2020 NFL Mock Draft: Jalen Hurts goes to Colts, Dolphins pair Tua with Jeudy
Concerns about the Seattle Seahawks coming into this year, even after the addition of Jadeveon Clowney, may have been overblown. This team has done enough to climb to a 4-1 start and look like a possible contender in the NFC. Then again, Russell Wilson has been playing the best football of his career and the Seahawks could stand to help him out on the opposite side of the ball.
As good as Jarran Reed has the potential to be, he needs consistent and reliable help on the defensive interior, all due respect to Poona Ford. Alabama’s Raekwon Davis is the obvious pick then, a behemoth that clogs gaps but also has the potential as a pass-rusher to be a real force on the interior. Pairing him with Reed would make for a scary good combo in Seattle.
The San Francisco 49ers have been impressive, even if their schedule has been a bit weak to start the 2019 NFL season. The only remaining undefeated team in the NFC, the Niners defense has looked incredibly good, as has their rushing attack. And with Jimmy Garoppolo providing Kyle Shanahan with a steady hand, they’ve simply been rolling. That doesn’t mean they can stop building for future success, though.
Currently injured left tackle Joe Staley has been a stalwart for the 49ers for many years. However, it’s clear that his best days are behind him and the Niners should look to pair someone with Mike McGlinchey for the long haul. Prince Tega-Wanogho is the guy, a big athlete that may need time to develop but can do so with San Francisco as long as Staley sticks around a bit longer.
