2008 Seattle Seahawks Team Needs

Tight End: Marcus Pollard just signed with the Patriots.  The Seahawks did sign Jeb Putzier, but an upgrade at the position is still vital.

Guard: Chris Gray just finished his 15th season, and he is showing the signs of an aging body.  Last season, Rob Sims had to be benched at various times, due to his inconsistent play.  In other words, Seattle needs help at guard.

Offensive Tackle: It is time for the Seahawks to start looking for their eventual replacement for Walter Jones.  Jones is flirting with his mid-30s, and he has had his share of shoulder injuries that figure to be taking their toll on him.  Look for Seattle to utilize the draft to find a future left tackle.

Defensive Tackle: The Seahawks have adequate defensive linemen, but this unit is definitely not the strength of their team.  Seattle could benefit from looking to draft for some interior impact players.

Draft Candidates: TE Dustin Keller, Purdue, TE Fred Davis, USC, G Roy Schuening, Oregon State, G Eric Young, Tennessee OT Tony Hills, Texas, OT Tyler Polumbus, Colorado, DT Trevor Laws, Notre Dame, DT Landon Cohen, Ohio
