I guess Prisco is considered an expert?

Our old buddy Pete did a Post Draft power ranking. Not much to see here. Just Hawks then Rams then Bills then Broncos.
Landing running back Jadarian Price in the first round will prove to be a big part of their offense. Kenneth Walker III will not be missed.
Should someone remind Pete that Price is only a good pick if we also added a late fifth rounder that wouldn't even make the team?

remember when he blatantly hated the seahawks during the LOB years? Now, suddenly, he's a fan. I still think he'a s douche, but I agree with the above assessment, we won't miss walker, but you don't need to be an 'expert' to telegraph that. Dude only really turned it on the last three games of his last season on the team (which was huge, but still...). To be fair to the "why-didn't-we-trade-backers": by not trading back, we definitely whiffed on the next Tom Brady - guaranteed. Let the lamentations begin....NOW.

Prisco hated on us when Holmgren was here too. The biggest hater back then though was Sean Salisbury. And it was obvious why. I believe one or two years prior to the Hawks making the Super Bowl, he picked them to make the Super Bowl. Since they didn't play up to some level that only he put them on? He ripped on them every week. He also loved the Chargers the year the Hawks did make the Super Bowl. The Chargers didn't even make the playoffs. It was rather pathetic listening to him week after week.
As for Walker, I always liked him. But no way we could pay him. I also was a little irritated that all of a sudden in a contract year? He wanted to be on the field all the time. He never seemed to have any issues splitting carries before, or missing time because he was banged up.

They also forget to tell him he was just a back up running back.

I am predicting 1157 yards for Price. 15 carries a game x 17 games = 255 1,157/255 = 4.5 ypc

It was during the COVID nonsense that I determined that there are no experts. There are people who possess more knowledge, but they aren't experts.
Prisco, Bayless and any other number of talking heads are simply offering opinions. They may (or may not) have done their homework, but they're not experts.

Speaking of experts, here's Ben Solak preseason last season on the Oakland raiders
“It required an unspeakable amount of personal control to not put the Raiders in the top five. There are few head coaches I have more faith in than Carroll, who consistently does the following: gets great performance out of rookies; prepares backups well (and accordingly coaches around injury); and adjusts his defensive scheming to the players available, protecting them from their faults. There are few better culture coaches in football, but his scheming — much lauded in the early 2010s — has become underappreciated.
“I also have a huge amount of faith in Kelly. An offensive coordinator role suits him better than the head coaching jobs (Eagles and 49ers) that overwhelmed him in the mid-2010s, as he won’t have control over personnel. Indeed, his offense over the past few years (in college at UCLA and Ohio State) has become far more oriented to heavier personnel and a diverse running game — the sort of stuff that’s cooking in the league right now
