The return of my annual thread.
Did this last four years.
Link to the grades from the 2012 draft. Seattle grade = A
Link to the grades from the 2011 draft. Seattle grade = A
Link to the grades from the 2010 draft. Seattle grade = A
Link to the grades from the 2009 draft. Seattle grade = F
Draft excitement is just around the corner, less than three weeks away. I keep saying it, but I guess it doesn't mean much. The fact that John Schneider hasn't won a GM of the year award is weird. What? Has he been too good? Everyone else is jealous? WTF?
If you wish to participate please include the following:
1. List of drafted players. LINK to DraftHistory.com
2. Players still with team
3. Starters
4. Potential future starters
5. Pro-bowls
6. Positives
7. Negatives
8. Grade
Seattle Seahawks 2013 draft
2.30 Christine Michael RB Texas A&M
3.25 Jordan Hill DT Penn State
4.26 Chris Harper WR Kansas State
5.4 Jesse Williams DT Alabama
5.5 Tharold Simon DB Louisiana State
5.25 Luke Willson TE Rice
6.26 Spencer Ware RB Louisiana State
7.14 Ryan Seymour G Vanderbilt
7.25 Ty Powell DE Harding
7.35 Jared Smith DT New Hampshire
7.36 Michael Bowie T NE Oklahoma State
Players still with team: 4
Starters: 1
Potential future starters: 2
Pro-bowls:
Positives: Jordan Hill looks the part to replace Brandon Mebane in the middle of the defense. Luke Willson (no relation) has become a reliable second TE. Really liked the Ware pick and the folks in KC are probably glad that Seattle has had a stacked roster causing them to let go of talent. Bowie started a few times in replacing an injured Okung and was signed by the Browns in the offseason, but wasn't someone anyone sees as a regular starter.
Negatives: Where to start with Christine Michael? He will go down at this generation's Onterrio Smith (remember the Whizzenator?). How many guys inspire enormous threads like he did in the Shark Pool with nothing to show but untapped potential. Weirder even still Seattle got a pick out of Dallas for him, and now he's back on the roster in Seattle. 4th round pick Harper didn't even make it out of camp. Seattle dumped their first rounder on Minnesota in the Percy Harvin fiasco. Well, to be fair Seattle did win the super bowl in a blow out. Maybe the Harvin deal wasn't that bad? The roster was so stacked that it didn't matter much.
Grade: C- (Thought about the D, but that's just emotions talking. The reality is this group wasn't that bad overall).
