Seattle Seahawks: Dueling Mock Drafts 1.0
Second Round, Pick 41 overall
Clint – Lewis Cine, S, Georgia
With the 41st pick, the Seahawks select safety Lewis Cine from the reigning National Champion Georgia Bulldogs. At 6’1″ and 200-pounds, Cine is a hard-hitting downhill safety. His biggest asset is versatility.
In coverage, Cine possesses an incredible ability to diagnose plays and arrive at the ball or the man to deliver bone-jarring hits and break up plays. He sounds like a guy 12s know well. Maybe someone should ask Vernon Davis how those collisions go for the opposing team.
Cine’s play speed is one of the most noticeable things on tape. He is a freak athlete and an instinctive player. Whether it is sideline-to-sideline, or coming downhill, his speed and quickness stands out. This dude has pure football speed, meaning he knows what he’s doing out there. – Draft Dive, Justin Trevisani.

Ed – Cameron Thomas, EDGE, San Diego State
Opinions are somewhat mixed on Cameron Thomas. Some might think him sticking around this long is another steal. Ryan Fowler of TDN called him the best-kept secret in the draft.
During Thomas’ four years at San Diego State, he put on 35 pounds of muscle and leaves the Aztec program at 6’5″, 270-pounds. He’s shown some real skills and thinks the game well. What’s impressive is his tenacity to get to the ball.
Detractors point to the lack of competition he faced in college. Thomas is also not very fast. He won’t speed rush NFL tackles and isn’t strong enough to manhandle them in a 3-4. Since the Seattle Seahawks play in a hybrid system, he could fit in nicely.
