Keith MyersHOST
I don't know.
Keith MyersHOST
I think Drake Thomas deserves a nod toward that, you know, at who's playing the best.
Keith MyersHOST
He's had a couple of phenomenal games.
Bill AlvstadHOST
It's just such an interesting thought exercise because you've mentioned a whole bunch of players.
Al GaldiHOST
So many good players on the Seahawks defense.
Al GaldiHOST
Interior defensive lineman Leonard Williams, edge defender Demarcus Lawrence, inside linebackers Ernest Jones IV and Drake Thomas, cornerback Devin Witherspoon.
Al GaldiHOST
We on Thursday morning had this exchange between commanders insider Ben Standing of Last Man Standing on Substack and David Blau.

With regards to Seattle, Mike McDonald's obviously come in there and done a good job.

Al GaldiHOST
Second and goal for Washington at Seattle's 2 with 739 left in the fourth quarter.
Al GaldiHOST
Daniels was sacked by Seahawks inside linebacker Drake Thomas for a two-yard loss.
Al GaldiHOST
Thomas in tackling Daniels spun him down to the ground and Daniels while being tackled had his left arm bent backward in a grotesque way.
Mookie AlexanderPANELIST
This auxiliary pass rush sort of rotation where you've got Iman Mori as another viable threat who can line up at the edge.
Mookie AlexanderPANELIST
And then didn't Drake Thomas have some snaps lining up at edge in the Arizona game too? Mike McDonald just
Dan ViensPANELIST
called Drake Thomas their best edge setter.
Dan ViensPANELIST
Did you catch that this
Mookie AlexanderPANELIST
week? I don't know about that.
Gee ScottGUEST
Mm-hmm.
Brock HuardHOST
And, and JSN fits in that camp with Drake Thomas, right? With Devin Witherspoon, with s- with Byron Murphy, with so many of these Seahawks, G.
Gee ScottGUEST
Yeah.
Brock HuardHOST
Chris Myers, you know, said this anecdote on the air on Sunday from their production meeting from Mike McDonald, where Mike was like, "We've got a lot of guys that don't look the part.
Brock HuardHOST
He plays linebacker 60% of the time.
Brock HuardHOST
He's 180 pounds.
Brock HuardHOST
We've got Drake Thomas setting edges.
Brock HuardHOST
He's 5'10", right? We got Byron Murphy in double teams.
Mookie AlexanderPANELIST
This auxiliary pass rush sort of rotation where you've got Iman Mori as another viable threat who can line up at the edge.
Mookie AlexanderPANELIST
And then didn't Drake Thomas have some, you know, have some snaps lining up at edge in the Arizona game too? And he's more of
Dan ViensPANELIST
a guy.
Dan ViensPANELIST
Drake Thomas is their best edge setter.
Dan ViensPANELIST
Did you catch that this week?
Mookie AlexanderPANELIST
Yeah.
Brian MiracleHOST
Is there any players that we haven't already talked about that you would like to specifically bring up that knowing this comes out on Friday, that there's a chance that our listeners, our viewers can get? Is there any names you want to give them that if they're still out there, go grab
Curtis LittleHOST
them? Drake Thomas.
Curtis LittleHOST
Seattle, nine tackles, then seven tackles with a sack.
Curtis LittleHOST
He's holding his role in the defense.
Dave WymanHOST
He was complaining about, [laughs] about that.
Dave WymanHOST
But just the standard that they set, but also just when you look at them, like, the, the way they line up, they'll bring Nicky Manuwari up and, and... or Drake Thomas coming off the edge or, you know, Spoon sometimes is playing, like, a linebacker type of position.
Dave WymanHOST
What do you, what do you see from that defense that would give you a hard time?
Matt HasselbeckGUEST
I mean, that, that's not even the stuff that I think about.
Anthony ArmstrongHOST
Mm-hmm.
Lofa TatupuGUEST
Like, normally there's a lot of talking going, "If you see something, say something." But just the look between, um, the linebackers, Drake Thomas and, and EJ, um, and they already know, "Okay, I'm, I'm taking the chance.
Lofa TatupuGUEST
Like, you gotta back me up, either fold over the top, do something." But, like...
Lofa TatupuGUEST
Or, or take, "I'm taking the blitz, you're going to coverage." And that's what caused a lot of confusion for the offense.
John BoyleHOST
And when it's their time, they are ready, and they come in and play really good ball, Ty Okada being one of them.
John BoyleHOST
Drake Thomas has been phenomenal the last two seasons.
John BoyleHOST
It's just, like, what they do here.
Jen MuellerHOST
And I think that points to their ability to teach.
Dave WymanHOST
unbelievable.
Dave WymanHOST
So, yeah, and then you see Drake coming off the edge.
Dave WymanHOST
Sometimes it's even a worry when he gets out there.
Dave WymanHOST
So, yeah, I mean, I just think they're hard to predict.
