Great analysis. I'd be alright with the Seahawks taking a flier on a QB they believe overlooked in a later round. A day three pick. Even that's a strategy I'd find questionable given the many holes we have to fill. I'm with you in thinking this isn't the year to take a QB. Next year could be another story. At some point we'll have to get someone with talent under center. Without wasting precious draft capital or salary cap space.

I've often felt that Pete Carroll wasn't the ideal coach for Russell Wilson. He may be an excellent coach for where we are now. If he can prove himself to be strategic and patient. Which would mean he plans on coaching for a while longer. More than just another year or three.

Crazy that right now on April 5th is the first time I've faced the reality that we are probably going to really stink this season. I'm still convinced Pete and John thought they had a shot at Watson. Pete's "2nd chances" presser felt like bracing us all for it. Then the Browns made him an offer he couldn't refuse and now we're left with a team with little depth and below average starters and no superstar qb to save us. I'd have picked another team to pull for if Watson was acquired, but I do truly believe that was the plan when they traded Russ.

NO-BS...IF Drew Lock can get his footwork under control (which IS also what Willis Must do to be a decent QB), he is likely to be a decent QB himself. The dude is quite athletic, with a strong arm who does not maintain his base consistently. Why draft the exact same issue in another QB? If Willis could be had Late in the 3rd, he STILL is not worth drafting because a foundational player can be had in This draft!
