Seahawks Hiring Former Browns Execs. Eliot Wolf & Alonzo Highsmith As Consultants

Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports that the Seahawks are hiring Eliot Wolf and Alonzo Highsmith as consultants during the draft process this spring. 

Both Wolf and Highsmith have ties to Seahawks GM John Schneider from their time together with the Packers several years ago.

Wolf and Highsmith elected to part ways with the Browns shortly after they hired Andrew Berry as their next GM.  

Wolf, 37, is the son of former Packers GM Ron Wolf. He started off as a pro personnel assistant for the Packers in 2004 and worked his way up to director of football operations in 2016.

After the Packers hired Brian Gutekunst as their GM, Wolf departed for the assistant GM job under John Dorsey.

Wolf has previously come up as a GM candidate.

Highsmith, 54, is a former first-round pick of the Houston Oilers back in 1987. He also played for the Cowboys and Buccaneers over his seven-year career.

Highsmith was hired by the Packers back in 2012 and has been working as their Senior Personnel Executive before departing to become the Browns VP of player personnel for the 2018 season.
