The Seattle Seahawks have finalized their roster for the upcoming season, and it’s time to take a look at how their position groups stack up. With the addition of several key players, the Seahawks have put together a talented roster that could make some noise in the NFC West. Here is a ranking of the Seahawks position groups after finalizing the roster.
1. Quarterback: The Seahawks have one of the best quarterback situations in the NFL with Russell Wilson leading the way. Wilson is one of the most dynamic players in the league and has been a consistent performer for the Seahawks over the past few seasons. Backup Geno Smith provides a reliable option if needed.
2. Wide Receiver: The Seahawks have added some talent to their receiving corps this offseason, bringing in veterans Phillip Dorsett and David Moore. They also have Tyler Lockett, who is one of the most underrated receivers in the league. With these three, plus DK Metcalf and Jaron Brown, the Seahawks have a deep and talented group of pass-catchers.
3. Running Back: The Seahawks have a deep and talented group of running backs. Chris Carson is the lead back, but Rashaad Penny and Travis Homer provide solid depth behind him. The addition of Carlos Hyde adds another experienced option to the mix.
4. Offensive Line: The offensive line is a bit of a question mark for the Seahawks. They have some talented players, like Duane Brown and Mike Iupati, but they are still trying to find the right combination of players to make it work.
5. Defensive Line: The defensive line is one of the strongest position groups on the team. Led by Jarran Reed and Quinton Jefferson, the Seahawks have a deep and talented group of defensive linemen. They also added veteran Ziggy Ansah to bolster their pass rush.
6. Linebacker: The linebacker group is led by Bobby Wagner, who is one of the best linebackers in the league. KJ Wright provides a reliable option next to him, and Shaquem Griffin adds some speed and athleticism to the group.
7. Secondary: The secondary is another strong position group for the Seahawks. Led by Shaquill Griffin and Tre Flowers, the Seahawks have a deep and talented group of defensive backs. They also added Quandre Diggs to bolster their safety group.
The Seahawks have put together a talented roster that should be able to compete in the NFC West this season. With a strong quarterback, deep receiving corps, talented running backs, and solid position groups on both sides of the ball, the Seahawks are poised for success in 2019.
