It's Combine Time!

by Doug Farrar on Feb 19, 2009 3:23 AM PST

I'm writing this from beautiful (and flippin' COLD) downtown Indianapolis, where I'm preparing to cover the first day of the Combine with about 400 other media types. I'm here to report for FO and the Washington Post thru Sunday, but anything Seahawks I get here will find its way to Field Gulls. This is my third Combine, and it's always a rush. Any questions? Let me know and I'll answer when I can.

If you get a face-to-face with the head honcho...

Ask him what his top three off-season priorities are in terms of personnel—in order. Then ask, why that particular order.

I doubt Ruskell would be that forthcoming, but you never know. I’m probably more curious about the follow up than the actual priorities.

...We've got an insider at the combine.

That is so flipping awesome, and I even don’t put much stock into combine numbers.

Whatever information you get on who they interview would be good

It would also be good to know what the combine “wonders” are, so that we can go ahead and avoid them.

QBs throwing?

Whey do guys like Sanchez, who haven’t decided whether or not to throw at the combine need to make that decision? Are there other QBs not throwing, other than Stafford?

Thanks, Doug.

I've been to downtown Indy.

It isn’t beautiful. Especially compared to Seattle.

But I’ll just echo what BrianL said and agree that this is so totally awesome that we have an insider at the combine. I love combine numbers, but I love tidbits of insider information even more.

FO did a 'day in the life of a gm' piece a while ago

any kind of info like that specific to Ruskell would be really interesting to me. And anything like you had for Ziggy Hood would be great too. Enjoy the combine!
