Dorian Johnson

Guard, Pitt

Right back to the offensive line for Seattle. Johnson is another stud athlete in this class of offensive lineman. Johnson was a highly regarded tackle prospect who found himself at Pitt. However, in a coaching change Pat Narduzzi and his highly touted offensive line staff noted that Johnson would be better off on the inside at guard. The transfer over was rather smooth, and it can be argued Johnson is a top three guard in the class, if not the top player at the position.

Johnson can compete to start next season, and Pete Caroll is a firm believer that competition in practice brings out the best in games. It could be a great boost to the offensive line as a whole.

Taylor Moton

Guard, Western Michigan

You guessed it, we are hitting this offensive line early and often. There may not be a sure-fire first round offensive lineman, but in the second and third round, there is a good cluster of guys. Moton is another player who checks all of the Seahawks boxes. He is big, athletic, and is versatile in his position. He was a tackle in college but may be a guard in the NFL. Either way, adding in Moton, Johnson and Garcia to a completely bare offensive line group easily set this team up to have a great line in the near future.

Vince Biegel

Linebacker, Wisconsin

With the offensive line completely locked in, we now look to the defensive side of the ball. Next, to K.J. Wright and Bobby Wagner, there is an opening. Cassius Marsh and Kevin Pierre-Louis will take snaps next to the two, but there will be a chance to compete for time at the spot.

Biegel is similar to Bruce Irvin in that he spent most of his college football time on the line of scrimmage, and rushing off of the edge. However, he has the ability to play in space and can play LEO or strong side linebacker in the NFL. At the worst, he brings special teams value and competes in practice. At the best, they found a gem and an edge setter on early downs.
