For the second year in a row, the Seattle Seahawks did not trade down with the first pick of the NFL Draft. The team remained at 56th overall and in this deep wide receiver class, Seattle went with D’Wayne Eskridge from Western Michigan.
Eskridge is 24 years old and I’m sure there are some who are tired of the Seahawks taking players who are this old already and just entering the league, but there’s a lot to like about him. He’s got 4.4 speed, excellent acceleration and ability to rack up YAC, and the man really wants to be here!
