What up 12's Adam here coming at you with another quick vid here with my good buddy Phil

Leidick, host and creator of our what if program here on the Seahawkers podcast channel.

Phil, I know you got an interesting concept today.

How are you doing it and what you got? I'm doing well. I'm doing well, Adam. There's so many what-if things going on all around the Seahawks multiverse. I guess everybody's what-ifing. So maybe I'm just not needed right now. No, this is what you're desperately needed. Yeah. So many what-ifs. We're not doing what- if. We're just going to do something different where I ask you some things about our, our 22 rookies that are going to be what I'm calling sophomore second year players this year. I think it'll be fun. Sweet. I love it. So it sounded like it was whether or not they're going to take a jump, they're going to slump, or I mean, do you not really know? And you're in you're stumped. Like is that basically the gig here? Yes, Adam, you're the ump and you're going to decide. Okay. If they are going to take a jump or they are going to slump or you're kind of just stumped. It could go either way.

So gotcha.

Well,

uh,

you know, it's talk yourself into it season. So right now I think everybody's going to crush it. End of episode. We did it. That's what I thought would happen. That's what most people are hoping for, Adam is that you're predicting jumps for everybody. Because you know, every second year player, they make that big jump that Pete talks about.

Every single time for life.

Yeah.

Nobody can go backwards or not make it that's

for sure okay so honesty here we go we'll go right from our final pick last year round seven pick

233 we picked Doree young the receiver he he made a jump from division two to the NFL. He's athletic. He's versatile.

He had zero catches until week 18, but he was a factor blocking as a fullback from time to time.

Stood out in kick coverage, you may remember, five tackles, down some punts inside the 10.

Adam, is Derek Young going to make a jump slump? Are you stumped about this guy this year? I think he's going to make a jump on special teams. I think he's going to be even more impactful as a gunner in a kickoff coverage and punk coverage. But in terms of offensively, boy, I think it's going to be tough for him.

Unless, you know, D. Eskridge goes out and does D.S. things and gets injured quickly here and, you know, opens that door at wide receiver

four a little more for somebody like Dereke Young.

But I think it's going to be tough for him to see the field offensive.

Okay.

And, yeah, hopefully D is what they keep saying.

My concern is they're hyping up D because they want to trade him, but maybe that's not true. I don't know. I know it's hard not to fall into the hype, man. Like that's the what I'm just a sucker for D.S. Grage, okay? Yeah. Like that's just I know I am. I know I'm the mark.
