2009 NFL Draft Weekend Team Thread: Seattle Seahawks

[Joey Gladstone 33]

I wasnt even considering him. I thought he'd be gone in the top 3 for sure!

[Gepetto 1,368]

Stafford looks like a tard. I'm glad he's already off the board.

 

I'm suprised you say that. I think Stafford looks alot likeJoey Gladstone. (pics). Stafford (pic)

[phillybear 366]

Nice grab. This could change phillybear forever!

 

Are you serious?

 

We haven't even reached the second round yet. By the end of the day, I might hop a plane to Seattle so I can waterboard Ruskell's wife, kids, pets, and furniture.

[remote controller 143]

Usually by this point in the draft he is looking to get ran over.

[phillybear 366]

Cleveland just traded down. I wonder what they got. I'm sure Seattle got a similar offer, but they took Curry. Which I have no problem with whatsoever. But what did Seattle pass on?

 

Announce this trade already, Roger Smegma.

[Chasers Dawg 9]

Now that Millen is out of Detroit is the WORST FOCKING GM in the NFL

[phillybear 366]

Did Cleveland really get all that much with that trade? A 1st, a 2nd, and some players. Yuck.

 

I'm glad Seattle didn't bite on that package.

I wonder who Ruskell would have taken if Peterson was still on this team? Hmm.

[Chasers Dawg 9]

Probably a different defensive player. With all the defensive players that idiot has selected in the 1st 3 rounds during his 4 years (now 5) Seattle should have the best Defense in the history of the NFL. Instead what have we got ........

[Joey Gladstone 33]

I was away....did The Raiders really take Heyward-Bey at pick 7?!?!?

 

 

God Bless Al Davis.

[phillybear 366]

Um, is it too early to hope.

 

Chris Beanie Wells RB.

 

Also, interesting how a few other players have dropped, in areas that may or may not be need areas.

 

Everette Brown DE.

Eben Britton OT.

and others.

[phillybear 366]

The more I think about it, the more my head hurts. I am not specifically targeting any players or positions. Just give me a value pick. Something that makes sense, that isn't a huge reach.

 

Sigh. It won't happen. We are about to draft a punter.

I think we should just be happy Ruskell took the best value with our first pick. I expect some type of reach in round 2

 

Britton or Beatty would be huge

Yeah, I feel a reach coming up too.

 

Britton and Beatty are the two best OT left, but I'm not so sure that is the position I would go after. Britton would be value,. Beatty would be OK for that draft spot, but I don't know. I would feel better trading down. I can't quite put my finger on why I feel so uncomfortable with this next pick. I think we are about to do something stupid. And this is like having a later first round pick.

[Chasers Dawg 9]

UNGER

[phillybear 366]

I like Unger. I would have no problem with that pick at that spot.

[phillybear 366]

The best player available is Everette Brown DE. For what it's worth. On the clock.

 

Commercial break. MOTHER FOCKER>

[BMoney 0]

God Bless Al Davis.

 

 

al davis is like the old man who finally needs his car keys taken away from him....how many times is he going to keep drafting the fastest guy possible?....i bet he takes usain bolt in the 5th round...

[Big Blue 06 195]

Commercial break. MOTHER FOCKER>

 

I was expecting a commercial, but the NFL network stayed on the air. The Seahawks traded their pick anyway so that the Broncos can take another RB.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Trade with the Broncos.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Yeah, but ESPN went to commercial.

[Vikings4ever 550]

You guys get the Bronco's 1st next year.

[phillybear 366]

Yeah, I feel a reach coming up too.

Trade down.

[mahoney 9]

Trade down.

 

The Broncos play the AFC North and NFC East in addition to San Diego twice, at Indy and host New England...potentially a 10 loss season.

The Seahawks get their first round pick next year

[Vikings4ever 550]

I like Unger. I would have no problem with that pick at that spot.

phillybear must be jacking off right now.

[Walter34 3]

What was the trade? Maybe they traded the Bears 1st round pick instead of their own?

I'm confused:

Update: The Broncos have two first-round picks, theirs and the one belonging to Chicago. Seattle acquired the first-round pick that belongs to Denver.

 

or

 

http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_12228231

 

McDaniels dealt the 2010 first-round pick obtained from Chicago in the Jay Cutler deal to nab Alphonso Smith, an all-American cornerback from Wake Forest, at No. 37.

[phillybear 366]

I think I broke my wrist. I typed this with my nose.

 

We are having a near perfect draft as far as I'm concerned. I am very uncomfortable with that.

[phillybear 366]

I am still confused by the trade details. We got a 1st for a 2nd. That's all I know.

[Walter34 3]

pretty sure its the Bears 1st round pick. The Broncos look like theirs would be top 10, so Denver was better to keep their own.

McDaniels dealt the Broncos' 2010 first-round pick to nab Alphonso Smith, an all-American cornerback from Wake Forest, at No. 37. The Broncos still have a first-rounder obtained from Chicago in the Jay Cutler deal.

 

Looks like it was Denver's 1st rounder and not the 1st rounder obtained from CHI.

[Kopy 570]

Been out for awhile.

 

The deal was our second for Denver's first next year.

 

Then our third and fourth this year, for Chicago's second this year.

 

When you break it down, it's like us giving our third and fourth this year for Denver's first next year, because we were still able to draft Unger.

 

I feel like we stole that pick.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

Wow! I would have been happy just taking Unger at 2.4! So we come out of the 2nd with Unger AND whats more then likely a top 10 pick next year!!!! ANNNNND we took the best player in the draft in the first!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

 

On the flipside, Denver trades their high pick next year to move up and take a guy that's not even 5'10".......between that and the Cutler fiasco I don't see the McDaniels era going very well. Elway/TD seems like it was 25 years ago.

[FlaHawker 24]

Just heard on NFL network the Hawks removed the franchise tag from Leroy Hill making him a free agent.

[WhiteWonder 2,738]

I'm glad Seattle didn't bite on that package.

 

Seattle was most definately not offered that package from the Jets. It is a package of old Mangini players. The Jets may have offered the Seahwaks something or they may have only been in talks with the Browns incase Sanchez slipped past Seattle which is my guess.

 

The Jets basically baited Mangini with some players he likes and gave up a 2nd and some bench guys for Sanchez.

 

 

also Seattle had a very good first day.. very good... congrats

At risk of a homer bashing I might get. I'll tell you that I won't lose any sleep over this move, and in fact I applaud it.

 

6 years 36 million wasn't good enough for him.

Neither was signing a franchise tag. He was the only guy who didn't even show up to camp a couple weeks ago.

 

The need to keep him was there; until a better player fell into our lap yesterday.

The money freed up is huge, and I have no problem with DD Lewis starting for us. Don't forget, he was the one who started at LB during our super bowl run, and with 2 studs next to him, he'll be fine. We could even still bring in another veteran or even resign hill if his market is dry (however I think the bad blood is there now).

 

Another great move IMO.

 

Can't wait for day 2.

Kopy, I agree. How about bringing in Derrick Brooks for one year to help mentor Curry?
