Team Needs

Defensive Line

It is very easy to point out that the Seattle Seahawks need defensive line help. They need anything that they can get, defensive tackle, defensive end, or edge rusher. The uncertainty that Jadeveon Clowney will return to the Seahawks slim to nothing. The Seattle Seahawks were 29th in sacks, 29th in quarterback hits, and 26th in pressures last season. They need players that are going to rush the quarterback and get to the quarterback.

Offensive Tackles

The Seattle Seahawks lost Germain Ifedi and George Fant due to free agency this offseason. Now they are gaping holes at the tackle spots. The Seattle Seahawks have acquired tackle Brandon Shell during free agency that gives you fringe starting value. Also, tackle Duane Brown not getting any younger that could look to find his successor as well in this draft.

Wide Receiver

The Seattle Seahawks hit an absolute home run with getting D.K. Metcalf with the last pick in the second round. The Seahawks also have Tyler Lockett, who is easily becoming Russell Wilson‘s favorite target. If the Seahawks can add another wide receiver that can compliment them, this team could some great things in the future.
