In the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft the Seattle Seahawks added running back Travis Homer with pick 204, which marks the first addition the team has made at the running back position this offseason, a stark departure from years past.
It was barely a year ago that many fans of the team were up in arms, in the wake of the Hawks using their first round pick on Rashaad Penny. Penny looked like a rookie at times and played very well at times during his rookie season, which is not surprising from young players, and his addition to the team continued a pattern of the team adding multiple running backs during the offseason.
