Trade Geno for a 3rd rounder. Start Lock. Draft a QB.
So simple. Not sure we would get a 3rd though. I was thinking 4th or 5th.

That all true, and dont get me wrong, trench upgrade is critical, second in importance only to QB.
But because of the severe dropoff at that spot next year, i'd be hugely disappointed to not come away with anything less than one of the second-tier QBs (Nix/Penix/Rattler/McCarthy) to challenge Geno. And wont cost a lot because there are 3 others ahead of those guys, plus a lot of depth at OT, DT and receiver (not a big need but just pushes everyone else down). So if you trade back and nab Penix or Nix somewhere in the 25 - 45 range, should still be able to score a solid Guard, Free Safety (Bullock/Brade/Bishop), LB, and TE, plus maybe a Maason Smith at DT in late 3rd/ early 4th. 3r
Or a primo interior lineman could be had first if you're satisfied with the choice of Rattler in the 3rd.
Why would there be a severe drop off when both MM and Grubb have brought up Lock without being prompted and despite the fact he is no longer a Seahawk....
Sorry to confuse ya, kinda forgot which chat topic i was in, all absorbed in the draft as i am. Severe dropoff in QB talent from the 24 draft to 2025, not too severe a dropoff from Geno to Lock i dont think.
My bad. You were clear..

Probably the strangest "Career" in the history of the franchise!

According to Sports Illustrated, Matthews was a "heartwarming story, a guy who’d gone from hiding in plain sight to the cusp of Super Bowl history to the unemployment line, in less than a calendar year". And interestingly enough, he's a cousin of Reggie White. Yes, that Reggie White.

Would have been SB MVP. btw Malcolm Smith who was MVP in our SB win played through 2021!

I’ll never get over the fact that he scored that TD with basically no time in the clock in the first half, out of a hurry up offense, but when asked why he wasn’t on the field to end the Super Bowl, why in the biggest play of the biggest game they targeted the gunner on the punt team? The coaches said he didn’t know the hurry up offense. :shock:

It's beyond baffling.
