![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 SportsSo 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.

player. 51. <p>There is no question that the St. Louis Rams are being held back by the ineptness of their passing offense. The Nick Foles experiment has been a colossal failure. As a team they are averaging just 173.1 yards through the air. This despite the ongoing threat of emerging superstar running back Todd Gurley. That is why they drafted quarterback in the first round and why they go after a receiver here.</p> <p>As of now not a single Rams pass target has more than 500 yards on the season. Remember there are just three games left. Kenny Britt is the leader with 480 while Tavon Austin has four touchdowns. Neither has shown they have the capability of being that true No. 1 target a quarterback can rely on. Perhaps a good way to help is by bringing in more competition.</p> <p>Don’t mistake his regular size for not being a threat. Will Fuller is dangerous. His game is based on a mix of speed, quickness and savvy. He has good acceleration that allows him to get to full speed almost immediately and runs proper routes in order to set up corners and get himself open. Body control and awareness are also key strengths. Quarterbacks learn to trust him, and that’s something the Rams don’t have but desperately need.</p>. WR. Notre Dame. Will Fuller. 43
Next: No. 44
