The Seattle Seahawks are relatively set at the tight end position, assuming they re-sign both starter Gerald Everett and backup Will Dissly, who will become unrestricted free agents in a couple of weeks. If either one walks then Seattle will be in the market for a new tight end and the 2022 NFL draft is the best place to find him.
One prospect to watch is Cade Otton, one of Washington’s top three prospects in this year’s draft along with cornberbacks Trent McDuffie and Kyler Gordon – who are projected to be picked in the first and second rounds respectively. Otton may still be around in the third or fourth, which could put him in the Seahawks’ range if the board falls right. Speaking with reporters today at the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine, Otton said that he’s already spoken with the members of the organization and would be happy to stay in Seattle.
Former UW tight end Cade Otton said at Combine today he has met with Seahawks. Course, he also said he’d met with a bunch of other teams. But he says obvious – he’d be more than happy to stay in Seattle. pic.twitter.com/kbn9vviUNq
