With the 27th pick of the 2020 NFL Draft, the Seahawks selected Jordyn Brooks, a menacing linebacker out of Texas Tech. While many Seahawk fans doubted the pick, as we often do in the current Seahawks era, Pete Caroll and John Scneider have had their reasons and a master plan that can leave fans holding their breath. Brooks is the first linebacker the Seahawks have drafted in the first round since 2009 when they selected Aaron Curry out of Wake Forest. Interestingly, Curry also happens to be a new-hire for the Seahawks as a defensive assistant coach as of this year.
