Spencer Rattler draft projection: 3 best NFL landing spots for South Carolina’s QB

1) Seattle Seahawks

Geno Smith is not getting any younger, and John Schneider needs a contingency plan

Someone here may be asking why a resurgent team like the Seattle Seahawks will draft a quarterback, even though Geno Smith has been stellar.

Two reasons.

First, his primary backup Drew Lock is a free agent, and it is unsure whether he will stay with the team. Second, Smith himself is 33 years old; and while he is still a highly intelligent player, he does not have finite durability.

Enter Spencer Rattler. He is young enough to learn under the two-time Pro Bowler and potentially succeed him; plus he will get to work with the likes of Kenneth Walker III, DK Metcalf, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
