Seahawks

The Seahawks were able to take advantage of the turmoil created by the Redskins regime change and send a fifth-round pick for talented starting CB Quinton Dunbar, who wanted a new contract from Washington. Dunbar’s former DB coach with the Redskins, Ray Horton, says Seattle may have gotten a similar player to another guy they used a fifth-round pick on a few years back. 

“To me, it would be Richard Sherman,” Horton said via Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times. “Because of the style of play, the hands, the anticipation, the (being a) former wide receiver, the competitiveness. Really, that’s what you are getting is a young Richard Sherman. And this kid is hungry. He wants to be good.”
