At some point this afternoon, it's likely that someone will release a transcription of John Schneider's press conference today in Indianapolis at the NFL Combine, but for now, a little Twitter version of talking points works for now. Take it away Twitter!
Via Dan(ny) Kadar and Danny O'Neil and gathered by Danny Kelly.

On to the inevitable - the quarterback situation. First, Tarvaris Jackson:
Schneider on T-Jax: In terms of how he played, he did a great job, esp with that offensive line.

Schneider said he was throwing with his shoulder and arm because of a torn pec muscle. "Think he's going to make a lot of progress."

Naturally, he was also asked about the Draft class at QB:
It's a very unique (QB) class. There isn't a standard mold out there. Every guy has a diff niche to him.

#Seahawks GM John Schneider on QB: "Truly, every year we're looking, (but) we're never going to panic."
— Danny O'Neil (@dannyoneil) February 23, 2012
Schneider: At QB, I believe you've gotta have a tough-minded individual.
— Dan Kadar (@MockingTheDraft) February 23, 2012
Schneider on QB: You can really put yourself in a tough situation if you go all in with a guy you feel pressured to take.

More later, hopefully.
