The Seattle Seahawks pretty consistently trade off their first-round spot in the NFL Draft.
But what if the 2020 NFL Draft is different?
The Seahawks are certainly more willing than most teams to make ‘shocking’ picks in the first round as we’ve seen them go with guys like LJ Collier and Rashaad Penny in the last couple of years, so a player like Darrell Taylor is right up their alley.
Talked to a bunch of GMs over the weekend. A couple of guys that will go higher than anticipated:
— Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) April 20, 2020
USC OT Austin Jackson
TCU WR Jalen Reagor
Bama CB Trevon Diggs
TENN Edge Darrell Taylor
This is not a good class of edge rushers. The Seahawks could try to trade down and secure Taylor, a true sleeper in this class with 21 tackles for loss and 16.5 sacks over the last two seasons.
If they wait until the second round where they have two selections, the Seahawks probably won’t get Taylor, whose stock has been soaring.
