Former Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jake Heaps stated on 710 ESPN Seattle that the team may attempt to make a splashy offseason move late in the offseason like they did last year by acquiring Jadeveon Clowney.
“I definitely think the Seahawks are going to make a late offseason acquisition. Now the question is what position will that be,” Heaps said.
Heaps thinks if the Seahawks are planning to make a big move, fans can keep big names like defensive ends Jadeveon Clowney, Everson Griffen and Yannick Ngakoue in mind.
“Is that going to be Jadeveon Clowney and Everson Griffen, who have not signed up to this point, surprisingly?” Heaps said. “… I think (they) are somebody that you can definitely keep an eye on along with Yannick Ngakoue also being a possibility as well.”
The Seahawks could also look at wide receivers and defensive tackles according to Heaps, even though the team is stacked at the former position.
“The other two positions you have to look at are receiver – the obvious being Josh Gordon or Antonio Brown,” he said. “I think those two names are absolutely on the table for the Seattle Seahawks when you look at the receiver position,” he said. “And third and final, I think defensive tackle is still a position that when I look at this group, I am very concerned about the lack of run-stopping ability and depth across that defensive tackle position.”
The Seahawks obtaining another impact player would certainly help their chances of being a true Super Bowl contender in 2020.
