5 things to be worried about with the 2016 Seahawks

Most of us seem to think that the Hawks possess a nice stash of young, high-upside corner backs. But which one of them will emerge as a worthy bookend to All Pro Richard Sherman?

It was Lane and DeShawn Shead who tag-teamed that spot from there, and the results were better.
Seattle felt good enough about Lane to give him a long-term deal in the offseason, so he’s the presumed starter there now. But, although we’ve seen flashes of brilliance it’s been in small doses, can he carry the torch full time? If he can, it makes the Seahawk defense even more formidable.
If he can’t, it may expose the one spot you can exploit in the Legion Of Boom.
