My Seahawks shadow draft, 2016 edition

Related Topics: Seattle Seahawks

So the concept is simple; before real Seahawks GM John Schneider makes an actual draft choice, write down who you would take. It’s a chance to get a feel for what it’s like to be a GM, and an opportunity to do something that you can look back on years later and compare, contrast, evaluate….

I thought it would be fun. It was.

I thought it would be easy. It most certainly was not.

First, let’s get right to it. These are my choices compared to who Seattle actually took:

FIRST ROUND, 31ST PICK OVERALL:

Seahawks took – Germain Ifedi, OT, Texas A&M

I took – Kevin Dodd, DE, Clemson

I liked Dodd as a productive pass rusher with length, and I knew he was a VMAC visitor.
