Seattle Seahawks CB’s To Watch For The Draft

2) Eric Rowe, Utah

Another lanky corner, exactly in the Pete Carroll frame. He is 6’1″, 205 lbs and one of the better press corners in 2015 draft class. He ran a 4.45 at the combine, which is a great time, but he doesn’t have the in-game explosion or change of direction that you look for.

However, there is a fix for that.

“‘He’s a long-strider with limited deep speed, so I see him as a Tampa-2 guy or maybe fitting with a defense similar to Seattle’s where he has a good free safety helping over the top.’ — AFC directer of college scouting” -NFL.com
