Re: Sam Howell Traded
We didn't really get much, kinda feels like the team simply wanted to get rid of him.
Howell has a chance to become the future QB for Seahawks so this is a win for him. |

Re: Sam Howell Traded
Given that SH was a 5th rounder, this basically feels like we gave him up to swap a 4th for a 3rd and a 6th for a 5th. Doesn’t seem like we got a lot. Is a 5th round pick worth that? SH arguably outplayed his draft slot on a terrible team.

Re: Sam Howell Traded
And that guarantees a QB at 2 now (or 1)

Re: Sam Howell Traded
Basically the equivalent of a mid 4th rounder, would have preferred to keep hold of him, cheap contract and had some upside

Re: Sam Howell Traded
According to the pick value chart this is roughly the equivalent of the 95th pick. Late 3rd.
Good value. 78=200 152=30.6 230.6 total 102=92 179=19.8 111.8 total +118.8 Pick 95=120

Re: Sam Howell Traded
I think we got pretty excellent compensation
Another 3rd round pick? Nice

Re: Sam Howell Traded
If the pick value chart says this is the equivalent of a late 3rd, that's reasonable. If he outplays Geno Smith and becomes a long term starter for them, I might feel differently, but we will have gone from a 5th rounder to a 3rd rounder in exchange, and that is itself better than any trade that the last regime did, no matter what SH accomplishes for Seattle.

Re: Sam Howell Traded
Basically we moved from 102 to 78, with people who know how to draft those picks may make a big difference.
The 5th and 6th rounders are basically lotto tickets anyway. Sent from my SM-G781U using Tapatalk |

Re: Sam Howell Traded
The problem is they didn't have the right pieces in place for him to succeed. You can't throw a rookie QB out there with a shitty OL and expect good things to happen. All it does is just ruin any talent you have. If they do the same thing with the next QB we draft, you'll see the same results.

Re: Sam Howell Traded
He had his knee injured in his rookie season because his OLine couldn't block, by Jon Allen if I recall. Missed a large part of the season. They then started putting major resources into building the OL. Who knows how that will effect the longevity of his career.
