Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Three first rounders on this team?

I think so.

Byron Murphy: #1 or #2 best CB in this draft. Projected as high as top-10.
Taylor Rapp: #1 safety in this draft IMO, don't see the Seahawks passing on him if he's still available in the late first. Tedric Thompson and Delano Hill suck.
Kaleb McGary: Two time 1st-team All-Pac-12. Elite durability/toughness. 4-year starter, never missed a game. Athletic freak who's gonna blow up at the combine. Another possible Seahawk that would allow them to finally dump stank ass Ifedi.

2019 draft could be flashy for UW and big for the 2020 recruiting class.

    Ifedi has had a nice year. But Fant played RT better than Ifedi’s played all year.

    Every year. Before the season there's no Huskies in the first round. After the season there's usually more than 1. That should be Petersen's biggest selling point right there.

    Yeah I don't think Rapp is going in the first round. Not very many teams need a safety that badly and those who do are probably going for one of the 6'3 guys. Rapp is really good but he isn't what the NFL wants and has dropped under the radar this year. Actually is giving me a small hope he could come back next year.

    Murphy yes.

    McGary maybe. There are a 3-4 guys ahead of him unless they Continent the combine. I think someone takes him if he really combines like we expect.

    Rapp had elite short area quickness. If he can run a 4.4/4.5 he’ll be a late R1 early 2 guy

    That's great but there are several 6'3 guys that run a 4.5 and are also 6'3. The only teams that would draft a safety in the first round need a big guy to contest downfield throws to big receivers and short area quickness doesn't make up for a 3" height distance there.

    Rapp will be more of box safety in the league. He’s like 6”1. He’ll be fine.

    Rapp has elite round 1 talent with mid round physical attributes. Will be a steal in the mid second.

    nfl is filled idiot GMs, as soon as they see Kaleb's numbers. They will draft him high, and will try to play him at left tackle given his athleticism
