Seattle Seahawks full 2020 NFL mock draft
By John Buhler
Fifth Round
Seattle does not have a fifth-round pick this year. This stems from a trade made with the Detroit Lions mid-season last year for defensive back Quandre Diggs. The No. 172 pick went Detroit’s way, and Seattle also got a 2021 seventh-round pick from the Lions in this deal. Detroit would trade this No. 172 pick to the New England Patriots for safety Duron Harmon.
Sixth Round
Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. RB. Raymond Calais. 214. player. 36. Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns
If you think the Seahawks have enough running backs, think again. They had to bring Marshawn Lynch out of retirement down the stretch because of cluster injuries at the position. Had players like Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny been healthy, maybe the Seahawks win multiple playoff games. So let’s give them Raymond Calais out of Louisiana-Lafayette with the No. 214 pick.
Seventh Round
Seattle does not have a seventh-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. This stems from a trade made with the Patriots for tight end Jacob Hollister. The No. 241 overall pick this spring belongs to New England. Though they haven’t traded it yet, there is a chance the Patriots could move this as well as any of their picks to move up and get a quality player or two out of their reach in a given round.

Overall, the Seahawks should be able to come out of the 2020 NFL Draft in pretty good shape. Deciding if they want an offensive tackle, a safety or an edge player at the tail-end of round one will mold how the rest of their draft plans go. Having two second-round picks and two fourth-round picks could help them add quality depth to their roster in day two.
