Thread: McShay: Seahawks Will Take Sanchez at #4

I would love Sanchez to go to Seattle cuz it means we aren't taking a QB. I didn't think we were anyways, but it'd be nice to put it to rest early on. Buffalo going OT would presumably free up another pass rusher.

Det-QB
Stl-OT
KC-LB/OT
Sea-QB
Clev-WR
Cincy-OT/???
Oak-WR
Jax-OT
GB-DT/DE/???
SF-Pass rusher
Buf-OT

In my estimation, the only pass rusher to go would be Orakpo...MAYBE a second one to GB. Buff would get the 4th best OT Smith, Monroe, Smith, Oher or even Pettigrew. Wonder if they'd give up the #28 for Scheff and a 3rd.

If so, then Josh Freeman should be happy as a puppy with two peters.

Someone.. **cough Jets** .. are prolly more likely to move up **cough Bucs** to get Freeman.

I like Sanchez but can't stand Freeman for this offense....he just seems like the complete wrong QB for this scheme of McD.

I definitly think the Buffalo situation is interesting. I don't think that the Broncos could get #28 from them for Scheff but they could be a likely trade partner. So at #11 you have OL, DE, and Pettigrew options for Buffalo. I agree that it could free up another pass rusher, it comes down to does Buffalo feel Oher is better then say Beatty or Britton which both could be gone by #28 so oher at #11 would have to be the pick.

I am not totaly sold on Sanchez at #4 it makes sense but so does an OT for the Hawks.

I think San Fran could save us as well from taking Sanchez unless the brass is set on him and trades up, but that's another story, SF could go QB/DE/ or OT, so the y could be one to take a pass rusher off the board but it looks like the Broncos will at least either have Maybin/Brown/Jackson to choose from at #12.

If things pan out the way you're suggesting Raji could easily slip to us with the 12th pick in the draft.

The key teams seem to be Kansas City, Seattle and Green Bay.

Kansas City takes Curry!

Seattle takes Sanchez, unless Jets panic!

Green Bay takes Raji!

KC would be foolish to pass on Curry and he'll probably be there. If he isn't though they could really use Raji. It would let them pair him with Dorsey and run a pretty effective one gap 3-4. IMO

Seattle signed Collin Cole in the off season and with their other holes they might look elsewhere for a rotational DT to go with him. However they seem to be pretty suited to picking BPA so if they think that's Raji he could go here. So if they are looking at Sanchez that's great news for us.

I think that there is no way that Green Bay picks Raji. They've got Pickett that they're high on as NT they've also got three other guys listed at NT on their roster.

Cleveland was also mentioned as a possibility which really depends on what they think is going to happen with disgruntled Rogers. If they think he's staying they pick something else, if they think he's going then they probably get Raji.

I think there's a better than even chance that Raji does slip to us in the first.

I do remember seeing where Cleveland is starting to really warm up to Raji!

Cleveland has 3 gigantic bodies across the DLine and are trading Braylon next week. They will take Crabtree if he's there.

Or Sanchez, mineaswell clone him because he's going everywhere! You gotta love the week before the draft. Draft gurus scattering and hoping their predictions are money!!! I like reading rumors!!

i think you have to add jacksonville and oakland as well. . . . i do think the fade will take a receiver, but you can never predict al davis' moves with any certainty, and it's not like they don't need help on the D-line. . . .

everyone has the jags taking an OT, but they just signed tra thomas in FA-- they can wait if there's a player they like on the board, and they could really use a replacement for marcus stroud. . . .

for that matter, san fran could really use an upgrade at NT as well. . . .

I've been listening to local Clevland Sports radio all week and these fans are all over the place. Some want Wells at #5 to replace Lewis who just had a secret surgery...like he isn't getting old anyways. Why keep it a secret for draft day? Honetsty, who at 1-4 was gonna take Wells to keep him away from Cleveland?

Some want Curry...which I could understand although they have D'Qwell in the middle and some decent OLB youth.

Sanchez name has come up. Why, I don't know. They already have 2 QBs and noone to throw to.

Oddly enough, none of the fans have mentioned wanting a WR. They have 1 who led the league in drops and is about to be traded. Another retired. Another is being retired by the Florida Police and a kick returner who was a solid #3. Crabtree is a NO BRAINER, unless it's Maclin...but watch em make me look like an ass and take an OT.

If this is the case that means Crabtree will probably go to the raiders. Im really against taking a QB early this draft if at all. My biggest reason is because we havent seen what Orton or Simms can even do in this system. Basing anything off of what they did elsewhere is pointless right now. I dont mind taking a Qb later in the draft but even then i think we just dont need one right now. Considering the history with McD and his QB's at NE i just dont see us drafting Sanchez. I think its a smoke screen to get a team like Seattle or Cleveland to bite so that a good defender drops. Like i said in the other thread im ok with taking a guy like Moreno but outside of that i want nothing but defenders.

i like crabtree to cleveland is close to a lock at this point. . . . if they take wells at #5, lerner should fire mangini and kokonis on the spot. . . .

Especially since they will get a #1 from NYG and they could get 1 of McCoy or Donald Brown at either the end of the first or w/ their #2.
