Alright...after having some time to sit down and look at multiple player's NFL draft profiles and game-play, I'd like to have a re-do of my mock draft. I included screenshots of trades I accepted (2) to get good value from this meat and potatoes draft. I was mostly looking for positions of need but also for the future as well. I was also looking for players with very physical and smashmouth play.
^ ^ ^
I thought this was a great value trade, so I accepted it.

^ ^ ^
Then this trade came along, and I thought it was great value as well so I accepted it. Now the fun begins!
Grey Zabel (LT, LG, C, RT)
Starting out with LG, I decided to make the obvious choice at BPA in my mock, which was Grey Zabel. This guy has played 4 out of 5 OLine positions, and depending on how he fares I'm sticking him at LG undoubtedly. Maybe not a starter just yet, give him some time to get his feet wet and refine some rough edges, then let him loose. One more point of interest is that he turned down significant NIL offers from other schools just to play on the same team as his brother. Here's some video breakdown:
Mike Green (Edge)
Up next at Edge we have Mike Green. He was the BPA as well and he has comparisons to Alex Highsmith, which is a compliment. He's a high energy pass rusher who's very physical and slightly violent. You want Seahawks smashmouth defense? Add this guy to your roster and watch him go. He had 17 sacks last season at Marshall, the most in Major College Football. Here's a 2 minute breakdown:
Harold Fannin Jr. (TE)
Next up on the list is TE Harold Fannin Jr. He wasn't the BPA, but he was the bext TE available and I didn't have to reach to grab him. His playstyle is comparable to Jordan Reed, with YAC and hard to bring down; that's the type of TE I'd like to see the Seahawks take, period. He also had record-breaking single-season catch production with decent hands. He does need to work on his route tree and run blocking but that can be taught; also some strength and conditioning wouldn't hurt. There's quite a bit of upside here. Here's a 2 minute breakdown:
Jonah Saviinaea (RG)
Another OLineman! Jonah has experience at RT, but I have him pushed inside to RG (possible RT backup). He has heavy hands and a wide, dense build possible of blocking off double-teams; also has a mean streak (which I personally love). Give him some strength and conditioning and reps and he could possibly shine as our RG of the future. Here's some film breakdown:
Jalen Royals (WR)
The trenches aren't the only thing getting built up! Here I took Royals to give the Hawks another hard-to-take-down offensive weapon with someone who knows how to high-point the ball and box out defenders! He works hard to catch the ball and not afraid to get dirty while adjusting his body to make the reception. He doesn't have burner speed like DK but he is fast and he has everything else we wanted DK to have. Here's some film breakdown:
Quinn Ewers (QB)
We finally have a QBOTF to get excited about. As he won't have to immediately start, he can sit and be groomed as our starter in 2-3 years while Darnold finishes through his contract here and take his time to learn the pros without any pressure or time limit to adapt. He will THRIVE under Kubiak's scheme when ready, and finally we can be done with bridge QB's after Darnold. He has good pocket presence, and can escape when he feels the pressure coming in. He's also good with improv if the play breaks down and can throw on the run; and his arm strength and accuracy are good as well. Here's some film breakdown:

Savion Williams (WR)
I chose to double dip at WR here by taking a very intreresting player that I can't help but root for. His NFL player comparison is Cordarelle Patterson, and that's not an exaggeration. He has experience in a WC offense as well as WR and RB. He's insanely versatile and his agility is great for a guy his size and weight. I think he'd fit in real well with the scheme here, and he's another player tough to bring down. He ALSO knows how to high-point the ball and box out defenders. Here's some film breakdown:

Oluwafemi Oladejo (Edge)
I double dipped here at Edge because you can never have too many in your rotation to spell the others. This pick is more of a development pick to polish and hopefully see shine over time, but he has a high motor and won't stop until the whistle blows. With the Demarcus Lawrence trade, maybe Oluwafemi can learn some rushing moves to add to his arsenal from one of the best! Like I said, he would be a development player but give him a couple of years and I think he'd show great progress to earn more reps. Here's some film breakdown:

Nazir Stackhouse (NT)
Another addition to the development list, Nazir Stackhouse could use a lot of polishing and refining. He's a big space eater/run stuffer, and it helps that he could have a mentor in Jarran Reed to get better. He's more stocky and powerful as opposed to twitchy and agile, but good value at this pick. Here's some highlights, as I couldn't find any breakdown videos:

Patrick Jenkins (DT)
Lastly I chose Patrick Jenkins here as this was BPA in my opinion. He's a diamond in the rough guy, and he looks promising. He'll need to hit the weight room to get stronger, but he has a high motor to finish the play and a really high ceiling with the right coaching. Here's some highlights:

And that's it folks! In case you didn't notice, I picked guys with high motors, potentially high ceilings, and players with gritty playstyle that will bring the hurt to anyone that squares up to them. It's the Seahawk way, and I feel like this would be a solid draft overall to send us in the right direction. Let me know what you think!
