NFL Draft Okung and Curry - Page 3

I'm suprised no body said anything about the two greatest players ever that the Seahawks drafted. They were pretty much invisible Sunday. Thank God we didn't draft either one of them.

If offered the choice between Curry or Jackson, everyone would have taken Curry, but that's basically picking herpes over AIDS.

A bunch of teams screwed the pooch at the top of that draft.

2,3,6,7, and 11 are all looking like busts.

I love it.

Get those babies healthy so we can get you back full-time Hamas.

Curry was a physical freak that backed up his draft status with the awards and the combine numbers. Tyson Jackson was a 4-3 defensive tackle that was projected to be a decent five tech in a draft with no five tech just as half the NFL was switching to the 3-4.

It was like picking a fresh, virginal Megan Fox over chlamydia.

I would have been very happy with Oher, Mack, Curry, Monroe or Sanchez that year. Hell, even Branden Albert stated that he'd have been happy to move over to guard if they drafted Monroe.

This year, maybe next year, Eric Berry is going to be the best defensive player in the entire NFL. Okung will be on the bench nursing another injury.

Genious.

Aaron Curry was a creation of media hype. Sean Weatherspoon had a more productive college career in a tougher conference and had a combine that was equally as good, and, arguably, better.

Curry had a better 40 time. Their broad jumps were essentially identical. Weatherspoon had much better vertical and put up 9 more reps despite weighing less.

if 40 times and combine drills equated into NFL success than the raiders would win the superbowl every year. Eric Berry is a fine physical specimen but he is also a very smart football player and has instincts. He will be the best safety in the entire NFL soon.

hilarious bullshit....but you're the guy going down in history...not only you did you not want Berry, you threw a fit that we drafted him...the guy (Berry) who is months away being the best safety in the NFL...

Berry has been a superstar every day of his life...and it's been screamingly obvious to anyone who watched him. Curry is a jag olb....dime a dozen.

The question isn't Berry or Curry, it's Berry or Okung (and Berry wins that one hands down, Sacoshit has always been out to lunch there).

But I still don't see any validity to Hamas's position that Curry wouldn't have been a good fit for this defense as a TED linebacker. That player isn't asked to be an edge rusher; he's asked to be a very athletic, versatile linebacker that presents the threat of a rush but is also excellent in sealing the edge or in space. Curry can do both of those things quite well and has the athleticism to be a decent situational speed rusher as well (just not a primary guy).

Raji would've been the perfect pick there, but I still don't see any doubt that Curry would've been a much better pick than Jackson was. He'd be a very strong player in this system, IMO.

roadkill would have been a better pick than jackson....a fat teenager would have been a better pick

They could tell he was demoted by the look in his eyes.

Sorry Chiefs fans, Seahawks are doing their absolute best to be the worst. They're going to start benching all of their best players, starting with Curry. Zach Miller, you're next.

C'mon Hamas, you are better than that. Curry played in obscurity at Wake, but still managed to pull out the Butkus along with posting superb combine stats for a man his size. You don't give the Butkus to a guy from Wake because he was a product of media hype. Guys from Wake don't get media hype. Especially guys playing the SAM backer position. The guy was skilled and athletically gifted. He'd be a natural in the 3-4 at the LOLB position, especially with good coaching like Crennel.

If you don't think we'd be better off with Curry playing the SAM versus Jackson on the bench, you are nuts.

Weatherspoon was a hype machine all on his own.

Curry had a better 40 time. Their broad jumps were essentially identical. Weatherspoon had much better vertical and put up 9 more reps despite weighing less.

how's that "Curry is teh awesome!" thing working out?

about as well as "Albert sucks!"?
