All y'all wanting a tall & fast WR need to check out Baylor's WR-Jalen Hurd, 6-4/220-'s, est. 4.4's/40. A (former) RB in a long & athletic WR's body with big, 10-1/4"+ hands. He isn't talked about much currently, however after he kills the combine he'll likely be in the 75 to 125 area in rankings. Hurd is going to surprise many at the combine with his workout numbers. The nay sayers will say he's way too "RAW" and/or take exception with his "change of schools" & "change of positions" which will likely impact his draft position. GREAT, after the Seahawk trade downs, the Seahawks can fill a couple of important needs and still get him with a 3-rd round pick, I say that would be a great move.
Check him out, you'll see why I'm very high on him & why I think he would be a great addition to the Seahawks offense with his versatility. Hurd could easily replace the injured RB-Procise & the expensive, under-productive WR-Brown with 1 roster spot upon his selection. Those that liked former RB turned WR Golden Tate, will love Jalen Hurd (+ he's considered a good 3-rd down RB and has some good history running the ball (even at his height), making him a quality RB backup along with his developing acumen at WR. Good coaching (that may take up to a year to gel) will make him a quality WR for the Seahawks. I bet the new OC would love to have his size, speed & skills to work with and could design a number of specific play packages to put Hurd into position to excel, showing looks at slot, wideout, running back + use his size & speed on sweeps, swing passes and wheel routes as well as a lot of crossing patterns in the middle of the field. It's nice that his coaches are high on him and that he's considered a very hard worker that loves the game, that has a familiar Seahawks mantra ring to it.
