Great survey! I interpreted the "would you trade Walker for a late 1st?" question as more of a "did we get GREAT value?" rather than an actual proposal. Clearly we will want to keep him through his rookie contract.....trading him would be wildly unpopular.

The question I had the most trouble with was "Which 2022 Seahawks draft pick are you the most HAPPY about as of right now?". The players drafted all have a great deal to offer and I'm happy to have them all! Cross was my gut reaction, but only because he appears to be above average at a position of need and importance. Bryant also caught my eye, as it sounds like he is a well-seasoned rookie and should provide a great deal of leadership in the future. I settled on Woolen just for the incredible potential and apparent coachability. I'd pay to watch a live video stream of Seahawk practices where Tariq and DK were matched up :)

If Abe Lucas is not ready to start and play reasonably well I would red shirt him if need be. I am optimistic Abe will win the starting job and play well. If he is noticeably not ready don't throw him in the deep end and maybe ruin his confidence. If you are getting beaten like a rented mule it would be very hard for him to ever succeed mentally. Ego's are fragile and Abe Lucas has made every team he has ever tried out for. It would be a crime to waste a possible ten year starter.

Good question would you trade Walker 3 for a late first rounder. I am as adamant in saying no as I was about not ruining Abe Lucas. I really feel both players will have promising first year. The one question I struggled with for 20 seconds, who will be the best player from our 2020 class. I answered Jordan Brooks but I would love to see Colby Parkinson become that player. Brooks is already a solid NFL player who If he can play well in coverage could easily be a pro Bowler. He had the best mis tackle rate at 10% of any linebacker in the league. I expect him to be great, I feel that Colby Parkinson can become a legitimate threat at tightend. Number one he needs to stay healthy no more broken feet. Number 2 Shane Waldron and Pete Carroll need to play him enough and put him in a position to succeed.
