    Hawks get Rasheem Green with second pick (third round). Much better selection.

    It's not that Penny is a bad RB, he's actually my top back after Barkley in the draft. He's damn good, for a RB.

    It's that drafting a RB in the first round just demonstrates they still have no clue how they dug this hole and no clue how to get out of it. RB isn't completely worthless but it's easily the least valuable position, especially if the RB in question doesn't excel as a receiver.

    They got better with Penny but only marginally so. Much bigger impact could have been made at damn near every other non QB position.

    Disagree. Look at the impact Gurley and Fournette had for their teams. I think it depends on what you are trying to do offensively. Pete wants to run the ball.


    I'd still rather have Landry though.
    Barry Sanders couldn’t run behind that line.

    Pettis’ Skills wont transfer to the NFL. You heard it here first. Not strong enough and not a good enough route runner. He did most of his damage against PAC 12 special Olympic secondaries on post routes. He had a ton of room to operate due to the Safeties having to respect Gaskin and Coleman. He won’t have any of those luxuries in SF.

    He had 1 catch in the Fiesta Bowl.

    You do realize he was playing on a bad wheel in the bowl game and had a retard throwing to him, right?

    The draft is the fucking worst. Not because of the actual draft itself, but all the stupid fucking armchair retards who go cut from the 8th grade team come out in full force. "His lateral movement makes him a 5 tech but his burst and inside swim can make him a 3 tech or slide him outside and then he becomes tech 9"

    God shut the fuck up. One Hugh Millen is bad enough we don't need everyone who doesn't have a clue about football turning into one.

    I chuckled into my coffee when reading this. You are added to my "white people to not have killed when I become dictator" list.

    feel free to watch some highlight tapes and you'll see that the reason he has room to operate is because he can draw the defender the wrong direction and off balance with his route running and then he's open.

    #OurDissly! Welcome to 12 Nation!!1!

    I take back everything negative I said yesterday. Seahawks are the best franchise on the planet.

    The Dissly pick is great for them. Love the pick. If they take Shaq Griffin I will be so happy.

    You don't make a pick based on a stupid feel-good story. Shaquem Griffin sucks. Drafting him is like handing a scholarship to Myles Bryant. Who would do something like that?

    Griffin ran a 4.38 with 20 reps at 6'0, 227. Plus he dominated at UCF. Huh?

    I’m in between. Pettis is kind of soft, but he is going to a well coached offense with a good (maybe great) QB.

    He was a 6' 225 lbs edge rusher. He either has to learn a completely new position or just be a special teams guy. Also, I don't know if you've heard this, but he's missing a hand. Not quite as important, but still not a huge plus.

    Learning a new position isn’t so tough when you run a 4.38.

    He’s a football player. The Hawks have a million 5th round picks. If he makes it to them they should take him.
