Seahawks’ biggest areas of need

Defensive end

The Seahawks were thin at defensive end heading into the draft, but after dealing Clark to Kansas City they faced an even more immediate need to bolster their pass rush. The selection of TCU’s L.J. Collier with the 29th overall selection in the first round is a start.

Clark alone accounted for nearly a third of the team’s sacks last season (14), and he and defensive tackle Jarran Reed combined accounted for nearly one half. Clark was also a disruptive presence on the line, and one of the speediest in the front seven, with a career-high 27 quarterback hits in 2018. The Seahawks have five defensive ends currently on the roster: Branden Jackson, Rasheem Green, Jacob Martin, Cassius Marsh, Nate Orchard, and Quinton Jefferson, who can also play at defensive tackle.

Secondary

One of the Seahawks’ most consistent contributors, safety Bradley McDougald, returns to this year’s secondary. But the rest of the group, while talented, remains relatively young.

“You won’t find me shaking my head and saying how could you possibly do that (if they make a pick for the secondary),” Brock Huard said earlier this week. “They’re not set at all there, so there’s no question you need to continue to add to the competition in that room.”

The Seahawks addressed this need with the selection of Utah’s Marquise Blair, a hard-hitting safety, in the second round.

Wide receiver

Russell Wilson’s top targets, Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett, remain on the roster for 2019. In fact, nearly all of Seattle’s wide receiver group is set to return this season. However, now that the Seahawks have locked up their $35 million per year franchise quarterback, the Seahawks may look to add a few weapons to Russell Wilson’s arsenal.

The selection of the impressive D.K. Metcalf from Ole Miss, who Seattle traded up in the second round with New England to take, gives the Seahawks a receiver with a big body and incredible speed.
