The 2023 NFL Draft is almost upon us and the Seattle Seahawks have quite the decision to make at No. 5 overall. With the best draft capital in the Pete Carroll/John Schneider era, the Seahawks have a legitimate chance to acquire a franchise caliber cornerstone to help take their team to the next level. One such potential player is Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter.
However, Carter comes with plenty of baggage. He was arrested due to his involvement with a street race where two people died. He was not responsible, but showed a concerning lack of judgement by A.) involving himself in it and B.) fleeing the scene before police arrived. Additionally, Carter showed up overweight to his pro day and struggled to complete his workout. It appears the red flags might be a bit too much for the Seahawks to stomach.
