Why the Seahawks won't draft a Cornerback in the 1st round.

 Why the Seahawks won't draft a Cornerback in the 1st  round.

I have seen many mock drafts that have Seattle drafting a corner in the first round such as Dre’       Kirkpatrick, CB, Alabama, or Morris Claiborne, CB, LSU. Seattle has gotten good corner play from Brandon Browner, and Richard Sherman. Sherman started the year as the dime corner and was pressed into the starting Line Up after injuries to Marcus Trufant and Walter Thurmond. Thurmond will be back in 2012 and Trufant as well if the hawks decide to bring him back. So Seattle will have depth at Corner and has more pressing needs such as Quarterback and a pass rusher. Seattle may want Robert Griffin III if he is available which isn't likely. He may go as high as the second overall pick. Most likely if the Rams whom hold the 2nd overall pick decide to trade the pick to a quarterback thirsty team it would be the Redskins, Dolphins, or Browns long before trading it to a Division Rival. So Seattle may opt to draft a Defensive End such as Nick Perry From USC , Whom Pete Carrol helped recruit. Or a player such as Quinton Coples out of North Carolina.
