Seattle Seahawks dream mock draft to start post-Russell Wilson era

Seattle Seahawks dream mock draft, rounds 3-4

3rd round, pick 72: Zyon McCollum, CB, Sam Houston State

Could an FCS prospect at the cornerback position really be part of your “dream” mock draft scenario in the top 75 picks?

In the case of Zyon McCollum, absolutely.

McCollum has everything you look for at the cornerback position physically. He’s 6-foot-4 and has outstanding length, explosiveness, speed, and change of direction skills.

There will be some development required here, but with McCollum’s ball skills, potential versatility in the defensive backfield, and upside, he could be exactly the type of prospect the Seahawks need right now at outside corner.

4th round, pick 109: Myjai Sanders, EDGE, Cincinnati

As of right now, Myjai Sanders is going anywhere from the second round to the fourth round in mock draft projections.

Will his low Scouting Combine weigh-in (under 230 pounds) scare teams off until day three?

It’s possible, which is what makes the Cincinnati star pass rusher part of the Seattle Seahawks “dream” draft.

In this draft class, doubling up off the edge is something we’ll see wise teams do. The Seahawks, as alluded to earlier, have had issues with consistency off the edge and getting a pair of pass rushers like Jermaine Johnson and Myjai Sanders in one class without taking them in the first two rounds?

That would be a dream, indeed.
