**Millerās pick prediction: Malachi Lawrence, Edge, UCF**
Another hot name over the past month has been Lawrence. Many rival teams thought this pick could be a trade-out point for the Seahawks, who have a draft-low four selections, to pick up additional draft capital. āI think Seattle moves out ⦠maybe theyāre the team Arizona swaps with, but itās hard to imagine an inner-division trade,ā said a rival GM. If Seattle doesnāt find a desirable trade partner, adding Lawrenceās speed would be a dream fit for Mike MacDonaldās defense. Staying at ESPN and going to someone who covers the team for a living, Brady Henderson projects cornerback Chris Johnson for the Seahawks. **Brady Hendersonās pick: Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State**
With a league-low four selections, the Seahawks probably will look to trade back. But in this scenario, they go with a replacement for Riq Woolen by taking Johnson. Jadarian Price was also a consideration given Kenneth Walker IIIās departure. But Seattleās offseason has been defined by disciplined decisions; GM John Schneider sticking to his board to take Johnson would be another one. Weāre still at ESPN, but this time flipping to Jordan Reid. Remember when Seattle took Germain Ifedi out of Texas A&M with the last pick of the first round in 2016? In this instance, Reid has Seattle taking guard Chase Bisontis from the same school. **Chase Bisontis, G, Texas A&M**
After drafting Grey Zabel last year, the Seahawks can continue to add to their interior offensive line. Bisontis would provide immediate competition at right guard for Anthony Bradford, who is entering a contract year next season. Bisontis is a dependable blocker with a lot of upside. The last ESPN one is Mel Kiper Jr, who has the Seahawks going with running back Jadarian Price out of Notre Dame. **Jadarian Price, RB, Notre Dame**
Seattle has to make every pick count, with four total selections (fewest in the league) and picking at the end of each round. I originally considered projecting Arizona to trade up into this spot simply because the Seahawks would welcome any additional draft capital, but I wasnāt convinced weād actually get an in-division trade like that involving a quarterback pick. Instead, Seattle stays home and closes out Round 1 with our second running back off the board. The āPrice to Seattleā take is echoed by NFL.comās Lance Zierlein. **Jadarian Price, RB, Notre Dame**
John Schneider told the media he hopes to move back ā no surprise, with Seattle holding a league-low four picks ā but Price makes sense at No. 32, whether the selection is made by the RB-hungry āHawks or another team looking to add a talented runner. Moving over to The Athletic and their beat writersā mock, Michael-Shawn Dugar has one of my sneaky Seahawks candidates in the trenches: Ohio State DT Kayden McDonald. **32. Seattle Seahawks: Kayden McDonald, DT, Ohio State**
The Seahawks won the Super Bowl behind one of the leagueās best defensive fronts. Even though theyāre bringing everyone back, thereās no harm in making a strong position group even stronger. Because Seattle doesnāt have an urgent need at the position, McDonald, a stout run defender with pass-rush upside, would be able to learn from veterans like Leonard Williams and Jarran Reed before stepping into a bigger role down the line. ā *Michael-Shawn Dugar* Letās ring up The Ringer and Todd McShay, whose mocks have been all over the shop lately. He predicts the Seahawks also take SDSU corner Chris Johnson. **Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State**
A trade back is most likelyātheyād prefer to take Notre Dame RB Jadarian Price at a better value spot and pick up an extra selection in the process. But if Seattle canāt move, Chris Johnson would make sense, as they need a playmaker at corner alongside Devon Witherspoon and recently extended Josh Jobe after losing Riq Woolen. A jaunt over to CBS Sports and thereās a shout for Toledo safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren from columnist Ryan Wilson. **Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, S, Toledo**
I would have loved to target Chase Bisontis here and pencil him in at right guard. And while I like Keylan Rutledge, I donāt like him in Round 1. Instead, after losing Coby Bryant to free agency, McNeil-Warren is the pick. Ty Okada was a pleasant surprise last season, and he has one more year left on his contract, but McNeil-Warren is a ball-hawking center fielder who can also be a thumper in downhill run support. Flipping over to Yahoo Sports, theyāve got the Seahawks bringing in Clemson corner Avieon Terrell, younger brother of current Falcons star A.J. Terrell. **32. Seattle Seahawks ā Avieon Terrell, CB, Clemson**
The Seahawks close out the final mock draft of the year by adding another tough defensive back to their defense. Tariq Woolen is off to Philadelphia and while they re-signed Josh Jobe to a small extension, adding another premium resource to that room is never a bad idea. Like his brother A.J. who plays for the Falcons, Avieon isnāt the most explosive athlete, but heās physical with clean movement skills. Heās a great add for a secondary that already has someone like Devon Witherspoon and would be a clean fit in Mike Macdonaldās defense. Weāll wrap this up with one more shout for a cornerback, except this one is Colton Hood from Tennessee. FTN Fantasyās Jeff Ratcliffe has a quick blurb: **32. Seattle Seahawks ā Colton Hood CB (Tennessee)**
Seattle gets a throwback player who would have fit well in the Legion of Boom. Hood is a physical corner who disrupts at the line. Two shouts for Jadarian Price, two shouts for Chris Johnson, one for Colton Hood, one for Avieon Terrell, one Kayden McDonald, one for Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, one for Malachi Lawrence, and one for Chase Bisontis. A nice mix of predictions and beliefs that mostly seem plausible, although Iād be surprised at this point if they chose Price at 32 (or even early in round two after a trade). Stay tuned for Field Gullsā staff predictions for pick 32 on Thursday morning!
