Your not concerned about reports of not being a hard worker ?
I haven’t heard those reports ! Oh oh.. He plays like a beast, but that could be a problem once he gets paid… Just comes down to character

that was put out by todd mcshay apparently, makes me wonder if he is blowing smoke on behalf of a team so carter drops a few spots.

There is no reason to listen to any of this noise right now. We have the bowl games and various all-star bowls and the combine. If there are real questions about his desire, it will come out.

That’s a good point, little deceptive gamesmanship

What if Houston decides to pass on QB at 1 and takes Anderson followed by the bears taking carter?

Trade down or take the top qb?

Why would McShay do anything to jeopardize his cake position? He's made millions off this. Draft positions aren't even set yet. Seems like a stretch to me...but who knows?

He's a journalist, putting their thumb on the scale is what they do best. Its in their best interest that certain teams do well and certain teams dont, like smaller market backwater red state teams.

Just depends if the QB is worth the risk, but no matter what Seattle needs help on that front 7 desperately .. Wouldn’t surprise me if we trade down, BUT if a defensive talent is there with a top pick we gotta address that… Usually when you’re in the top 10 you wanna nab that elite talent…

Espn has our chance at top 5 basically locked in now:​

updated:

i

3. Seattle Seahawks (via 4-10 DEN)​

Average draft position: 4.3
FPI chance to earn No. 1 pick: 0.9%
FPI chance to earn top-five pick: 74.3%
FPI chance to earn top-10 pick: 99.6%

3. Seattle Seahawks (via 4-11 DEN)​

Average draft position: 2.9
FPI chance to earn No. 1 pick: 7.7%
FPI chance to earn top-five pick: 97.8%
FPI chance to earn top-10 pick: Greater than 99.9%

The chance at #1 skyrocketed, though its still very low.

If it fell that way I would want to trade down, but I would not rule out taking young.

Imagine that... RW is leading the NFL in sacks.. I was just talking to a friend at work who is a diehard Broncos fan and he's blaming his OL for RW's sacks... At what point will people stop blaming their OL for RW taking so many sacks? He still has 2 more games to go... This quote from Schlereth today sums it up...

Schlereth takes the O-line’s side.

“He holds onto the ball too long. I bet you over a third of the sacks given up in Seattle over the last 10 years were directly attributed to Russell, and it’s the way it is,” Schlereth said. “… That dude needs to throw… I don’t care how many times you pat (the football), it’s not going to burp, the thing’s not a baby. Throw the freaking thing.”

Crazy thing is Wilson has 2 less games than Geno and he has been sacked 10 more x's... If he hadn't missed those two games, he was on pace to getting sacked 65 times this season!

Geno has been having issues holding onto the ball to long this year also and it really has shown up more lately. His game has regressed and has been just meh lately. He was getting it out quick earlier then he started getting a big head and his game has bottomed out. He is back to the MEH again and my god he is staring down his TE/RB and WR when HE throws a bad ball or when HE takes a chance he shouldn't and INT lol. Let him walk he is a fine Back-up but is not built for a starting job. There is nothing there, I bow to him say thank you Geno you been fine for who you are as a QB but it's time to move on.

Wilson takes the 9th longest "time to throw" and Geno is at number 10.


As you can see Geno is right behind Wilson in "Time to throw" but the big difference is WR's for Wilson suck lol.

Add Derek Carr to the list of QBs available in the off-season. As that list grows, the cost for any one of them (to include bringing back Geno) might be coming down with the increased supply. Good for Hawks.

Possibly... The only downside to having Carr hit FA now - would be if some team gave Derek Carr a huge contract... It would set the precedent in FA for QB's... And then Geno could leverage that contract to Carr when negotiating his...

Carr would be the big name hitting FA so imo, that could drive up the market a bit... Before that, Geno would've been top dog... I think most teams would favor Carr over Geno...
