Seahawks WR's

[#ONE]

I hear people say that WR is one of our bigger needs. We do lack a Top-5/Elite type receiver, but I think our group faired pretty well last year. This article breaks down theefficiency of our WR's:

I do think the position could use some depth. A guy like Markus Wheaton could be good in the slot - especially if Baldwins nagging injuries return.

Sando and his stat compiling super computer..

While WR may not be 'Need' we definetly have some depth issues. Depth and talent drop off dramatically after Baldwin. Obo will be gone probably accornding M. Sando. So given all that, why not bring in a top prospect to challenge the outside spots as well. Sidney is making an awefull lot of money, and if he gets hurt....

Wheaton looked very good in combine, very good body type, speed, and hands. He might have assended out of the 3rd round.

I'd like to see us get a weapon like him, Hopkins, woods, hunter, in the 1st or 2nd round.

I think Wheaton pushed out 20 reps at the bench. Not bad for a dude that's 5'11" 190lbs.

The guy produced at Oregon State. He's got speed, really good route runner and catches almost everything thrown his way. I can't really speak to the other receiver. Didn't watch them play. All I know about them is the hype I've read on ESPN/NFL.com and the highlights I've seen on YouTube...

I got a man crush on De'Andre Hopkins in the Chick-Fil-A bowl, where he single handedly took over the game to help Clemson beat LSU. 25-24

Keenan Allen and Justin Hunter are my top two. Patterson will be gone.

I think these could be availabe to us at 25.

I like Hopkins of the 3. Tavon might be the next D. Jackson...

Tavon Austin WR 3 5 West Virginia Sr 5-9 175 1
*DeAndre Hopkins WR 3 3 Clemson Jr 6-1 200
1-2
*Robert Woods WR 5 4 Southern California Jr 6-1 190 1-2

I'm not a fan of Woods.

Well this thread is now closed... or is it?

 

[bobflipaburger]

Definitely not spending a 2nd rounder on a WR. So most of the guys we mentioned aren't going to be around.

 

[twelvewins]

We still have 8 picks, so moving up isn't out of the question. We also have a certain Matt Flynn... no trade value?

Yep this thread is moot now, put a fork in it, we got PERCY!!
