The Seattle Seahawks hold the No. 26 pick in the NFL Draft after a stellar 2016 campaign that resulted in a playoff berth, and this team is looking to add an impact player that can help them take another step forward next season. Here are three players the Seahawks should target in the first round of the draft:
1) Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin
Offensive line is a massive need and Ramczyk has potential. There are worries about his hip injury, but he would be an instant starter for Seattle if healthy. Heck, he could even be a starter at left tackle. The bottom line is that he can give Seattle the offensive line help they need, where ever they need it.
2) Garett Bolles, OT, Utah
Another possible offensive lineman, Bolles has potential. A highly touted JUCO recruit, Bolles has projects to have the most upside at tackle. He'll turn 25 and had serious off-the-field issues before getting his act together in college, but for the Seahawks, he's worth the risk - if he's still on the board.
3) David Njoku, TE, Miami
Seattle will probably go offensive line with their first-round pick (and there are a few others tackles they could take, including Alabama's Cam Robinson), but if they don't, Njoku would be an interesting option. Jimmy Graham's future with the team is uncertain, and he'll become a free agent in 2018 - and the team isn't sure if they'll re-sign him or not. Drafting Njoku could allow them to explore a possible trade of Graham (which they have explored before), or at least give them a cheaper replacement if he does leave.
