Not sure why Hawks fans are upset... I love what they did... Went from 5 picks to 9 picks... Collier fits the Hawks scheme to a "T"... Love the pick here... He reminds me of Michael Bennett... He can play multiple positions along the DL....
Round 1, Pick 29 (29th overall, acquired from Chiefs): L.J. Collier, defensive end, TCU
Round 2, Pick 5 (37th overall, acquired from Giants)
Round 3, Pick 29 (92nd overall, acquired from Chiefs)
Round 4, Pick 12 (114th overall, acquired from Packers)
Round 4, Pick 18 (118th overall, acquired from Packers)
Round 4, Pick 22 (124th overall)
Round 4, Pick 30 (132nd overall, acquired from Giants)
Round 5, Pick 4 (142nd overall, acquired from Giants)
Round 5, Pick 21 (159th overall)
and we could have had both
it hasnt been working lately, cant skip out on the 1st round forever.
we missed out on some top level talents, all for a bunch of low round picks that we HAVE NOT been good drafting with in the last 5 years..

No we didn't... Collier is a stud... How much do you actually no about Collins?
He's a good fit for our scheme, but he's gonna need to develop. Clark who was a legit 1st round prospect took time to develop as well. Expect a pass rush by committee this year. Collier will see some time out there for sure, but there will be a lot of rotation with the DEs this year.The score player profile
Seahawks replenish pass rush, snatch Collier with 29th pick
He seems like a plug and play DL.
@Anointed One made I good comparison in Bennett
we over drafted him by a round.
btw who is collins?

We no longer have many star players. Three, Wilson, Wagner and perhaps Reed if he doesn’t take a step backwards. Just think about our run especially the Super Bowl years, were we had six or seven stars on defense alone to go with Lynch, Wilson and a healthy Baldwin. What do we do, trade away a top five pass rusher at the young age of 25 away just as he was entering our prime. Our window for being a Super Bowl is over. With Pete and a franchise QB we will be competitive but it will be quite a few years before we are a contender. Pete in one of his first interviews as the Seahawk coach stated he had a major advantage over everybody when it comes to the draft because he recruited all these kids in college. He was so correct with this statement. But as the years have removed him from his college days, he no longer has this advantage, and his recent drafts are just not discovering the gems like he did in his early years. A reality of the NFL, your good players take all the money leaving you losing players, being weak at positions, combined with picking late in the draft over and over leaves you weak. Just how the league is designed, parity.
We didn’t get enough from Green Bay. We gave up a pick worth 800 points and received three picks worth a combined total of 744 points. It would of taken a third fourth round pick to balance it out. Most trades are bang on with the value charts.
As usual you are right on it...where could we put a guy with that speed and talent chasing down QBs on Sunday? And I guarantee Collier would of been there in 2 nd round.Draft a guy who doesn't fit our scheme that well?
