to give up all that draft comp to move up to grab a QB... I expect us to be drafting in the 14-18 range at the draft so I can't see us moving up... I could only see us "maybe" considering it if we had a brand new coaching staff...
I don't see that happening, winning out probably is a higher probability.
Lose out?? C'mon man, the chances of doing that with the final 3 games against Titans, Steelers, and Cardinals are probably less than the chances of winning all 4. As much grief as our own fans are giving this team, it hasn't lost to any bad teams this year. The Rams at 7-7 have the worst current record of the 5 teams that have beaten us.
I agree I wouldn't throw away 2 more firsts for C Will. 14-18 range is the target but wouldn't be surprised if Seattle landed in the 8-12 range.
Nothing like mediocre football
All 3 of those games are slop. Sure Seattle should beat them but with our horrible play calling it's also likely they could lose which I'm fine with.
Moving into top 3 is just to expensive from where their draft position will be this year. Top 5 likely also to expensive. Top 10 would be spendy but MAYBE doable but is a QB worth paying the toll still available? IDK. Drafting a QB in later rounds doesn't give me much hope. Catch 22 I guess, last draft the Seahawks were in a much better situation to wheel and deal Top 5 pick, had multiple first and second round picks in the 2023 draft, all their 2024 picks.
Well of course losing any of those games is possible. It's the NFL, and bad teams win games almost every week. And for sure, our final 3 opponents are all bad teams (Steelers are 7-7, but their QB is now Mitch Trubisky). Doesn't mean winning them is a lock. But the chance of losing ALL of them is massively remote.
Seattle is also a mediocre team. Yes chances are remote to lose out but we need to lose out.
If they decide to trade him, they won't even get one 1st. If they would get a 1st or more, they wouldn't be trading him, now.
There's always 1 desperate team just on the outside of the playoffs that think they can reimage him. Vikings come to mind.
