The young guys meet or exceed expectations

Pete Carroll likes his teams young but for the Seahawks to stay successful that means young players need to be good. This means you, L.J. Collier. Collier was a complete bust his in rookie season of 2019. Maybe he was hurt and maybe he was not ready for the NFL, but this has to change this year.

This being a best-case scenario piece, I am going to say that Collier is much better in his second season and gets 8 sacks. But Seattle will get help from other young guys too. First-round draft pick in 2020 Jordyn Brooks will get on the field a lot starting in week three when he understands what he needs to be better. He will hit and hit hard.

The Seahawks slot corner will be manned by second-year Ugo Amadi and he will be very good. In fact, he will lock down the position for three seasons to come.

Third-year tight end Will Dissly will play in 14 games and get 60 receptions and 750 yards. Plus, he will run-block so well he will help Seattle finish fourth in the NFL in rushing yards.

Darrell Taylor and Marquise Blair will also do well but will make bigger impacts in future seasons. And D.K. Metcalf will be a Pro Bowl receiver in 2020.
