NFL Draft: Seattle’s best pick in each round since 2000

The Seattle Seahawks have had a lot of success in the NFL draft, particularly in the early part of the last decade.

The 2020 NFL draft is still expected to occur in about three weeks, and the Seattle Seahawks are gathering as much information as they can about prospective prospects in the challenging COVID-19 times.

The Seahawks are known for finding late round gems, particularly in the Pete Carroll/John Schneider era, and one or two diamonds in the rough would go a long way toward making the 2020 roster even more competitive as they strive for another deep playoff run.

The Seahawks have had their fare share of success all the way through the draft, along with plenty of duds, but there’s no doubt their best run of success – at least in the past 20 years – came just before the team’s back-to-back Super Bowl appearances, when they were able to build the infamous Legion of Boom almost exclusively via the draft.

Here’s a look at the team’s best picks by round in the past two decades, along with a handful of honorable mentions.
