Evaluating College QBs, Bobby Wagner’s Return & More From John Schneider On Seattle Sports 710AM

Evaluating College QBs, Bobby Wagner’s Return & More From John Schneider On Seattle Sports 710AM


“It’s fun,” said Schneider. “We actually just did it two minutes ago here. We got lined up exactly where they were supposed to be like we done this before, like we knock this stuff out now. Throwing 120 yards—no, he was really impressive. Really great athlete, great young man, and he turns 21 on May 22. He’s got a ton of physical talent, there’s no question about it. There’s definitely questions there, like there are with all these guys. He’s like 6-6 as a starter, new staff here this past year with Coach Napier. But really impressive workout, he did a great job. He had fun, he was loose, and he had a really great time with his teammates.”

While Wyman and Stelton couldn’t get Schneider to rank Alabama’s Bryce Young, Ohio State’s C.J. Stroud, Kentucky’s Will Levis or Richardson – he did discuss being transparent with returning quarterbacks Geno Smith and Drew Lock about the draft process prior to their extensions.

“In our exit interviews with Geno and Drew, we told both those guys ‘Hey look we haven’t picked up here in a long, long time. And there’s a chance, can’t say we will or we won’t. We’d love to have you guys both back, but we don’t know if we’ll have to take a quarterback or we’re not. We just don’t know yet,'” Schneider said. “So those guys were in the loop in terms of everything we have going on with all these quarterback studies this year. We actually started doing (the selfies) because Greg Olson, when he was with the Raiders, they traveled around and saw some guys. So he was like, ‘Hey we’ve got to do this selfie.’ So we did, and we gave it to the PR department and it just took off from there.”

“Full transparency,” said Schneider. “Pete had a conversation, and Clint (Hurtt) had a conversation with Bobby about what things are going to look like. And expectations and roles—obviously I’m not going to share that—but just a clear picture of what things will look like. As clear as they can be, because we don’t know how things are going to go with guys’ rehabs and all that. Trying to get Devin and Bobby out there obviously to start out. And as soon as Jordyn gets back, hopefully we’ll get him in the mix and get him going as well. ACL’s are never a fun deal to come back from.”
