NFL Mock Draft 2016: Post-Scouting Combine edition

36. <p>Andrew Billings is a freak in the best possible.</p> <p>The 6-foot-2, 300-plus pound defensive tackle put on an incredible show at the NFL combine, impressing the masses with his explosiveness and athleticism. Billings did not necessarily need to blow everyone away with his measurables, but it did not hurt his stock by any means, and his production at Baylor was impressive, including a 5.5-sack season in 2015.</p> <p>The Seahawks are often linked to offensive line help in this class, and it would not be a surprise to see some insurance added in the event that Russell Okung gets away (as many expect) in free agency. Protecting Russell Wilson for the long-term would be a wise move, but at the same time, Seattle is an organization that often drafts the best player available, and that would be Billings in this spot.</p> <p>Seattle’s defensive line wasn’t <em>quite </em>as dominant during the 2015 season as it has been in recent years, but Billings has the upside of an All-Pro player and the Seahawks shouldn’t pass on that. Drafting for need is something that lesser organizations would almost certainly do here, but it isn’t as if the Seahawks don’t have room for improvement at defensive tackle, and Billings is a monster.</p>.
