The 2015 NFL Draft gets underway this Thursday night. For most NFL teams, that is. The Seattle Seahawks are not scheduled to be part of the festivities on night one this year because of their trade for Jimmy Graham in March. Seattle’s first pick won’t be off the board all the way until No. 63, if of course the powers that be decide not to trade up.

There are some clear needs that must be addressed over the weekend, including: guard, center and wide receiver.

It would be pretty shocking if Seattle didn’t take at least one prospect at each of those three positions. Cornerback is also a possibility later on in the draft, as it famously has been in year’s past with gem pickups like Richard Sherman.

So with Seattle’s team needs and the big picture in mind, here are five prospects that fit the bill for the Seahawks in the 2015 NFL Draft.
