NFL draft 2020 live updates: Who will the Seahawks add with their 7 picks?
By Seattle Times sports staff
While all competitions on the field are still on pause, all eyes turn to the NFL draft, which begins today at 5 p.m. and goes through Saturday. It will be an experience unlike any other as teams and general managers will make selections over video Zoom meetings, while the world watches the novelty of an entirely virtual draft.
Virtual or not, the Seahawks have their work cut out for them this year as they enter the draft with seven picks, including the No. 27 overall pick. Under GM John Schneider and coach Pete Carroll, Seattle has traded out of its top pick every year since 2011 to acquire more picks later in the draft. With obvious holes to fill, will that be the case again this year?
Follow along throughout the weekend as our staff of reporters offers the latest on the Seahawks and the rest of the league throughout the 2020 draft.
