Could you see them draft a LT at 6 or at 14 with W.Jones possibly retiring. |
Good point. I think you'll see most mocks giving the Seahawks an offensive tackle with one of their first two picks.
When I add a 2nd round to my mock, I'll probably give them USC OT
Charles Brown. Obviously, he's a guy Pete Carroll's familiar with, and his lack of girth (6'5", 292 lbs.) is less of a concern in Alex Gibbs' zone blocking scheme. When Gibbs was in Atlanta, he forced all of his o-linemen to get under 300 lbs., which is part of the reason why I'm not sure that
Anthony Davis (6'6", 325 lbs. w/ a history of weight problems) would be a good fit for them in the 1st round.
