Actually... 2 guys...
Stefen Wisniewski, who's going to be resigned by the Jags... Look at how much cap they have and the few players they have to resign. They're going to be making a huge splash in free agency this year and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them franchise Wisniewski.\
Matt Paradis... Broncos starting Center that's been getting coached up by James Cregg and Brian Callahan in a zone blocking spread offense much like ours. He would be a good fit here and the Broncos likely won't have the ability to match an offer on him if they franchise Von Miller, but he's an exclusive rights free agent, which means we'd likely have to give up a pick. Don't think it would be much though, a 3rd day pick on this draft or next year's draft.
In 2014 the Seahawks traded #32 to the Vikings for #40 & #108 which is an early 2nd+4th so i was just going by that.firebee":3c8em7q4 said:massari":3c8em7q4 said:Hoping they can trade #26 for an early 2nd+4th.

If we trade down into the 2nd, we should be able to pick up more than an extra 4th based on value of the picks. I also wouldn't necessarily be opposed to drafting a LB 1st, especially if Jaylon Smith happened to slide to us after we traded down. IMO, he'd be the perfect fit for us at OLB if Irvin isn't resigned. The draft is loaded with OL and DL, so we could pick up a good DT that slides like Nkemdiche, Clark, Chris Jones or Billings with our 2nd pick in the 2nd round and go after OL on the 2nd day, getting guys like Odhiambo, Kirkland, Dahl, Willie Beavers, Avery Young, Austin Blythe, Fahn Cooper, Johnstone, Benenoch all depending on who would be the best fits for what our FO is looking for. If we don't resign Lane, which I hope is the first thing we do in FA; we'll probably try landing Worley out of West Virginia, which might mean reaching a little for him.
If we're going to draft that type of player in the mid rounds, I want Tyler Higbee.delagator7":2hu4uivk said:I wouldn't mind drafting FB Baby Gronkowski, he looks like a beast in the mid-rounds if available
hawkfan68":1r70le5t said:Interesting dilemma. If Derrick Henry is available in the first or second round when the Seahawks pick, do you pick him? With Lynch gone (most likely), there's a need at RB even with Thomas Rawls coming back. Henry could be one those guys that is extremely productive in the NFL. He fits power and physical running schemes. It would be nice 1-2 punch with Rawls/Henry. Here's his profile on NFL.com - http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/derrick-henry?id=2555221
IMO, he's a no brainer pick, if there, in the 2nd. Maybe a good choice in the 1st, if the OL guys like Conklin, Ifedi, Spriggs, and DL guys like Clark, Billings are taken.

I view this as a good year to draft talent regardless of position. Would you pass on drafting a second Earl Thomas because FS isn't on a list of needs?

I don't see the hawks picking Henry. He isn't the kind of runner they like. he isn't elusive. I watched the BCS Championship game (Clemson vs Bama) and came away thinking he reminded me of Colin Kaepernick when he ran. Sure hes fast when he gets to the open field but for a guy that size he should be breaking arm tackles but instead falls down when contacted. not a normal powerback or very elusive. here are some RBs id like to get
Kenneth Dixon LTU
Devontae Booker Utah
Jonathan William Arkansas-He missed 2015 with a foot injury but was highly touted coming into his senior year (before injury of course) wouldn't be surprised if he is a late round/UDFA the hawks go after. his stock plummeted due to not playing this year. will be interesting. reminded me of Rawls.
Also a DT/DE hybrid to keep an eye on for the hawks would be Jonathan Bullard from Florida. he can play inside and out and is listed at 6'3 280lbs~
lots of interesting DTs in this draft. don't be surprised if the hawks don't force an Oline into a 1st round pick and instead go DT. this class is a DT class and I can see the hawks jumping on that and possibly going Oline in FA (Osemele maybe?)
JS did say that Oline would be a priority this offseason but reiterated that they would be picking BPA and not forcing a pick. I would not be surprised if they sign a big name OG like an Osemele and go for a veteran C. than draft Oline maybe 3rd along with their projected 3rd round comp getting a RB (K. Dixon)
although going BPA available and having Zeke Elliot (unlikely I know but not absolutely out of the realm of possibility) sitting there and taking him would be sweet. having someone to take over for Rawls if..IF he goes down or even sharing the backfield with.
