Seahawks have 2 iDL in PFF’s top 32 grades for 2022 season

Most folks expect the Seahawks to use their first pick in the 2023 NFL draft on an interior defensive lineman. The main reason was Seattle’s issues defending the run during the 2022 season. While it was a team failure, the interior rotation got a lot of the flak for their issues against the run.

However, Pro Football Focus seems to think highly of what at least two of the Seahawks’ iDL did this year. Both Shelby Harris and Al Woods graded out among their top 32 in the league. Here’s how they stack up compared the competition.
