26. Seattle Seahawks

DT. Michigan State. Malik McDowell . 26. player. 36. The Seahawks are never afraid to take risks on character if they feel the talent is worth it. Malik McDowell has shown on certain occasions that he can be a special defensive lineman, particularly as a pass rusher. If his motivation can be kept up, he’d be a deadly addition to the L.O.B.

58. Seattle Seahawks

58. player. 36. It really doesn’t matter where they start. The entire Seahawks offensive line needs help. Dion Dawkins fits their profile in that he’s a big, powerful and nasty guard who knows how to open running lanes. Something Seattle has lost the ability to do on a consistent basis.. OG. Temple. Dion Dawkins

90. Seattle Seahawks

36. This kid blew up the combine. An absolute freak of nature at 6’4″ but can run like a corner. His closing speed is impressive, making him an ideal fit for the Seahawks scheme, which demands longer corners. Either that or he also could he a bright future at safety as well.. CB. UConn. Obi Melifonwu . 90. player

102. Seattle Seahawks

102. player. 36. The flurry of picks focused on upside talent continues. Tanoh Kpassagnon really started turning heads at Villanova. He’s 6’7″ with a sculpted body and impressive power in his frame. He’s got all the potential in the world, but as yet lacks the polish of a true pass rusher.. DE. Villanova. Tanoh Kpassagnon

106. Seattle Seahawks

106. player. 36. Seattle is consistent if nothing else in what they target at wide receiver. They like speed. Lots and lots of speed. The combine didn’t show it but Shelton Gibson is a true burner. He can take it over the top or get a short pass and turn it into a long gain. Doesn’t need many targets to hurt a defense.. WR. West Virginia. Shelton Gibson

210. Seattle Seahawks

C. West Virginia. Tyler Orlovsky . 210. player. 36. Another blocker who checks the boxes with power, nastiness and technique. Typically such guys do well in the NFL. He may not be the athlete some would prefer but the competition alone would be welcome.

226. Seattle Seahawks

Michigan. Jeremy Clark . 226. player. 36. A poorly-timed ACL injury really hurt the momentum for Jeremy Clark, who was playing well for Michigan last year. Another long corner who fits the Seattle system who can play that physical, press style.. CB
