Oct 18, 2014; Tuscaloosa, AL, USA; Alabama Crimson Tide defensive lineman A'Shawn Robinson (86) puts the pressure on Texas A&M Aggies quarterback Kenny Hill (7) at Bryant-Denny Stadium. The Crimson Tide defeated the Aggies 59-0. Mandatory Credit: Marvin Gentry-USA TODAY Sports So the Seahawks have to address their offensive line in the first-round, but unfortunately won't get a top player at this position being in the bottom half of the draft but still an anchor who can be an anchor for this unit. We have the Seahawks selecting LSU offensive tackle Jerald Hawkins here. He is a monster of a man at 6'6" and 309 pounds. Hawkins also adds the versatility to play at either right or left tackle. With Oklahoma State product Russell Okung on the left side, Hawkins could slot in on the right side. The interior of the offensive line might be the more pressing issue, and perhaps Hawkins or current right tackle Garry Gilliam could be pushed into the guard position. The Seahawks just paid Russell Wilson to be their franchise man, and they need to keep him healthy and can't afford to let him be battered and have injuries keep him on the sideline.

20. player. 55. The Pittsburgh need some help on their defense. Why go back to the basics and bolster their defensive line with a player who could be a foundation and anchor of the defensive front for years to come. <p>An interior defensive lineman could be the Steelers focus in the first-round and with Alabama defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson still on the board this late in the draft, he’s a player too good to pass up.</p> <p>Robinson is a 6’4″ 320-pound defensive lineman who can play anywhere along the front, not just at the tackle position. He is a remarkable athlete given his size, with an incredible framework. Robinson is ridiculously strong and can push his blockers back off the line to disrupt the pocket.</p> <p>Interior defensive lineman are also viewed as run defenders first and foremost, and Robinson excels in that area as well. His ability to push blockers back and handle double teams well allows him to clog up running lanes, forcing running backs to adjust and bounce to the outside, slowing them down in the process.</p> <p>The Steelers could be walking away with one of the best draft day steals by getting Robinson in the late first-round.</p>. DT. Alabama. A'Shawn Robinson
