Doesn't address our needs at OT and CB, but it sure makes our run game interesting.

:lol:
1) Lynch isn't coming back in 2016
2) There's literally no way Zeke falls to the 4th
3) While I really don't see us taking a RB at 26, if he's a Top 10 player on the Seahawks board and he falls to them and the other players on the board don't merit the 26th overall pick.. I mean it's not impossible to happen.
But realistically, no, Zeke Elliott will not be a Seahawk but its not for the reasons you listed.

you are right, I was being a little sarcastic on what I wrote because I really don't believe that Elliott will be there at 26, nor do I think Seattle will be looking for a RB in the 1st round (if they moved up it is not to take a RB). having said that I believe that Elliott is the best running back in the draft, not only because of his speed, ability to catch the ball and that he only wants to run north and South but watching him block as a back is really awesome. he has got to be one of the best blocking backs in college (including any quasi fullbacks that are used just to block).

Hasselbeck":13a87cad said:Agreed.. I like Zeke a lot, and if Rawls didn't emerge then I'd be hoping he'd fall to 26.. but really I hope we go with a vet and C-Mike to back up Rawls in 2016 and draft a RB in 2017 when the class is (to take a page out of Peaches book)

It's like the 2014 WR class, only for RB's. That's when we should draft someone. 2016 needs to be all about the OL and restoring depth on defense.
