Charlie Claus

Well thank you, Charlie Whitehurst. And a special thanks to Pete Carroll, who is always straddling that line between genius and insanity.

Because of this duo we have moved way up in this years second round, and also hold a 3rd rounder next year. In case no one else is counting, this means we now have 6 picks in the first 3 rounds in 2011, which can either be used to restock the team in the future or traded for better picks this year. It may not seem like such a big thing, given then we already spent a 3rd rounder on Whitehurst and now have to get a new 3rd string QB somehow, but that kinda thinking is for economists and nerds.

I dare say that this is, by far, the best off season move the Bolts have made this year, and it took a crazy man on another team to make it happen.

Best of luck to you, Clipboard Jesus. Congrats on getting paid and on getting a chance to compete for a starting job. I hope you can seize this opportunity and run with it.

Except, of course, when the Bolts play the Seahawks this fall.
