After Seahawks backup quarterback Trevone Boykin was arrested for a second time in two weeks on Thursday, one could question whether Seattle should take a quarterback in this year’s draft.
Seattle’s current number of only seven draft picks does not lend Seattle to taking risks with any choice. The Seahawks, though, may be asking themselves what the bigger risk is: Boykin’s unsteady recent past and possibilities in the future or another young quarterback? Boykin’s Thursday arrest was not due to a new incident but occurred because of his late March arrest for public intoxication and drug possession.
