Led by MVP candidate , the won 11 games during the 2019 regular season, the franchise's highest total since 2014. Seattle continued to roll in the postseason, defeating the on the road before dropping a tightly contested game to the in Green Bay.Seattle has addre sed the majority of its roster holes this offseason. In the draft, they
Andrew Macdonald Men Jersey added three players to a defense that finished just 22nd in scoring during the 2019 season. The also selected a pair of tight ends while spending a third-round pick on LSU's , one of the top-rated guards in the 2020 draft. Seattle also added to their stable of running backs when they spent a fourth-round pick on former Miami running back . The Seahawks recently added another significant piece when they acquired two-time Pro Bowl safety from the .With training camp officially here, we decided to project the Seahawks' five biggest training camp position battles, as Seattle continues to prepare for its season-opener against the .1. Weakside linebackerThe Seahawks are surely hoping that Brooks, the team's first-round pick, can quickly develop into a starter while complementing perennial All-Pro . Despite dealing with an injury late in the 2019 season (that caused him to mi s one game), Brooks was still able to record 108 tackles and 20 tackles for lo s during his final season at Texas Tech. While Brooks is currently projected as a Week 1 starter, that may mean that Wright, a 10-year veteran and 2017 Pro Bowler, could be moved over to strong side linebacker. Wright, a starter on Seattle's 2013 championship defense, is expected to be ready for the start of the season after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery. This won't happen, however, unle s Seattle is convinced that Brooks is ready to be a starter when the Seahawks face and the rest of the in Week 1.Brooks' athleticism and experience at the college ranks may help him adjust to the faster than most rookies. A four-year starter Texas Tech, Brooks turned in an impre sive 4.5-second time in the 40-yard dash during the NFL combine. 2. Right guardThe Seahawks made several changes to their offensive line this offseason. B.J. Finney, a former undrafted rookie who became a valuable member of Pittsburgh's offensive line over the past four seasons, is slated to be Seattle's new starting center after parting with former starter . The team will also have to identify a new starting right guard after releasing D.J. Fluker in April. Lewis, the 69th overall pick in the draft, was a two-year starter at right guard for LSU after transferring from Northwest Mi si sippi Community College. A second-team All-SEC performer last season, Lewis played a key role in the Tigers' run to the 2019 national
Radko Gudas Men Jersey championship. Haynes, a 2019 second-round pick out of Wake Forest, didn't play during the entire '19 regular season after undergoing a sports hernia surgery. He finally made his NFL debut during Seattle's victory over the in the wild
Christian Folin Kids Jersey -card round. Hayes should be considered the front-runner to win this battle, with Lewis steadily getting more playing time as the season progre ses.3. No. 3 ReceiverWhile the team's top two receiving spots appear to be solidified, there should be some spirited competition in filling the rest of the receiving spots on the roster. The leader in the clubhouse, as it relates to the team's future No. 3 receiver, is Dorsett, who inked a one-year deal with Seattle this offseason. The 29th overall pick in the 2015, draft, Dorsett caught 124 pa ses and 11 touchdowns during his first five seasons. Last season, his third with the , Dorsett caught a career-high five touchdown pa ses while averaging 13.7 yards per catch.Moore, a fourth-year veteran, should be considered Dorsett's biggest competition. A 6-foot, 215-pound wideout, Moore, Seattle's seventh-round pick in the 2017 draft, appeared in just one game as a rookie before receiving a career-high seven starts in 2018, catching 26 pa ses for 445 yards and five scores that season. Moore received just one start in 2019, catching 17 pa ses for 301 yards and two touchdowns while playing behind and D.K. Metcalf. Another player to keep an eye on here is , who received an eight-game suspension from the NFL late last week. Prior to the NFL's announcement, the Seahawks had reportedly had internal conversations about po sibly signing Brown, a six-time Pro Bowler who worked out with Wilson earlier the summer.4. Tight endSeattle, given their offensive scheme, may elect to have four tight ends on their roster when the 2020 season begins. At this point, there are three Seahawk tight ends that should be considered roster locks: veteran , second-year man (a suming that he has fully recovered from last year's Achilles injury) and rookie . That leaves one po sible opening here, with Hollister and Willson being the front-runner to grab this spot. A dark horse candidate is former LSU tight end, , the Seahawks' final pick in this year's draft.A fourth-round pick, Parkinson caught 87 pa ses and 12 touchdowns during his three seasons at Stanford. And while his blocking will have to improve at the next level, the 6-foot-7, 251-pound Parkinson's speed (he ran a 4.77 in the 40-yard dash at the combine) and versatility (the Cardinal often lined him up in the slot, using him more as a receiver than a tight end at times) will definitely be utilized by Wilson and the Seahawks in 2020. Hollister, after spending his first two seasons with the , enjoyed a solid first season in Seattle in 2019, catching 41 pa ses for 359 yards
Eric Lindros Men Jersey and three touchdowns while helping make up for the lo s of Di sly. During his first start as a Seahawk, Hollister's two touchdown receptions helped Seattle edge the in Week 9, 40-34. The
Brian Propp Women Jersey addition of Parkinson may hurt Hollister, however, as the Seahawks may want more of a blocking tight end to fill their final spot. That may open the door for Willson, an eight-year veteran who re-signed with Seattle during the offseason. Willson's experience within the Seahawks' offense (he was a part-time starter on the Seahawks' 2013 championship team) may give him another advantage in this position battle.5. Running back (1,230 yards, seven touchdowns last season) and free-agent signee should be considered the top two running backs on the depth chart. While Dallas (who averaged an impre sive 5.8 yards per carry during his three years with the Hurricanes) should be considered the favorite to be the team's No. 3 running back, fans shouldn't sleep on Homer, who made an impact on special teams and when he was given opportunities to carry the ball late in the 2019 season. Homer, a 2019 sixth-round pick from Miami (Fla.), rushed for a season-high 62 yards on 10 carries in Seattle's regular season finale against the . He also caught all five of his targets for 30 yards, earning the praise of coach Pete Carroll."We totally expected that (type of performance) from him, and that's all he's ever done,
