Could Seattle Explore Trading Up From Fifth Overall? - Locked On Seahawks Podcast

After visiting the VMAC earlier this week, the Seattle Seahawks have Will Anderson on the radar. But could they like him enough to trade up from fifth overall to draft him?

In this story:

Recently bringing the stud pass rusher in for a top-30 visit, the Seattle Seahawks clearly have strong interest in Alabama's Will Anderson Jr. But to get the unanimous All-American, general manager John Schneider likely will have to package picks to move up.

Host Corbin Smith and guest Dan Viens of the Seahawks Forever podcast discuss the possibility of Seattle sliding as high as second overall to nab Anderson or another top prospect and whether or not they should be trying to do so.

Smith and Viens also examine top targets Schneider should be coveting with two first round selections, break down positions of strength on day three to watch, and build their own draft for the first four selections in a condensed Blue Friday mock draft.
