Seattle Seahawks: Final Mock Draft
By ColPatnode
Pick 102- Seahawks select Josh Reynolds, WR Texas A&M
I profiled Josh Reynolds back in Mock 3.0:
"One of the biggest problems with the Seahawks’ offense in 2016 came in the red zone. They scored touchdowns on just 47.6 percent of their trips inside the 20. Enter Reynolds, the 6 foot 3 , 193 pound receiver from TAMU. Reynolds body type is best defined as lean, and he can struggle to get off good jams at the line of scrimmage. It’s unlikely he can add much more weight to his frame. If so, he will need to improve his technique to create separation at the next level. What he lacks in strength, he more than makes up for with his ball skills. He excels at high pointing the football, and uses his strong hands to rip the ball away from defenders. Reynolds is more than just a jump ball guy. He is tough across the middle, and is not afraid to take big hits to secure catches. With the injury to Tyler Lockett, and the uncertainty in the future of Jimmy Graham and Jermaine Kearse in Seattle, Reynolds can be the next red zone weapon for Russell Wilson."
Reynolds also recently told a reporter that Seattle was one of the teams he had talked to the most. The team still has not added any wide receivers to its roster, so they should use one of their third round picks to solidify the position.
