Seahawks draft blogs, Rob Staten, joining us now in the Emerald Queen Casino Sportsbook hotline.

Rob, we have new Seahawks to talk about eight, in fact. Credit to John Schneider turning four picks into eight before we get to a lot of those day three guys. I want to just start with a very general. Your single favorite pick, the one that made you most excited from this class, was who? Bo Stevens. I think anytime that you can get a lineman from Iowa, it's a good thing. You've kind of got to do it. So I had him as a player who could go on day two. It was surprising that he lasted. And he wasn't the only one. Like Emmanuel Pregnone lasted a lot longer than I think people expected as well. So to see him there at the start of round five, and the Seahawks clearly thought this is a bit of an opportunity here.

We're going to use some... lot longer than I think people expected as well. So to see him there at the start of round five

and the Seahawks clearly thought this is a bit of an opportunity here. We're going to use some of

our stop for next year to go and get him and they bring him in. And now you've got third best zone

blocking guard in the draft coming in. Everybody at Iowa loves him, won back to back years leadership

awards for the way that he carried himself on and off the field. And he can come in and compete with Anthony Bradford this year. And the worst case scenario is perhaps you've got somebody who could take over from him in a year's time. So I think that was my, that was the one that had me sort of celebrating the most over the weekend. Yeah, I think we all did.

That's why John and them made the move to go get that young man. All-American, all Big Ten, and no one took a bite at him. So yeah, I was excited about that one too. But I like Bud. I like what Bud is going to bring to the table. I thought they were fine at the safety position with Ty O'Cotta. I wasn't sure if they're going to go safety. But when you watch

the film, the tape, what do you see and like out of butt? Playmaker, you know, somebody who is

always around the ball and he tips a lot of passes. He picked a lot of them off. He had 15

interceptions in college. I think it was just interesting to sort of see when you do watch the

tape how close he was to a few more interceptions. And you can use him interesting to sort of see when you do watch the tape how close

he was to a few more interceptions. And you can use him in a lot of different areas. At the senior

bowl, he was just one of those players who you're watching all of the reps in the 1V1s and

then in the scrimmages. And he constantly stood out. He made the play of the week in Mobile,

this crazy interception that just looked impossible to make.

He just, it just leapt off the screen when you're watching the senior bowl. So it's not a surprise

that they were interested in. High character guy, very athletic, playmaker. And when you look at
