Steven Kriz’s Post-Draft NFL Power Rankings
By Steven Kriz
5. Seattle Seahawks
It is hard to say someone had a breakout campaign when they are already a Super Bowl winning quarterback, but that is exactly what Russell Wilson did in 2015. Wilson threw for 34 TD’s, vs. 8 INT’s in 2015, and I expect that this kid just continues to grow. The departure on Beast Mode leaves a void to fill, however Thomas Rawls was very effective, and if that isn’t enough, they have 3 rookie running backs they selected in this years draft for a little insurance. While Wilson is certainly getting better at airing it out, Pete Carroll will not let this team abandon the running game. Expect a lot more of the same from this always-fantastic defense, and expect them to be in the running for yet another NFC crown.
