First Round: Quincy Wilson, CB, Florida

Quincy Wilson is a very talented cornerback prospect that has the fire and confidence that will help him excel in this defense. At 6-1, Wilson is over 200 pounds and plays a physical game. He needs some refinement, but his personality will fit perfectly in Seattle.

Some feel like because of his size, Wilson projects best to safety at the next level, but the great thing about the Seattle defense is, guys like this can play different roles. His versatility won’t lead to more question marks at the next level, but will allow defensive coordinators to put him in positions to succeed, whether as a nickel defensive back or safety or outside corner.

I think this would be a great first round pick for the Seahawks, identifying someone that fits their culture defensively and someone that can help give them a big boost right away.
