Cornerback Myles Bryant
The Seahawks have a type when targeting defensive backs in the later rounds, and Bryant’s 5’9 height and 29 1/2 inch arms certainly don’t fit their typical bill.
However – most believe Bryant will be a slot cornerback at the next level, and with Ugo Amadi the only real nickel on the roster at the moment, it might make sense for the Seahawks to bring Bryant in as an undrafted free agent to compete with Amadi for that role.
Even if he doesn’t win the starting job, which would be a tall order, Bryant could play the part of a gunner on the special teams, a role that has gone to Neiko Thorpe and Akeem King the last few seasons.
Both King and Thorpe are free agents, so there’s an opening for a backup corner and core special teamer – and Bryant’s speed, good open field tackling and relentless attitude make him an ideal replacement if Seattle can snag him after the draft.
