Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll seems to prefer drafting cornerbacks late. It’s tough to blame him, considering he found both Richard Sherman and Tariq Woolen in almost the exact same spot in the fifth round. The 2023 NFL draft class is deepest at cornerback, so Carroll could try to wait around until Day 3 again to find a special talent. Then again, Seattle has been upending all of our expectations thus far in free agency and the same was the case in last year’s draft.
Perhaps it would be wise to throw out what we think we know about this front office and start expecting the unexpected. This new post-free agency mock draft by Doug Farrar at Touchdown Wire has a scenario that certainly qualifies.
