Historically we have one of the smallest in the league. I know gettleman mad a switch but I think we need a larger staff period.

Approx 20 teams at UW Pro Day including: HOU, JAX, OAK, CLE, KC, NYJ, DEN, NO, ATL, WA, PHI, TB, NYG, SD, DAL, PIT, AZ and of course SEA.

Things like this I dont understand and this is just on example. Everyone in our conference is at uw pro day but we aren't? I dont know if its a lack of personnel or what. I know we had guys at like Fresno state's pro day but come on. I don't see us working out alot of guy or at many prodays. What's the deal?

We have no lack of scouting staff. Just look at the staff and compare it to other teams. Where did this misconception come from?

Cos he wants us to be present at every school's pro-day is what I can gather. You know, our name should be listed as one of those teams that attended...

I do wish we had more, but I'd open up pro scouting. Two guys and a director isn't enough - I'd give 4 guys - and three would concentrate, to a point, year round on the division, helping out the other games as well but staying where each had a specialty interdivisionally.  I also wish there was more of a sabermetric presence outside Rodgers/Beane, who were both supposedly involved (which concerns me that it might be only for the finance side). 

 

That said I don't care about whether the team name shows up at stuff like this anymore than I care whether we've worked someone out or talked to them at combine.  They scout everyone.

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
