The Seattle Seahawks went from having no seventh-round picks to having three. Their first one was used on Toledo cornerback Andre Fuller at No. 236 overall, their second one at No. 242 was spent on…

Deven Eastern, DT, Minnesota​


Eastern played exclusively at Minnesota and has 2.5 sacks and five tackles for loss in his final year with the Golden Gophers.

Here’s the rundown on Eastern from Lance Zierlein:

Three-year starter with a long wingspan but inconsistencies in his game and a lack of standout production. Eastern plays with loose upper-body movement that helps him slip blocks and find gaps. He uses his length effectively to disengage when he times it right. However, his high-cut frame and below-average pad level create persistent issues anchoring and maintaining gap integrity, especially against zone blocks. He ends up on the ground too often and hasn’t proven he can create consistent pressure as a rusher. Eastern’s size and length might be best utilized in a wider alignment as an odd-front end.
