Entering the NFL Draft on Thursday the Seahawks had arguably six holes to fill, four of which were greater than the other two. The primary needs were addressing the Offensive Line (twice) adding a Wide Receiver and a Kick/Punt Returner. The secondary needs were adding another pass rusher and a corner.
When it came to the actual order in which to draft the positions, I believe the Seahawks got it right. Defensive End is one of the positions where the talent drops off very quickly from round to round. Along with Left tackles and Quarterbacks, if you want to get a quality player at these prime positions you better do it early.
