Micah Hyatt

Offensive Tackle, Clemson

The Seattle Seahawks were supposed to be one of the best teams in the NFC this season, but they have been anything but through the first two games on their schedule. The problem with the Seahawks has been the offensive line, which used to be such a strength for the team. They need to bring in players to bolster that unit, because at this point, Russell Wilson is just running for his life every time he hikes the ball.

Luckily for the Seahawks, the 2018 NFL draft class is loaded with offensive line talent. One such player is Micah Hyatt, who has been an anchor on the Clemson offensive line for the last couple of seasons. Wilson needs a player like Hyatt protecting his blindside, because he cannot afford to be taking the kinds of hits he has been through the early part of the season.

Due to the lack of talent on the offensive line, the Seahawks offense has been one of the worst in the NFL thus far. That is a joke considering how good a quarterback Wilson is, so they need to address their offensive line issue immediately. Look for Seattle to grab an offensive lineman in April, though Hyatt could actually be gone if the Seahawks pick where they should, which is towards the end of the first round.
