Can we really beat seattle?

On an emotional level, I want a win. Logically I know we're far better off losing out and drafting #1. The game against Seattle will have one of 2 outcomes:

1.) We're blown out and the game is over by the 3rd quarter.

2.) We manage to keep the game close, and in the 4th quarter Jimmy has a chance to lead us down the field for a win.

Let's say scenario #2 happens. Jimmy has another opportunity to prove he can lead this team. He'll have to throw deep passes and make several big plays down the stretch. How confident are you that Jimmy will make the big plays we need to win? When Jimmy completes a long pass, it almost feels like a miracle. For him to string together several deep passes, and a touchdown pass (assuming we need 7) just seems unlikely to me. Goodson will have to have a MONSTER game, with lots of YAC to try and eke out a win.

Well, given the Panther luck, they will find a win perhaps here and Arizona and miss out on Luck.

Seattle has sucked last couple of weeks with injuries, so Panthers have a shot given the way Goodson is playing (Torry Holt called him a beast) despite the cross country travel.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
