Seahawks Draft Picks: Depth, Not Starters

0:00On March 19th, the Seattle Seahawks head into this year's NFL Draft with prime, late-round picks in the first three rounds thanks to their Super Bowl. Win, last season, General Manager John Schneider has selections at the 32nd spot in Round 1, 64th in Round 2, and 96th in Round 3. A recent profile ball-focused match draft spotlights three strong prospects who could add real depth without forcing them into starting roles right away. After trading veterans like DK Metcalf and Geno Smith last year, Schneider built a championship core and now sits with just four total picks. This draft class isn't seen as elite, but talent lingers late, especially for a contender like Seattle looking to bolster their secondary, line, and receiving core. Fans and analysts see these mock choices as smart fits for Mike McDonald's defense and offense. The buzz is muted compared to last year's Hall of 11 players, but adding versatile pieces could keep the Seahawks dominant without overhauling the roster.

1:03In the mock, Clemson Cornerback, Avion Terrell, stands out for his tackling and zone-covered skills, matching the size of Seattle's current starters. Iowa offensive lineman, Jennings Dunker, brings power to the guard spot, with experience on a top-college line. Oklahoma wide receiver Deon Berks dazzles with rare speed and strength, perfect for slot duties behind stars like Jackson Smith and Jigba. These additions could develop into starters within a couple seasons, giving Schneider flexibility to chase another title while maintaining depth across the board.
