    The Quinn Ewers to Seattle connection - too strong to ignore?

    If you're hoping (maybe even praying?) that Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider FINALLY drafts a QB capable of perhaps one day taking over as the franchise signal-caller, this might be your year. While this QB draft class has taken it's lumps from cynics and critics alike, there are a number of prospects littered throughout the group that have starter upside. One of those is Texas' Quinn Ewers. Once a top prospect and widely-viewed as a potential first rounder, the shine wore off Ewers after an injury-filled and inconsistent 2024 campaign. But there are reasons to think Schneider has had his eye on Ewers for a long while, and could potentially choose him when the draft rolls around in late April... and today at the NFL scouting combine, news broke about Ewers that make the potential connection between the GM and the QB prospect even stronger. In this episode, I'll connect those dots for you.

    Blue Chipper or Blue Light Special? Will John Schneider aim high, or go bargain-shopping in free agency?

    With the start of free agency just a few weeks away, there are a number of roster holes that Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider may look to fill in free agency in advance of the NFL draft. Never one to be known to spend freely on outside talent, Schneider said recently he "may have to" in order to fill some of their biggest needs.  In this episode, I'll highlight a few crucial spots that need bolstering, and give you examples of high-end options for each, as well as bargain-basement choices. You tell ME which ones you prefer?  SUBSCRIBE TO THE NEW NFL DRAFT CHANNEL “The Pick Is In!” with myself and Bryce Coutts of the Hawkzone Rundown - launching late January 2025.  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJBnG_xl6LAMK4J3V-zayDA Thank you to our sponsor DUER!! “Built for DOING!” Get 20% off your order with DUER, active denim and lifestyle apparel at www.shopduer.com/FOREVER Sign up for a new account with BetUS and they’ll give you 150% sign-up bonus on your first deposit, and 125% on your 2nd and 3rd deposits if you use promo code YouTube150 Here’s how you can support the Seahawks Forever channel: SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg Buy me a coffee, or a beer! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dviens08w Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Ultimate A.I. Battle - which program produced the best SEAHAWKS mock draft?

    I'm late to the AI game, and frankly have been resistant to the whole idea.... until now. I decided to play around with the two biggest programs - Grok and Chat GPT - to see how well they would do when tasked with creating a 7-round SEAHAWKS mock draft, and the results are.... not bad! Seriously, I've seen HUMAN mock drafts worse than these! So which one had the best draft haul for your Hawks? Tune in to find out, and then YOU vote on which one wins.  SUBSCRIBE TO THE NEW NFL DRAFT CHANNEL “The Pick Is In!” with myself and Bryce Coutts of the Hawkzone Rundown - launching late January 2025.  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJBnG_xl6LAMK4J3V-zayDA Thank you to our sponsor DUER!! “Built for DOING!” Get 20% off your order with DUER, active denim and lifestyle apparel at www.shopduer.com/FOREVER Sign up for a new account with BetUS and they’ll give you 150% sign-up bonus on your first deposit, and 125% on your 2nd and 3rd deposits if you use promo code YouTube150 Here’s how you can support the Seahawks Forever channel: SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube Channel for video versions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKP7ohrtTc8P0a4YIBUTfdg Buy me a coffee, or a beer! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dviens08w Join YouTube Premium!

    John Schneider just said the quiet thing out loud on his weekly radio show (My blind reaction!)

    Seattle Seahawks GM John Schneider has taken a lot of heat for the performance of the Seahawks offensive line the last several years, and he was widely critiqued last year for his assertion that interior linemen are often "over-drafted and overpaid." Today on his weekly draft-season radio show he opened up about what he REALLY meant when he said that, and how important he thinks it is that he improves that unit this offseason is. Are you buying it? Tune in to hear for yourself!

    Mock Draft Monday - "Trench Warfare" - What if the Seahawks drafted ONLY linemen?

    Now that the Super Bowl is behind us it's full speed ahead on the NFL offseason. The scouting combine is just around the corner, with free agency coming up right behind it. But for most teams and their fans, all eyes are focused on the NFL draft the last week of April.  Seeing how the Philadelphia Eagles manhandled the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, it's fair to ask how far the Seattle Seahawks may be in being able to dominate up front the way Philly did. Mike Macdonald himself has been preaching ever since he was hired a year ago that that's precisely the way he wants his teams in Seattle to play.  So for the sake of today's exercise on Mock Draft Monday, let's see how it looks if the Hawks were to draft ONLY linemen.  Join along and let me know what you think!
