Moving into the third and final phase of their offseason program this week, the Seattle Seahawks kicked off several positional battles that should play out deep into the summer, including an intriguing competition between free agent signee Evan Brown and fifth-round pick Olu Oluwatimi at center.

Hosts Corbin Smith and Rob Rang discuss and debate whether Brown or Oluwatimi has the inside track to win the starting job at the pivot position for Seattle while breaking down their respective strengths and weaknesses.

Smith and Rang also examine cornerback Tariq Woolen's unexpected knee surgery, what it means for the Seahawks in the secondary moving forward, and take a look at where fourth-round pick Cameron Young fits on the defensive line as a rookie.
