Beginning their rookie minicamp on Friday, the Seahawks announced their undrafted rookie class. Fifteen players comprise this contingent. Here’s the full rundown:

• Emmanuel Beal, LB (Oklahoma)
• Tanner Carew, LS (Oregon)
• Poona Ford, DT (Texas)
• Marcell Frazier, DE (Missouri)
• Jason Hall, LB (Texas)
• Khalid Hill, FB (Michigan)
• Warren Long, LB (Northwestern)
• Brad Lundblade, C (Oklahoma State)
• Marcus Martin, FB (Slippery Rock)
• Skyler Phillips, G (Idaho State)
• Jake Pugh, LB (Florida State)
• Caleb Scott, WR (Vanderbilt)
• Ka’Raun White, WR (West Virginia)
• Taj Williams, WR (TCU)
• Eddy Wilson, DT (Purdue)

Interestingly, this class houses just two offensive line hopefuls. Lundblade was a first-team All-Big 12 selection last year. The Seahawks used just one of their draft choices, a sixth-rounder, on what’s been a troublesome area for the franchise for years. Seattle’s only free agency add here was D.J. Fluker, who worked mostly as a depth piece for an embattled Giants team in 2017.

Seattle brought in three wide receivers after not addressing the position in the draft. All check in at 6-foot-1 or taller. The two fullbacks bring the Seahawks’ total to four, and counting notable fifth-round pick Shaquem Griffin and sixth-rounder Jacob Martin, Seattle’s added six rookie linebackers this year.
