About this episode

Seattle Seahawks NFL Draft Focus: Cornerback Depth

The Seattle Seahawks, with pick thirty-two in the first round, are expected to target a cornerback to address their thin depth at the position. With free agents Josh Jobe and Riq Woolen potentially leaving, Devon Witherspoon is their only solid starter under contract. Mock drafts suggest a decent crop of cornerbacks available, aligning with General Manager John Schneiders preference for drafting over free agency. Top prospects like Mansoor Delane and Jermond McCoy may go earlier, but others like South Carolinas Brandon Cisse and Tennessees Colton Hood could be available. San Diego States Chris Johnson, a ball hawk with versatility in zone and man coverage, is a standout option who could slot right into the secondary.

Their current depth is thin, especially a free agent like Josh Job and Rick Willen leave this month. Devon Witherspoon stands as their only solid starter under contract, heading into next season. Mock Drafts, after the scouting combine, largely agree on this need, showing a decent crop of cornerbacks available. Final manager John Schneider, favors building through the draft over splashing cash in free agency, particularly with offensive priorities. Offseason Top prospects like LSU's Mansour Delane and Tennessee's Jermon McCoy should go earlier, but others will linger. Fans and analysts are buzzing about options like South Carolina's Brandon Sissy and Tennessee's Colton Hood, who pop up frequently in projections. Getting back slightly remains a smart play too, allowing Seattle to stockpile picks while grabbing talent. This approach fits coach Mike McDonald's defensive scheme perfectly.

1:03One stand out is San Diego State's Chris Johnson, who lit up the combine with a 440-40 yard dash at 6 feet and 193 pounds. His senior year featured four interceptions, two returned for touchdowns, proving he's a ball-hawk with versatility in zone and man coverage. We think it's slot right into the secondary outside, or in the slot addressing immediate gaps without much risk.
