Let me just say that I hate Melvin Ingram as a DE. I think his short arms would kill him and he has little future as a full time guy there. I've been adamant about not liking him.
However...I'm really starting to like the idea of him at SLB. I was just thinking about it. It's the type of bold, unique personnel fit that Pete loves. Ingrams 3cone and other agility drills were tops even among LBs and I think he brings everything we want in our SLB. He'd be a great 5th rusher and he brings the versatility to play on the line on passing downs.
Thoughts? I know it's a different approach, but I just don't see us taking Kuechly. I think they'd rather move KJ inside.

damn you SoS, i was just thinking of a way to pitch this to you guys. I've been slowly becoming more and more of an ingram fan over the last month (especially because i root for guys that everyone tends to doubt). I'd love to bring him in as a pure rushing linebacker, in a Tamba Hali like role for the defense. I'm not gonna sell him short because his arms aren long enough, his kids a gamer. And i was really impressed with him in his interview, your hear can hear success and passion in his voice.....i have the same feeling about him that i do with robert griffin. I'd love to bring him in
I'm trade down, Perry, Ingram, Kuechly or bust at this point. And that won't change in the next 2 1/2 weeks. I'm likely always going to root for this guy wherever he goes. I think he's going to be an 80-100+ career sack guy when it's all said and done

Most likely getting the day of the draft off! I'll only watch day one live but that's what DVR is for on Friday.

Yeah, I am really hoping that I dont have baseball when the seahawks pick. Last year I had to go drive to Seattle (about a 5 hour drive for me) and missed the entire draft when I was in Seattle. That was very unfortunate...

I'd honestly consider Ingram at ILB if I was a 3-4 team. I don't hate him, I think he'll need to drop 10-15 lbs. in the NFL

I don't know about inside. He has ideal bend and athleticism for the outside.

What's the list of players we visited with last year? Would be nice to see the relevance of this list.

I only found 1, it was Davon House. Obviously we didn't take him. Obviously small sample size. Take it for what its worth.

I wonder how much of it is just a good grace for the local fans. Couple UW and then a WSU and EWU player.

I'd have to assume it's mostly due to how easy it is to visit with players in our own backyard.

I hope to God, we aren't considering Brockers or Donnie Fletcher. Fletcher had a bad year and got absolutely toasted, multiple times at the Senior Bowl. He looked completely lost. Brockers is the most overrated player in the entire draft, as well. I know teams usually bring in a bunch of guys that they might target in the late rounds or as undrafted free agents and to be honest, there are a lot of guys on that list I know absolutely nothing about. Of the guys I do know, I'd love to get Ron Brooks. |
