For a pick we thought might need to be made in the first, Yankey has fallen down the board like a stone. That’s not entirely bad though, especially if you’re a Seahawk fan. I can only dream of getting the 6’6″, 317 lbs Yankey to complete this already incredibly versatile offensive line.
Not sure how in love the Seahawks are with him, as Tom Cable said he had only targeted two offensive linemen by the time the Hawks picked last in round 2. It is however possible that Yankey is a kid further down the draft board that they like. That would be just fine with me as I feel the line would go from pretty good to great with an addition like his to the lineup alongside the pickup of Britt.
Yankey won’t fall too much further, so the Seahawks will need to get him at either of their first two picks if they want him.
