If you even somewhat follow the Seahawks you shouldn't be getting your hopes up for a 1st round pick lol. That said, what a night tonight will be. 2 2nds and 4 (FOUR!?!?!?) 3rds.

Seattle needs a lot of depth/help in the secondary/linebacker/O-Line/D-Line department so I expect us to use em' all. I just want Obi Wan... if f'ing Green Bay takes him I'll be pissed.
I know, I'm excited for these 2 rounds. The FO has set themselves up to dominate the draft today. The conventional wisdom is you expect players picked in the first 3 rounds to be starters at some point early in their careers, and we have 6 shots at the board in that range now. The entire UW LOB is still on the board as well as plenty of other really good prospects. The Browns were the story of round 1, and I think the Hawks will be the headliners tonight with all those picks.

I could see another trade down at 34. Not drastic but a few spots if there's a team willing to pay a nice premium to make sure their guy doesn't get taken, just like the Bears' panic from yesterday. GB is actually in the catbird seat for a deal like that, but being right behind them is good too. The Jets are there at 39, may be interested in Kizer, and they have 2 3rd rounders.

I can see us trading up our second 2nd round pick. Trading down our first and trading up our second has been a common occurrence the last couple of years

It is kind of like we have four to five players available that we like with first round grades, if we trade back our first and use the picks we gain to trade up our second we could land two of these players, if we stay put, we only land one

Greg Bell - Think #Seahawks are choosing between #UWHuskies CB Kevin King, Alabama OT Cam Robinson with 2nd pick of round 2. And that they'll take King.

Believe #Seahawks didn't trade down twice, all way out of round 1, to then take an offensive lineman in a weak class of them at top of rd 2.

Five picks between #95 and #111. Who does that?
If use them all, it will be the most picks used in the 1st 3 rounds since our 1st year in the league with the expansion draft extra picks awarded.

Wouldn't be surprised to see them take Lamp actually.

6 picks on day 2. If Seattle hits on 3 this has been a good draft for them. Lots of talent left. Time to build some depth.
Overall grade last night A.

i have a feeling we will see them trade a 3rd and a 7th to pick up a 4th and 5th or 6th ( depending on where the picks are ) so either a early 4th and early 6th or a late 4th and a late 5th.

Kevin King has been my guess at 26 for weeks leading up, so being able to trade back twice, stockpile picks, and him still being there today is fantastic.

I hate to admit that the 9ers had a perfect day 1 though. They absolutely fleeced Chicago

I agree on SF, but keep in mind they have a ways to go in catching the Hawks. That being said, with Lynch and Shanahan in charge it may be sooner rather than later.

We do need another corner in the worst way, I"m about tired of the injury plagued sub-par corner play we've been getting opposite of Sherman for a while now...

Cam Robinson ? Nick Saben is saying he's the best O-lineman he's ever had at Alabama...

King, admittedly because I've seen him play so much more than Obi. Would not be disappointed in either though.

I'm just so down on how little enthusiasm there is for the Olinemen in the entire draft. Maybe if we get our guy at 34 then use a couple picks to move up and grab Cam early-mid 2nd.
