Field Gulls
After a wild opening College Football Playoff game that saw Alabama come back from 17 down to defeat the Oklahoma Sooners on the road, we have three more opening round games on Saturday. While there may be some question as to whether all the teams belong, there is no doubt to be some players that could be possible Seattle Seahawks targets come draft season.
While the Seattle Seahawks continue to rest and enjoy their semi-bye after a historic win on Thursday night, these are some of the players on each CFP team that I think the Seahawks front office will be watching today.
Keionte Scott, DB, Miami – With so much uncertainty with multiple players in the Seahawks secondary hitting free agency, drafting a defensive back feels very likely. Before his injury, Scott was one of the best nickle corners in all of college football. With him possibly back from injury for their game against the Aggies, he’s an intriguing name to watch.
Amad Moten, DT, Miami – Moten is one of my favorite defensive tackle prospects that nobody is talking about. This class may lack star power, but it is deep in the trenches and at the tackle spot. Moten is a solid rush defender, but has some of the best tape and skill set when it comes to generating a pass rush.
KC Concepcion, WR, TA&M – While I wouldn’t bet on the Seahawks going wide receiver, if they wanted to upgrade from Cooper Kupp, or fail to re-sign Rasheed Shaheed, wideout becomes a need quickly. Concepcion is one of the most gifted receivers in this class. A shifty home run threat from the slot position, Concepcion has 57 receptions with over 900 yards and 10 touchdowns for an explosive Aggies offense.
Chase Bisontis, G, TA&M – Hold on, hear me out. I feel the Germain Ifedi trauma, but Bisontis is a better prospect in my opinion. A talented run blocker that was a question mark in the pass protection before the season started, Bisontis has become one of the best pass blocking guards in all of college football this year. His development has made him a top 60 prospect, and I would be very aggressive about drafting him if I was Seattle.
Shadre Hurst, G, Tulane – Tulane is a well coached team, as the Florida Gators agree by hiring their head coach, but this is a polite way in saying I don’t currently have many draftable NFL prospects this year from the AAC champions. Hurst is the one draftable guy that I like on this team. An All-American by Sporting News, Hurst had a strong season. He is a little undersized and when you watch his tape, I did see some comparisons to Christian Haynes, so take that for what it’s worth.
Zxavian Harris, DT, Ole Miss– Another defensive tackle that I like in this draft class, Harris is a top...
