Protective line
Seattle requires aid at numerous positions on the offending line, and it might dip into a deep deal with class in the draft even after signing George Fant in totally free company. Under brand-new head coach Mike Macdonald, the group is likewise entirely revamping the back end of its defense after the departures of linebackers Bobby Wagner and Jordyn Brooks in addition to securities Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs. Those spaces were partly filled with some free-agent finalizings, however Seattle might still take a fracture at including some young depth at those areas.

How they did last draft
We offered Seattle a B-plus which appears fitting provided the group appeared to strike on both of its first-rounders. Cornerback Devon Witherspoon was an instant effect gamer and a Pro Bowler, and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba entered his own late in the season after injuries hindered him early. The remainder of the draft class was mainly underwhelming, with second-round RB Zach Charbonnet offering just a couple of highlights and fourth-rounder Anthony Bradford mainly having a hard time at best guard as a novice starter.
Dream dream draft choice
The Seahawks are well-stocked at running back and pass receiver, and they re-signed tight end Noah Fant, so there’s no genuine dream requires in Seattle. Geno Smith is 33 years of ages and fallen back last season, however the group might not resolve QB throughout the draft after trading for Sam Howell. The Seahawks currently have a lot of mouths to feed, so dream supervisors are simply dreaming about Seattle updating its offending line that ranked bottom-five in pass-blocking effectiveness last season.– Dalton Del Don
