A 'luxury pick' (whatever that means)? National media weigh in on Seahawks drafting Rashaad Penny
RENTON, Wash. – The Seattle Seahawks’ first-round draft pick would’ve been a fantastic second-round draft pick, if you listen to what the national media are saying.But then again, what do they know?Seattle, never known for making the conventional selection, chose San Diego State running back Rashaad Penny with the No. 27 overall pick Thursday after making a trade with the Green Bay Packers to move down in the first round.Penny was the top rusher in the nation last year, but some analysts expressed concerns about the fact he mostly did it against smaller schools, as well as his perceived lack of blocking ability and a bit of a penchant to lose control of the football.Perhaps it goes without saying: Take all of these comments with a very large grain of salt.
