The Seahawks used the 29th pick in Thursday’s NFL Draft to add some size to their defensive line, grabbing TCU defensive end L.J. Collier.
Collier is a prototypical 4-3 LDE with excellent length and power.
He improved his ability to locate the ball and get off blocks in 2018.
He turned heads with his ability to overwhelm tackles and interior offensive linemen as a pass-rusher during Senior Bowl week. He chases with good effort and plays faster than timed speed.
