Second round: 63rd overall selection - WR Chris Conley, Georgia . . . Yes, the pundits will call this a huge reach, and maybe it is, but Conley has all the earmarks of a Seahawks favorite and a potential star at the position. I've actually moved him up to my 4th ranked WR, although that isn't where he'll go. But he'll out perform most of the guys drafted ahead of him.
Third round: 95th overall selection - DE Frank Clark, Michigan . . . About a round before where he is currently slated to go, but Clark has the length and technique needed to excell at the LEO position.
Fourth round: 112th overall selection# - OG Mark Glowinski, West Virgina . . . Getting closer, but many mocks still have him going undrafted or in the 6th/7th rounds. Too much raw athletic ability to even come close to that value.
Fourth round: 130th overall selection - C Shaq Mason, Georgia Tech . . . He's a project in a zone system after being one of the most powerful drive blockers in college football, but his athletic traits point towards a smooth transition.
Fourth round: 134th overall selection* - OT Rob Crisp, NC State . . . Long and too lean, Crisp needs some time in the gym, but he's got the feet to play LT in the pros.
Fifth round: 167th overall selection - CB Dexter McDonald, Kansas . . . Long athletic CB prospect who bounced from Kansas and back again, but has all the traits the Seahawks look for in an outside corner.
Fifth round: 170th overall selection* - Wr DeAndre Smelter, Georgia Tech . . . The Seahawks can afford to redshirt Smelter for a year of re-hab before seeing if his competitive nature and raw physicality are enough to make an impact at the next level.
# -- pick acquired in a trade
* -- compensatory selection
