    Pro Football Focus: "On only 391 snaps last season, Onwuzurike was a havoc creator. He had the highest pass-rushing win rate of any returning defensive tackle in the country and a 90.0-plus run-defense grade to boot."

    Is he really THAT good? Damn. I mean he is good, but never stood out the way Gaines or Vea did. Yet.

    You're comparing Baldwin's third contract with the 2nd contracts of Richardson and Tate. Baldwin's second contract was 2 years for only $13 million. Tate and Richardson will both make more over the course of their NFL careers than Baldwin did. Both were 2nd round picks and had bigger second contracts.

    I don't understand how people can be so stupid to be like "Doug Baldwin was a pro bowler, I'd take that all day". Jesus fucking Christ. Fuller isn't in the NFL you retards. The comparison is simply comparing them as players (same height and size, same game speed, same playing style, same position, same role as a #1 WR on their team when they don't have #1 WR talent). Is it that difficult to understand? Fuck some of you are dumb.

    Prefacing this by saying I don't care about the Seahawks and couldn't care less about Doug Baldwin. That said:

    https://www.fieldgulls.com/2012/2/22/2816749/nfl-combine-seattle-seahawks-past-results

    And Marshawn Lynch ran a 4.4 40 too and never showed that kind of game speed as a Seahawk. A one shot everything you got 40 yard dash when a guy is 21 years old is different than their game speed during their NFL career. Some play faster than their 40 time. Some play slower. Guys like Marshawn and Baldwin played slower but were productive in their own unique ways. Marshawn compensated for his lack of game speed with his vision, quickness, and ability to break tackles. Baldwin overcame his lack of game speed with his crafty releases, quickness in and out of brakes, and veteran savvy.

    I went to your 2018 gifskins thread to find this angle but didn't see Colorado.

    Sooooooooo I gave up my search because I didn't feel like trying anymore.

    That Colorado OL reminds me of Nick Wood getting blown up by Stephen Paea on the third snap at Oregon State in 2009 and Locker running for his life.

    Quite honestly this has driven me nuts since he’s been here.

    Quite honestly, I don't disagree.

    This just drives me nuts about announcers in general. You have ONE job, and you fuck it up? It's worse in basketball, where there are only 13 players on each team. Take five fucking minutes, talk to one of each team's coaches, ball boys, statisticians, etc. and make a pronunciation guide. Study it for ten minutes until you have everything right. Do your job and be professional.

    Heard Rondeau on the Honks last year, and he described something like this as his process when asked about the increasingly (what?) difficult names. A pro is a pro, but step one is simply giving a shit.

    That's Tate's third contract.

    And Baldwin's second contract was signed as a restricted free agent which severely limits your leverage. Tate's and Richardson's were as unrestricted free agents.

    HTH but I know it won't.

    He also said he expects Pete to split the reps against Eastern. Fuck us if that happens.
    Yeah, I don’t think we* can afford to fuck around in that game. EWU is no Rutgers.

    All that being said, splitting QB reps would be significant departure for Pete. RIP #MyKJ
