2023 NFL Draft Preview: Scouting report on Oregon cornerback Christian Gonzalez

As previously discussed, when covering Kelee Ringo, cornerback is a need for the Seahawks defense. Yes, they do have Defensive Rookie of the Year runner up Tariq Woolen, but outside of Woolen, Seattle does not have a whole lot at corner. Tre Brown, recovering from a serious knee injury as a rookie, only played 21 defensive snaps, and rookie Coby Bryant showed flashes of potential but struggled in coverage as a slot corner. Michael Jackson Sr is a good corner who will likely return for 2023 as he is an exclusive rights free agent, but he is more of a CB3 than a CB2 on a playoff team.
