That is why we so often doubt his picks, we read about players and their projections for so long (I started the 4th week of the season) that when Ruskell does not grab the guy we do not see most often projected at that pick, then we think he reached and made a bad choice. <BR/><BR/>Lets look at a hypothetical JaMarcus Russell thought. He was doubted by a ton of people about if he had enough desire, and if he was smart enough. With him it was easy to see, but lets say it was harder to see. Lets say only 10% of the GMs saw that in him, with Ruskell being one of them. Then when he passes up on the guy who can throw it through the goal post from 50 yards on his knees, led his team to a national title, and is huge and can run the ball when needed, then the media would be blasting him, and the fan base would follow until the guy flopped.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5053006193215777292.post-22510671290697658382009-03-19T09:00:00.000-07:002009-03-19T09:00:00.000-07:00If we knew the time table on jones then this pick ...If we knew the time table on jones then this pick could be easy, the seahawks know, and their not telling. This pick could be very trade-able if cury, stafford or monore are on the clock. seattle could cash in, they will not show their hands, and will trade down for the right price, the seattle GM has put this team in a great space for Nicks, orr, or a running back? the best player who fits non-urgent needs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
