Ive Done The Trades, You Make The Selections

I thought it would be fun to do a realistic hypothetical trade excercise given the draft tendecies of the Seahawks.

Each trade is made with a team trying to move up rather than the Seahawks looking to move down. However, I tried to get fair value for boths sides.

First Trade:
Seahawks #26, #56, #225
To Cleveland For:
#32, #77, #99, #100

Second Trade:
Seahawks #99 (via Cleveland)
To Detroit For:
#111, #151

Third Trade:
Seahawks #124, #247
To Titans For:
#140, #193, #222

You have 12 Selections:

2, #32 (early)
3, #77 (mid)
3, #91 (late)
3, #97 (late)
4, #100 (early)
4, #111 (early mid)
5, #140 (early)
5, #151 (early mid)
5, #171 (late)
6, #193 (mid)
6, #215 (late)
7, #222 (early)

What is your best case draft scenario with these 12 picks if you had to draft at least:

2 OL
2 DL
1 RB
1 LB
1 DB
1 QB
2 WR/TE/FB

Whoa thats a lot of picks.

What I think is realistic.

Love this. DL is totally cranked up and interior OL is shored up with two quality prospects but do you feel Bullard will be available mid-3rd round?

At some point there is going to be a run on things other then DT and I don't think Bullard for scheme wise with most teams.

Really believe it's us and Atl in it for him.

32) Kevin Dodd DE

151) Tyler Ervin RB

Offensive Selections:
2, #32: OL, Germain Ifredi (OT)
3, #97: OL, Connor McGovern (OC)
4, #100: QB, Dak Prescott
4, #111: RB, Alex Collins
5, #151: WR, Devon Cajuste
6, #193: OL, Rees Odhiambo (OG)
6, #215: FB, Dan Vitale

Defensive Selections:
3, #77: DL, Javon Hargrave
3, #91: LB, Josh Perry
5, #140: SS, Travis Feeney*
5, #171: DE, Anthony Zettel
7, #222: DT, Justin Zimmer

* Its a fantasy of mine of developing Feeney back into a safety or perhaps a money backer (S/LBer hybrid) in which the Cards use Deonne Buccannon.

All I know is coming out of college, Kam Chancellor and Travis Feeney are pretty much carbon copies of each other in size and length measurements. Kam was probably much stronger and more aggressive but Feeney is probably more naturally fluid and a twitch more athletic.

I wouldnt ask Feeney to be the next Kam. However, if Feeney could just become an average all around safety but with elite pass-rushing ability as a blitzer. That could add a new and dangerous element to Seahawks D.

Using SBNation's overall rankings

2, #32 (early) Nick Martin, C/G, Notre Dame
3, #77 (mid) Nick Vannett, TE, Ohio State
3, #91 (late) Deion Jones, OLB, LSU
3, #97 (late) Kenyan Drake, RB, Alabama
4, #100 (early) Joe Dahl, OT/G, Wash St
4, #111 (early mid) Willie Henry, DT, Michigan
5, #140 (early) Charles Tapper, DE, Oklahoma
5, #151 (early mid) Travis Feeney, OLB, Washington
5, #171 (late) Paul McRoberts, WR, SE Missouri St
6, #193 (mid) Graham Glasgow, C/G, Michigan
6, #215 (late) Vernon Adams, QB, Oregon
7, #222 (early) Devon Cajuste, WR, Stanford

I bent the rules a little bit cause I didn't choose a DB. Feeney or Jones could potentially be Safeties. I don't particularly like any CB's past the early first round. Not a whole lot of depth there in the draft that I can see.

I am intrigued by how well Martin and Dahl player together during their "all star games" which made me want to pick up the duo. Hawks love versatility which basically explains my picks. Jaylon Smith dropping to the 6th round would be great don't know if it will happen but got to figure if he does the hawks (along with pretty much every team im sure ) will nab him.
