with Robinson going so high, I wonder if that opens it up for us to take a RB 20 or 37... Gibbs maybe? I think 20 is way too high, but kinda expecting a trade back anyway.
This RB class is so deep, I'd wait! Walker gonna get 70% of the sanps anyways. We need DE, DT, C, S, LB, WR, TE, first

Great pick. Trash city picks a trash human. Perfect.

I love the Witherspoon selection. Hopefully they grab Will McDonald at 20.
Would much rather have Calijah Kancey.
Bigger
Stronger
Faster
Meaner
More Aaron Donalder

Probably smarter, too, and his Mama loves him more :P :P :P
Kancey is faster, but he's not bigger or stronger than anybody. He's the smallest DT in the draft (which is why he is so fast). Good player, I just don't see how he fits, since we need big bodies in the middle.
Sexy has loved Will from the beginning of our draft talks. I like Calijah. He knows it's also sarcasm. However, some of what I stated is true, especially about the love from Mama.

I just saw the pick and I was like "WHO?!?". came here to see all the WTFs and it's encouraging to see the opposite.

So almost certainly a DL at 20 then?
no. I don't think there's a DL that fits that will be there at 20 that won't also be there at 37. Not that it's ever stopped the Seahawks before, but it could be anything. There's a couple nice edge rushers that should go around there, at least one of the top WR, maybe JMS or a LB, too. Lots of possibilities, and they might even trade up.

As for Witherspoon, did you see the highlights they just showed? He is a hell of a player with a chip on his shoulder. Not the biggest positional need, but adding him will probably give us the best defensive backfield in football, and I don't think there will be any other contenders (if Adams is healthy, anyway).
A lot of times it's good to ignore "need" and grab the best player available. The Portland Trail Blazers can tell you how that goes. :D

RB at 20? you must be drinking more than me!
I'm not PREDICTING it, just asked a question. Right now we only have two RBs, and one of those is named Deejay, so it's a need. Just a matter of WHEN, and if there's a guy that they like, they might take him. With RB1 going 8, that means RB2 could be taken before they'd like. Just sayin'

I LOVE our pick. Only reason I went with Gonzales over him is because of their love of height with Sherm and Woolen but this kid Witherspoon was born to play football.

I like both of them as players. I just think we have enough 280-290 lb guys and really need a big bodied run stuffer.

I squeaked him in at 20. Thank God. I would not be excited if I was a Titans fan.
