"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Colt Lyerla, Oregon (Paul Connors/AP)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;What will the Seattle Seahawks do in the 2014 NFL draft? Keep track of all the predictions made in our mock drafts leading up to Round 1 on May 8.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;March 5, 2014 \u2014 2014 NFL Mock Draft 2.0 (Doug Farrar)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 32:\u00A0&lt;b&gt;David Yankey, OG, Stanford&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;Seahawks line coach Tom Cable has been spackling guard prospects together over the last few years, and at some point, it\u2019s going to catch up to Russell Wilson. Wilson was pressured over 40 percent of the time in the regular season, and more than half the time in the postseason. In addition, there were times when Marshawn Lynch couldn\u2019t even take a handoff before defenders were past Seattle\u2019s guards and on him in the backfield. It\u2019s time for Seattle to take this position more seriously. Yankey is a tough, athletic blocker with experience in different blocking schemes and the right kind of attitude for Seattle\u2019s power-based offense.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Feb. 26, 2014 \u2014 2014 NFL Mock Draft 5.0 (Chris Burke)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 32:\u00A0Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;The rich get much richer. Amaro is a lethal weapon in the passing attack, plus he showed unexpected strength in the combine bench press. That\u2019s important because it may mean Amaro is better equipped than expected\u00A0to handle a blocking role in front of Marshawn Lynch and Russell Wilson. And he already proved time and again at Texas Tech that he can shift out away from the line to smoke linebackers and safeties in the passing game.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 2, pick 64:\u00A0David Yankey, G, Stanford&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;Opinions on Yankey are split, especially after a disappointing combine. The Seahawks need guard help enough to roll the dice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Feb. 19, 2014 \u00A0\u2013 2014 NFL\u00A0&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mock Draft 1.0 (Don Banks)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 32:\u00A0&lt;strong&gt;Davante Adams, WR, Fresno State&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;The Seahawks are deep enough that they won't be desperate for any particular position in the first round, but guard, defensive line and tight end are some of the more likely areas to target. But you can't rule out receiver either. Golden Tate is a free agent, Sidney Rice looks likely to be cut, and it would be nice to get another passing game weapon for quarterback Russell Wilson. Adams has NFL size and is adept at catching the ball in a crowd, with very dependable hands and a strong track record of collegiate production.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Feb. 6, 2014 -- 2014 NFL Mock Draft 1.0 (Doug Farrar)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 32: David Yankey, G, Stanford&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;Seattle\u2019s guards have been average at best since Steve Hutchinson poison-pilled his way out of the Emerald City after the Seahawks\u2019 Super Bowl appearance in February 2006, and the fact that the franchise nabbed its first Lombardi Trophy last Sunday doesn\u2019t erase that issue. Pete Carroll and John Schneider have had great success with low-drafted (Richard Sherman) and undrafted (Doug Baldwin) players from Stanford, and Yankey could fill a major hole at a patchwork position. He\u2019s a tremendously strong blocker with impressive athleticism, and an implicit understanding of NFL-level concepts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jan. 9, 2014 -- 2014 NFL Mock Draft 4.0 (Chris Burke)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 32: Kony Ealy, DE/OLB, Missouri&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;The Seahawks proved last offseason that they never can have too many versatile pass-rushers. That\u2019s exactly what they would get in Ealy, whose stock climbed throughout the season. There is a definite possibility Ealy \u2014 and his teammate Michael Sam \u2014 come off the board earlier (Dallas looks like a fit). Should he last, the Seahawks might not hesitate to snatch up another dangerous defender.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dec. 5, 2013 -- 2014 NFL Mock Draft 3.1 (Chris Burke)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 32: Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:\u00A0&lt;/em&gt;The rich get richer. Amaro\u2019s in the midst of a huge year with the Red Raiders (98 catches for 1,240 yards), and he would absolutely devastate defenses up the seams in Seattle\u2019s efficient offense. Zach Miller has done a serviceable job as Seattle\u2019s tight end, but Amaro would represent a step up at that position.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sept. 24, 2013 -- 2014 NFL Mock Draft 2.0 (Chris Burke)\u00A0&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 31: Colt Lyerla, TE, Oregon&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We said:&lt;/em&gt;\u00A0The Seahawks used a 2013 fifth-round pick on TE Luke Willson. Lyerla\u2019s way, way better. There is very little the Ducks\u2019 star cannot do on offense, and coming from that Oregon system would put him ahead of the curve in Seattle\u2019s attack.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;April 30, 2013 -- 2014 NFL Mock Draft 1.0 (Chris Burke)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Round 1, pick 27: Colt Lyerla, TE, Oregon&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;\n&lt;em&gt;We said:&lt;/em&gt;\u00A0Lyeria made headlines this offseason by suggesting on Twitter that the Sandy Hook tragedy was a government conspiracy. So, maturity could be an issue. His numbers won\u2019t leap off the page \u2014 25 catches for 392 yards and six scores last season \u2014 but Lyeria (6-5, 240) is perfectly built to be an option in a creative offense.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
