Nick Harris, Guard, Washington
The Seahawks have likely seen the last of Justin Britt, their starting center, who is under contract through 2020 but is a cut candidate with a cap hit of over $11 million dollars next season.
Joey Hunt, Britt’s replacement while he recovers from ACL surgery, is set to hit free agency after this season, leaving Seattle with just Ethan Pocic next year if they move on from Britt.
Enter Harris. Harris is an undersized, athletic center with a high-football IQ and strong understanding of how to use his leverage to be successful.
He’s also played some guard in his career, giving him that flexibility that Carroll craves in his offensive linemen.
If Britt isn’t in the mix next year, don’t be surprise to see Seattle target a versatile center prospect in the draft – and Harris would be high on the watchlist.
