We have no problem with this pick. Cross wasn’t our favorite OT prospect, but he has sweet feet and is a natural pass protector now, even as a redshirt sophomore. But as a run blocker? We just don’t know. Is Pete Carroll going to start slinging the rock now that Russell Wilson is gone? It’s simply a departure from the type of tackle they typically have gone for.

This fits what Seattle seeks. Mafe is a Bruce Irvin-ish pass rusher who needs work as a run defender but brings energy and closing ability. He got better every day at the Senior Bowl and has come a long way over five seasons at Minnesota. There was late Round 1 buzz on him.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Pete Carroll loves running backs, and he gets another one here — the Seahawks' fourth RB selection since 2018. Walker has shortcomings in the pass game but was a massive star last season with his home-run hitting ability and rare open-field vision. He's also tough, breaking countless tackles last season. Walker will be good for them, no doubt. But was this a massive need?

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Seattle might have drafted its two starting tackles in this draft class, and both are gifted pass protectors with nice feet. Lucas has been consistent since 2019. He's similar to Charles Cross, another Air Raid tackle, which can create confusion as to the identity of the Seahawks' offense. Why draft a running back in Round 2 and take two tackles whose biggest concern is their run blocking? Odd.
