USA TODAY mock projects defensive tackle to Seahawks in round 1

Now that the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine is all wrapped up, every draft pundit and analyst who covers football in some way, shape or form, is publishing his or her latest mock after seeing the numbers and workouts from last week.

Nearly every mock that has been released since then has the Seahawks selecting a defensive player in the first round and Nate Davis of USA TODAY Sports is no different.

Davis has Seattle snagging defensive tackle Ross Blacklockout of TCU with the No. 27 overall pick.

“Good chance he’s a better prospect than former Horned Frogs teammate L.J. Collier, Seattle’s top pick last year,” Davis chimes.

“Regardless, looks like the Seahawks will likely be in dire need of D-line reinforcements.”

With Jadeveon Clowney still unsigned to a new deal that would keep him in the Emerald City, it is not far fetched the Seahawks would be looking to beef up their defensive line, however, things could change drastically following the start of free agency and the new league year.
