The Seattle Seahawks had a great run with Russell Wilson and the Legion of Boom, but the NFL is a business and memories fade like the sun peeking over the tip of Mount Washington.

WIth literally just hours away until the 2022 NFL Draft gets underway from the glitz and glamor of Vegas, general managers and coaches are hunkered in bunker-style conference rooms making calls, second-guessing, silently staring at their draft boards.

Two of the top EDGE pass rushers in the 2022 class have much different stories, styles and evaluations but are getting linked to one well-known West Coast team in need of playmakers at nearly every position.

According to Peter Schrager of the NFL Network, there is chatter that Oregon defensive end Kayvion Thibodeux and/or Florida State EDGE specialist Jermaine Johnson II could slip and the Seattle Sehawks are seeking to add one or the other.

While Seattle Seahawks fans may not be thrilled at these two options with so much electric talent that may be available with the No. 9 overall pick, it’s clear Pete Carroll may believe an elite pass rusher will suddenly propel the squad into contention again, but a full-scale rebuild feels more logical.
