Seattle Seahawks post-draft 53-man roster projection

The Seattle Seahawks are a long ways away from the 2020 regular season, but here’s our first take at what the 53-man roster could look like.

Cornerbacks (6): Ugo Amadi, Quinton Dunbar, Tre Flowers, Shaquill Griffin, Linden Stephens, Neiko Thorpe

The Seahawks are all set with the starters on the outside, with Pro Bowler Shaquill Griffin and recently acquired Quinton Dunbar expected to line up at left and right corner, respectively.

That will push Tre Flowers to the bench, where he will likely work to become more versatile – potentially even learning some safety, his natural position in college.

Ugo Amadi is the presumed starter at nickelback, and the versatile DB and special teamer will once again be a valuable part of this team in 2020. Neiko Thorpe was re-signed and will resume his role as the team’s special teams captain as well as a backup around the secondary.

The surprise here is Stephens, but I think he will take on the role of Akeem King last year, as a core special teamer and backup nickel corner. John Schneider specifically mentioned Stephens, who the team recently claimed off waivers from the Dolphins, in a post draft press conference when asked about the competition at nickel corner.
