bubba9497 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/chatESPN?event_id=25952 Click link for entire article Chat with Mel Kiper Cole (KC): Is Seattle seriously considering Sanchez? How high do you think Josh Freeman will go? Love your work. Thanks. SportsNation Mel Kiper: I think they have to be. I thought he's up there as one of the top players in this draft. Durability has been an issue for Matt Hasselbeck. Maybe in 2010 you let Sanchez compete. Seattle got pretty good play from Seneca Wallace when he filled in last year. Hasselbeck has the back situation and he had the worst year he's had in Seattle. And he turns 34. Wallce proved he could do a decent job and then you'd have Sanchez as the heir apparent. J., J-Ville.: With so many teams looking to trade out of the top ten, who is most likely to be successful? SportsNation Mel Kiper: I think Jacksonville at 8 would be the most successful. If Sanchez gets past Seattle, then I think he's the guy that people would move up to try and get. San Francisco, Washington are other teams that could look to do that. Reno (DC): Better fit for the Skins, Sanchez or Campbell? SportsNation Mel Kiper: Campbell is in his last year to show that he can do it. He's going to have to have some things fall into place. Kelly or Thomas is going to have to have an impact this year. Fred Davis at TE. The OL has to play a lot better. This is a put up or shut up for Campbell. This entire organization and coachign staff, they know they have to win. I would take Sanchez if he's there, but I don't think he will be. And they don't have the ammunition to get him. They'd have to move 13 to 4 or 13 to 3. SportsNation Mel Kiper: I don't buy into the Josh Freeman talk. Freeman with the 13th pick. He's not highly regarded enough to guarantee that he's the heir apparent there. What Campbell needs to do is be more assertive and a vocal leader.

FrFan Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I do agree with him, we don't have enough ammos to get Sanchez, and I hope the FO won't mortgage our draft picks to move up to get him. I would rather try to get Orakpo, because he could (if not a bust) be great with Albert Haynesworth, and unfortunately I don't think we can find a team to trade down.

That Redskins Fan Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I hope and pray this comes true I am going to be pissed if the skins trade up to three cause sanchez is going to the hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd421 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think that knowing the relationship that Vinny has with Shanahan (as made clear by us going all out to get Cutler) if Shanahan likes Sanchez we will make it happen. Danny would love to have ole Mike hear as the coach next year so why not start puting his pieces together now?I am not saying this is what is happening I am just saying that I would not be at all superised by these Shanahanagins...

StepyagameuP Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 There are always surprises in the draft. People falling more than they should, people going higher then they should. IMO, we will land somebody that is agreed upon with the general fan base and hopefully us "Advanced Fans" at ES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMarcus1914 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 this is a complete indictment on the front office in my opinion. When we drafted JC he had a history of playing under differnet coordinators, and winning a chip. Sanchez only has one year as a starter. This front office always is doing something stupid. I hate the fact the fans have to suffer. Tired of Danny and his nonesense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLEED-B&G Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I like Don Banks most recent mock, not necessarily the pick but paints a picture where we will either address OT or DE. I'd be happy either way. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/don_banks/04/17/mock2/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorPickSix Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I'm not sold on Sanchez. I'd honestly rather stick this year out with Jason, and if he sucks, do everything possible next year to get Bradford or McCoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskool Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Seattle's two biggest needs are OT to spot and eventually take over for Walter Jones and WR, as they have no one outside Housh on that team. If they go QB here, it's because Mora Jr. forced them to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamboater Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think we are going to go OT or DE/LB I just dont see Sanchez happening and I think its for the better right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnyderMustGo Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Worst case scenario: our moronic FO settles on taking a QB at #13, Sanchez is gone, and then we decide to take Freeman. He is horrible and a virtual clone of JC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightbird Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Kansas City probably thinks they can have our #13 and next year's 1st and 3rd for their #3 overall. And they're probably right. I hate the constant rumors of our stupidity. It's the main reason I want the draft to be over and the season to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Redskins Fan Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 GETTING ugly? In my observations on here and this is just mine i am seeing a clear division of those feed up with snyder , feed up with campbell or more than in general just feed up drafting a player that i believe 50 or sixty percent (could be wrong on percentage) are not behind and this site can be ruthless at times... i forecast a nasty mix if sanchez is the selection imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, I still can't see the Hawks taking Sanchez though. Too many other holes and it goes against their GM's draft history.. Something interesting I found: http://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.com/seahawks/2009/02/11/the_comprehensi.html The comprehensive Tim Ruskell draft history Posted by Danny O'Neil Tim Ruskell's teams tend to go for defensive linemen in the first round and those defensive linemen tend to be from the South. Go back to 1992 when Ruskell was promoted to director of college scouting in Tampa Bay. Ruskell's employers have used 15 different first-round choices since then, and here's how those numbers break down: 9 of those first-round choices were used on defensive players. 6 of those first-round choices were used on defensive linemen 6 of those first-round choices came out of Florida colleges 3 of those first-round choices came from west of the Mississippi River. That would be DE Lawrence Jackson (USC), DE Regan Upshaw (Cal) and QB Trent Dilfer (Fresno State). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertim Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Unfortunately it won't end. No matter what. If we don't get Sanchez it will be back to the Cult of Colt saying he should start. As soon as Campbell makes a single mistake or we lose one game people will be yelling for JC to be benched. If we get Sanchez and throw him in the fire and he gets manhandled (which is likely in that scenario) people will just yell that we shouldn't have let JC go or that the Sanchez draft was dumb or Colt should start. It just goes on and on and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepRyder Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 If we waste picks to trade up it better be for Orakpo only. Thats the only person Id trade up for. Maybe Curry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
