Ranking the Seahawks greatest need by position for the 2020 NFL draft

The Seahawks have needs even after their latest offseason moves. Here is where Seattle’s greatest needs are heading into the 2020 NFL draft.

Hello, 12s. thank you for allowing me to take up some of your time here on your Saturday. Hopefully, you are all well and safe. Speaking of the Seahawks, they have been doing pretty well over the last decade, but heading into the 2020 NFL draft, the team still has positions that need upgrading.

Seattle should still be in a good position for the playoffs next season and the season after that. Every year there will be some position units more in need than others, of course, but Seattle seems to keep some of the same problems: Offensive and defensive lines. And every year the Seahawks pick near the bottom of the first round (or trade completely out of the first round) so not drafting extremely high-end guys is a reason they always have these issues.

For a fan, that is a good problem for your favorite team to have. Kind of like Seahawks general manager John Schneider would have to publicly apologize by saying something such as, “Sorry we are so good every year that we can’t get that one really high draft pick that we can plug in at defensive end.”

How should the Seahawks approach the 2020 draft? Maybe by looking at which players will help them most at the positions that need help the most, instead of just going with the best player available at the time (in other words, don’t draft a Rashaad Penny just because Seattle has the chance to). Here is how the Seahawks positions rank – from least needy to most needy – two weeks before the draft and whether they will get help from it.
