I just feel that with the way our roster is currently constructed, a mid 1st or 2nd round QB wouldn’t fit our team, especially if they are on the older side.
I was supportive of the possibility of taking a very young QB with great traits like Anthony Richardson last year with pick 5, but if we didn’t draft someone like Henson Hooker last year I don’t think we should this year.
Geno hasn’t been perfect, but is far from the reason our offense has been struggling.
The early rounds would be better spent of the trenches to continue bolstering our team to move towards contention.
This team needs OL pretty bad. The good news is you can find OGs in later rounds and we already drafted both OTs recently. Haynes has the 4th most sacks allowed & 6th most penalties. Brown’s 5th in penalties and 5th in sacks.
I do agree on the Geno hasn’t been good this year criticisms, but the OL has been injured and duct-taped together. They can’t help the run game when they get no push, and that’s a big reason why Waldron gives up on run plays. Prob figures it’s better to have incomplete passes than have Walker run into a stacked box with no lanes and get hurt or fumble. OL hasn’t given Geno a ton of time, he’s older and not mobile so that makes it worse. On top of that, Waldron keeps calling these deep moon balls that aren’t working. Teams know the OL is a problem, even hitting the occasional deep ball won’t make them pull back.
The team does need a new QB. I do love Drew but he’s not a franchise QB. Geno’s not either. If Geno’s here another year it should be as a bridge QB like with Tannehill/Levis and Flacco/Lamar. There will be some good QBs coming up, we’re lucky about that. The next 2 years have some good QBs in the draft and it’s pretty clear anyway that Seattle needs to draft one.
The scheme is an issue. DK, Lockett, JSN, Walker & Charbonnett…that’s a good roster. A legitimately good roster. Get better OL depth with better play calling and a younger QB and things will look a lot better.
