Yeah, that's my point. PCJS are the ones actually digging into his character, there are other reference points, like talking to him

If PCJS take him I will fully admit and eat my crow, and get on board with the pick. They will obviously know something we didn't.Donn Beach wrote: ↑Tue Apr 25, 2023 7:03 pmYeah, that's my point.

Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
If you can trade down and get the other team's 1st round pick, another 2 round pick for this year, and a first or second round pick for next year, I'm for it.

Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
It's bullshit, and exactly the shit we'll be bitching about in two or three years if a guy a few spots below us becomes and All Pro and we have a QB that is still developing.
Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
I will eat crow if he has a good season. I read somewhere that PCJS have mad a bad pick or two the past decade. My memory goes back further than 12 months.Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Tue Apr 25, 2023 7:06 pmIf PCJS take him I will fully admit and eat my crow, and get on board with the pick.

Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
it's a rare thing when i agree with somebody 100%, but what Richard Sherman says about the draft is everything I believe. You all can hang your hats on the Kiper-wannabes out there, I'll take Stanford grad, All-Pro, and all-time Seahawk as my soapbox mate.
** I only watched the first half of it about the Seahawks, then they switched to 49ers so anything after that doesn't count.

He's a defensive minded player. Of course that's all he's going to focus on.SeattleAddict wrote: ↑Tue Apr 25, 2023 10:33 pmit's a rare thing when i agree with somebody 100%, but what Richard Sherman says about the draft is everything I believe.

Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
Former WR, so it's not like he's unfamiliar with the offensive needs (one of the bigger ones being WR). He focused on it because defense is where pick #5 can have the greatest impact on this team. You want to take a QB that maybe has a 1/5 shot at making the team better five years from now, but the rational thing is to try to make the 2023 team better.Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Tue Apr 25, 2023 11:38 pm

Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
I want the BEST player on the board period! That's Will Anderson or any of the Top 4 QB's after that! Richardson's tests at the combine were legendary! He blew every QB record out of the water. The ceiling is so high on him that a guy like this only comes around once in a blue moon.SeattleAddict wrote: ↑Wed Apr 26, 2023 12:18 amFormer WR, so it's not like he's unfamiliar with the offensive needs (one of the bigger ones being WR).

Carter could be that guy, but I'm just too nervous about all the circus stuff going on around him.

Re: Jalen Carter is not that good.
I think he makes a point, we suddenly have all these fantastic qbs to be drafted. And everybody keeps talking about finding the next Mahomes but Mahomes went 10th or whatever. Who knows who the next Mahomes is
