The Seattle Seahawks have a bunch of issues on both sides of the ball, and through the first two weeks of the season, they are still in search of their first win. The Seahawks went into Denver and lost to the Broncos in Week 1, which is understandable, and then went on the road again in Week 2 to play the Chicago Bears, who beat them on Monday Night Football.

For Seattle, the problem isn’t a starting quarterback, which is usually the problem for those teams that pick in the first ten selections. Russell Wilson is one of the best quarterbacks in the league, but it is getting hard for him to show that, thanks to the fact that he is pretty much running for his life on every play.

If Wilson is ever going to get this team back to a Super Bowl, he needs help up front, and that is where the Seahawks should go with their first round pick next April. Greg Little from Ole Miss is a nasty offensive tackle, and someone who could slide right in and start, and that is exactly what the doctor ordered for a Seattle team that is going backwards in the NFC West.

The Los Angeles Rams seemingly are going to coast to the division title, so this could be a year that sees the Seahawks pick in the top-10. They made a bunch of player, and coaching moves this past offseason, and this feels like year one of a rebuild in Seattle, as they begin to bring in pieces to help their number on asset in Wilson.
