    I think they should draft some developmental OL, but with a competent OL coach they do have enough talent to become decent. The last time they tried a power blocking scheme (when Lynch went out) they (and Wilson) dominated.

    This is the best Seahawks draft in years. Even the 1st round pick. The fact that Mel Kiper hates it already tells me it was a terrific pick.

    I actually agree with this, but they've also drafted awfully for several years in a row so it doesn't really say much. This is a decent draft though. I don't really hate any of the picks so far. Maybe Tre Flowers.

    And as I say I don't really hate any of the picks they select one of my least favorite offensive linemen in the entire class.

    He's a terrible athlete with good tape. Kind of the reverse of most Seahawk picks. I'm semi intrigued since we've failed so miserably with great athletes who actually can't play on the line.

    The fact that he makes Jesse Sosebee look like a coked up cheetah in a lambo is one thing, but I don't like his tape at all, personally.

    Also, what you're saying is basically what a lot of Hawks fan said last year when they drafted Justin Senior. Very similar player, except at least he wasn't undersized. Already out of the league.

    I don't remember anyone saying Senior had good tape.

    I meant the whole "he's not athletic so at least they're doing something different" thing.
